Loved this event! As a ramen enthusiast, Japan lover, and overall noodle junkie, this was right up my alley.
The staff at Noodles definitely took care of us - an entire spread of appetizers: edamame, menma (bamboo shoots in chili oil), sriracha broccoli, and gyoza. I got to try vegetarian friendly options of the above (broccoli and gyoza) and it was great! ventured out for something I wouldn't have ordered and loved it!
There was then one of each of their Donburi (sashimi over rice) - my favorite two were the spicy crab and the spicy scallops and uni. Think poke bowl but not overwhelming with so many toppings but full of flavor
For the ramen, I got the spicy crab miso ramen. It was a ton of food. But the broth was rich, noodles have an appropriate bite to them (and are house made from their Chicago location, cool!). Also there was a giant lump of crab meat too.
Mochi ice cream topped it all off and I was stuffed. My husband actually was so jealous of the event that he came to eat at Strings after our event and the staff continued to be very helpful. He got the level 3 hell ramen and it was great. The broth was very flavorful and not just spicy. But it was definitely spicy.
We would love to become regulars here because we love it so much. Thank you to Giles and the staff for hosting us and looking forward to more time spent there!
