Shin-Sen-Yummy

This will be a quick post for a quick lunch. I went to the Rosemead branch of Shin-Sen-Gumi today with Frenchman and Fooz.

I got my usual Calpico and convinced Frenchman to try it. I told him, "It tastes like pinkberry!"

That was enough to sell him on it. He liked it.

I shook these spices all over the contents of my bowl.

And I slurped up this little baby -- a half portion of Hakata ramen ($4.75) with chasu pork ($0.50). You can't see them, but there are noodles in there, I swear.

Good. Not as good as Daikokuya, but still pretty good.

Definitely good enough for us to demolish our bowls.

And...I'm done. Only 10 minutes to draft this post. That's speed-blogging, bitches.

  3. I am curious . . . do you take your Nikon to work everyday?

    I've done that once or twice but it's just too much to take along with the laptop backpack and purse for me.

  4. Very rarely do I take my Nikon to work. This was my little Canon point-and-shoot, as are most of my weekday lunch posts.

  5. I'm jealous...this post alone is enough motivation for me to start really studing for the mcat; med school on the west coast (esp. LA) = great food.

    Thanks for the motivation.

    P.S. Calpico is awesome.

  8. I would assume that speed blogging is like speed dating, so I'm expecting 8-10 more blog posts within the next hour.
