Rubbish ramen is not new to Melbourne
-
This dish of thin wheat noodles in broth is a staple at Wagamama
-
But in London several restaurants have popped up here recently that are dedicated to it
-
The perfect end to a boozy night out is a steaming bowl of noodle soup full of slices of roast pork
-
The ramen at this new stall is big and bad
-
A variety of ramen made with long simmered bone broth (20 hours in this case)
-
Had a flavour so intense it was reminiscent of a Sunday roast
-
Tonkotsu also serves Tokyo Spicy soy sauce pork and chicken stock topped with pulled chilli pork
-
The flavours are big and bold
-
The staff are friendly Tonkotsu is a whole lot of fun as long as you don't mind a short wait for your rightful spot at the table of ramen
-
I think it may just about be safe to say that we are finally shrugging off the clinging cloak of winter
-
By that I mean it is no longer snowing in April
-
The temperature was biting and the wind was bitter
-
I shared my desire for a good hot slurping with Mel in the hope that she&rsquo
-
She always seems to know the best places to eat
-
Our restaurant Tonkotsu is named after the lip smacking
-
Silky consistency is created by cooking pork bones for up to 18 hours
-
The result is a milky and life affirming bowl of liquid providing the perfect medium for their incredible homemade noodles to swim about in and compete for centre stage
-
About how a noodle machine was shipped all the way from Japan for Tonkotsu to make theirs fresh each day
-
Soho (who knows what I was thinking) and joining Mel and Lea at the table half an hour late
-
T I would have happily sat on my own as the anticipation to eat all of the ramen was almost overwhelming by this stage
-
Having made good headway with their bowls of bounty
-
Pork and chicken stock with medium think noodles topped with smoked haddock
-
After having previously read that the gyoza dumplings were made by hand on the premises fresh each day
-
Leaving without sampling these in addition was not an option &ndash
-
Both dishes arrived swiftly and there was no person in Soho happier than I at the moment they were presented to me (possibly exclude those involved in any &lsquo
-
The dumplings were wonderful &ndash
-
The ramen was served with a large flat wooden spoon and chopsticks &ndash
-
The portion was generous and the flavours able to elevate even the most melancholy of souls &ndash
-
Deep and warming and meaty and completely wonderful with still crunchy greens floating on the surface
-
I realised it was likely I would have preferred what Lea had chosen
-
11) where the choice of meat was pork belly
-
My bowl instead contained smoked haddock and while I was expecting a lack of meaty flavour
-
I believe they were marinated and were just so savoury
-
Few things go better with eggs than salt
-
Top buttons were discretely undone and my belly was swishing about with all of the fabulous liquid it had devoured
-
This lends to an almost rubbery outer texture with ice cream within and is certainly a novel dessert for me and quite fun to eat
-
The flavours if I recall correctly were black sesame
-
I had just broken a tooth so was on soft food only and Ade had the beginning of a stinking cold
-
Anything that takes that long to cook is worth trying out
-
The restaurant is the little sister of our favourite local (well local to work) Tsuru where we have yet to find a better katsu curry
-
The post we wrote about Tsuru was one of our first ever
-
Just half an hour later I head there with one girlfriend
-
Tonkotsu's so called 'authenticity' is a little dry
-
We had both been here separately once before with our friends
-
So we knew it would be good this is just my first chance to blog about it
-
I continue to be impressed by Tonkotsu the overall taste and quality you get is very authentic
-
The actual noodles are very fresh
-
Their seasoned egg is my favourite
-
I would say that they are very different
-
Casual atmosphere of Tonkotsu more personally (BD is a little more trendy in my opinion)
-
Yet the texture is completely wrong
-
D had a mouthful of that the tonkotsu a sea salt based broth flavoured with pork bones with a mildly disconcerting appearance
-
So perhaps my choice with pork and chicken was the better option after all
-
The meat inside was as flavoursome as you would expect of something that had imparted such flavour to its surrounding liquid
-
D get a seat but was a little anxious we might have to wait a while
-
Which the restaurant is named and I had what was called Tokyo Ramen
-
We were hoping that one of them was going to be the spicy one we had read about but I guess the menu changes every now and again
-
The noodles were the thin kind
-
Were topped with big slices of fatty
-
Pork belly is always good but this seemed to be extrarich in flavour
-
Perhaps soaking up some of the meatiness from the very broth it was sitting in
-
Our waitresses were all very friendly
-
Even if one was slightly barmy &ndash
-
The Tokyo Ramen I ordered was fantabulous too
-
T bore you with a long sales pitch and are not pushy at all to purchase certain things of the menu
-
The ambience itself is warm and welcoming with a modern and clean feel
-
The menu at Tonkotsu is predominately Ramen based
-
Is a type of Japanese noodle usually served in a warm broth with other vegetables and meats
-
There is also the option to have ramen noodles served cold with a Japanese salad
-
The starters are more varied and include the Japanese dumpling Gyoza in either a pork or chicken variant
-
The ramen that is served on your table can look small in size
-
As the meal is surprisingly filling
-
Was a ramen disn served in a beautifully flavoured broth with a large slice of meat
-
Given that the restaurant is located in the trendy Soho area which is within walking distance of London&rsquo
-
This is a definite visit for any lover of Ramen noodles as well as those whose palates are more in favour of foods from the east
-
Given that the majority of the menu is ramen based
-
This ramen place is not an authentic Japanese place
-
Their ramen is my favourite
-
The tonkotsu ramen with cloudy pork and sea salt base is to die for and the egg is amazing (had to order extra egg
-
The Mochi ice cream is ok as that's the only dessert they have at the moment
-
I must say I was quite enamoured by it's flavours and taste
-
Topped it all off with the 12 year old Yamakazi whiskey
-
The other day I was in Soho trying to get into Koya
-
Prawn gyoza were good but nothing comparable to Rock Lobsta gyoza
-
The best ramen in London the Tonkotsu Ramen is a delicious kind of creamy goodness
-
Very cosy place but the ramen here is very tasteless and bland I think it for people who not use to Asian food or first time trying aka beginners
-
/ the staff here are very impatient and taken quite a while to serve us
-
I had the Tonkotsu ramen and when I left it alone for awhile while socialising with my friends
-
Oolong tea and dumplings and it cost more than my ramen xD not the best ramen place I'm afraid
-
Nice place to have a chit chat with your friends
-
Wifi password is tonkotsuw1d
-
Oh my gosh the broth is soooo rich
-
Mid way through I wondered whether this Tonkotsu ramen is good for my waist line
-
You'll be glad to hear the portions are generous and you get more succulent pork belly than at other ramen establishments
-
The broth which we know is the key to a good ramen is adequate slightly under seasoned for my taste but others may like it
-
Usually) and pork which are good addition
-
An exciting thing about this is that you always end up eating something hearty
-
Great cold ramen with shrimps and crab meat
-
Would've preferred if I didn't have to share a table with other customers
-
Had the ramen which was okay although a little bland
-
The prawn gyoza was brilliant though
-
Portions are pretty good and pricing is reasonable
-
The reason was that all the staff were new
-
Hugely disappointed and unsatisfied with the service
-
I think some work is needed to get Tonkotsu (Soho) back on track
-
I always leave with a nice warmth in my stomach and a smile on my face
-
They also offer a vegetarian ramen which is perfect for my vegetarian boyfriend as it is usually difficult to find vegetarian ramen broths
-
I took What The Cook to Tonkotsu one Friday evening for ramen and was seated straight away
-
The Hiya Yakko Tofu was simply served fresh and cold
-
Skip the appetisers and cocktails and stick with wine (or sake
-
Tonkotsu ramen is pretty good
-
Not the best in London but convenient enough with a few branches to have a feed
-
Good luck on the queue thing) we stumbled onto Tonkotsu just as the herd in front of us were seated and out of the way
-
Ian had a Tonkotsu with a Louis CK so called because you supposedly laugh out loud when you drink it
-
Not sure about that but it was a very nice way to drink tequila
-
The tonkonsu was rich and creamy as it should be
-
Ands with a dash of the chilli oil was spectacular
-
I've grown to realize is a sign of quality
-
Tonkotsu broth is nice and creamy without feeling oily or heavy
-
Trying to get a table somewhere in Soho without a reservation is a nightmare
-
Shared a tonkotsu ramen and the creamy broth was everything we wanted and more
-
The noodles were perfect with a bit of bite
-
I had the tonkotsu ramen and though for the most part I enjoyed it the broth was a little thin for me
-
What was really good though was the gyoza which was advertised on the menu as being freshly made and it tasted like it
-
It was cooked perfectly and practically dripping with juices when you bite into it
-
I was more than happy with this bowl &ndash
-
We both had gyoza to start which were well made but a little ungenerous at just 3 per portion
-
The signature tonkotsu ramen was delicious with 18 hour skow cooked pork and a perfect soft boiled egg
-
Very large portion of food which was a highlight
-
The Tonkotsu ramen was loaded with pork and tasted especially good on a cold December day
