Coffee-flavored Ramen Available in Tokyo’s Katsushika-ku

May 31st, 2005 by Adamu		 Adamu

This message is intended for Curzon and Nichi Nichi:

I saw this on the Japanese news today:

That’s right. Coffee flavored ramen. It’s a 5-minute walk from Ohanachaya station on the Keisei line. And it’s apparently pretty good. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to eat this strange ramen and let me know how it tastes. Good luck and godspeed!

      Was not the cream of Vienna coffee changed for the noodle?
      Therefore, it might be written the China style coffee in the menu.

      Adamu… I’ve been waiting my whole life for something like this. You need to work your Japan connections and hook us up!

      Well, not sure about the Vienna coffee noodles, Masaco, but your very specific interest in the topic and lack of surprise at its existence make me wonder.

      Sam: I’m seeing about a possible home version of this curiosity. I will let you know.

      Gross!

      However, because you are so curious, coffee ramen will be on the menu when you are invited to my dinner party with Saru.
