Ippudo

      Ippudo was first started in Fukuoka, Fukuoka by Shigemi Kawahara, the CEO of Chikaranomoto Company. "Ippudo" in direct translation means "one wind hall", and this is named because at the time, there were dark clouds over the Kyushu ramen industry, and the founder CEO Kawahara intended to "blow wind and revolutionise the era". Now, we have it in Sydney! It is located at Westfield Sydney Level 5(Shop 5021), 188 Pitt Street, Sydney, NSW.





Shiomaru Chashu
       Shiromaru with simmered pork belly. This is the Ramen I ordered. It’s not spicy at all because I cannot have spicy food. However, it tastes good as well with long time cooked soup and their unique ramen. It is fantastic!

Ippudo Pork Bun
       Steamed bun with braised pork and Ippudo original sauce. This one is the one I strongly recommend. As an entry, it contains different tastes such as sweet from steamed bun, oily from pork belly and a taste hard to describe from their original sauce. In a word, it is perfect entry and you shouldn’t miss.






Bakuretsu Tofu
       Spicy tofu and minced pork in sizzling hot stone pot. Soft tofu with a little bit spicy soup just gives you another feeling of having tofu.











Ippudo Gyoza
       Hakata-style pan-fried dumpings. Well, the truth is, it is just normal dumplings… Not really special but still good to try.











David Tofu
       Flash-fried tofu with a thickened agedashi broth, topped with grated radish. To be honest, I didn’t have a chance to try it because my friends took them just after it arrived and finished them in less then 10 seconds. But I think it should be good as it looks good at least.








      At last, I need to say it is a nice restaurant you should try if you like Japanese Ramen. Just like what I introduced before, it is a well-known ramen restaurant all over the world. Just trust others and be there, you will have a wonderful night I promise.
