Hakata Hiyashi Chūka @ Ippudo
One of my favorite things to eat during the summer is really chilled noodles. Chilled Chinese noodles, cold soba or udon, Vietnamese vermicelli, I am all up for them. While Hiyashi Chūka (冷やし中華) chilled ramen seem like a simple-enough dish, it is surprising that I have a hard time finding a good one in restaurants locally.
I went to Ippudo today for the new “carbonara” spinach salad only to learn that it is exclusively to the TST branch. Not being very interested in their tonkotsu ramen, I ordered th new Hakata Hiyashi Chūka(博多 冷やし中華, $78). With the noodle set I also ordered the char siu bun (+$20) and iced Oolong tea (+$8).
The bowl of chilled chewy ramen was topped with classic hiyashi chūka's ingredients: lettuce shreds, char siu strips, cucumber strips, tomato slices, a lot of fine egg crepe juliennes (my favorite), and a dollop of mentaiko. Mixed with the slightly tangy sesame sauce with a hint of bonito flavor, the whole bowl was cold and very refreshing!
I added grounded sesame and onsen tamago (溫泉玉子, $10) midway through and it’s just another way of eating this noodles. The noodles remained al dente and cold till the end. It was not heavy yet hearty enough to fill you up. I thought it was excellent for the summer.
As for the char siu bun, the slightly grilled char siu was excellent with the fatty layers. The bun was still horrible like I had before Iced Oolong tea is normal.
I think I will come back again to Ippudo in the summer just for the博多 冷やし中華!
