Kyoto Sept 2019 : Tsukemen Dinner


I'm writing this entry during the Circuit Break a.k.a. lockdown of Singapore's Covid-19 situation, so it's really hard on my stomach! No dining in are currently allowed in Singapore, and one of the food I am badly missing is Tsukemen from Menya Musashi. Apparently there was a famous Tsukemen restaurant nearby where we live, so one day, my husband's classmates recommended we all go there for dinner. Since it was nearby, and it was those traditional ramen store, we had to queue to go in as it wasn't open yet. Tsukemen is like ramen, but the noodles are served dry, with a side of soup/dipping sauce. How you eat it is take the noodles and dip it into the soup and eat from there. 


Above is what I ordered. I think I ordered wrongly and it came me extra noodles. But the noodles smell so fresh and taste so chewing that I ate everything any more. There was only one guy in the shop, and he will take your order, cook your tsukemen and serve it to you, all while listening to One Ok Rock's latest album "Ambition" which he played in his shop. It was kinda fun dining here. 


And the soup they serve is so different from the ones you get back home in Singapore. The soup there was so thick and savoury that you only need a bit to slurp down the noodles with. In conclusion, I really miss this place. And I'm eagerly waiting for lockdown to be over so that I can go enjoy a bowl of tsukemen with extra noodles to relive these wonderful memories!
