Ippudo


Solo lunching at Ippudo is quite a unique experience, the place is packed and bustling and loud. The waiters relish in shouting their irasshaimase and arigatou-gozaimasu greetings and the music is booming. Yet despite all the hubbub, I felt quite peaceful in my own silent bubble of hot ramen. It was a particularly tasty bubble today.

I used to be really paranoid about solo dining, but now I really look forward to the times that I can just soak in the atmosphere of a place and blend into the background.

That ramen looks really good too... it always helps when your solo meal is tasty enough to keep you interested.

A-in-A, yes me too, I've never been entirely into solo dining but I really enjoyed my meal yesterday. I also cheated and brought a book to read with my delicious ramen. :)
