Ramen Halu, San Jose, CA

Such a nice summer day in the South Bay! Always bright and sunny with temperature around 70 degrees!  I was doing some organizing work today with arranging all the receipt in order.  What I found out is that I do visit MickeyD every week and the trend is going upwards!  My belly balloon is going upward! need to change and have a healthier diet.  Not saying that eating ramen is healthy either but better than 99.99% oil MickeyD Fries.  Anyhow..
I came in to Haru Ramen today around 1:30 sitting in front of the bar.  Slow service is still the usual suspect here with 2 waiter/waitress.  I ordered Haru ramen with egg and Tokyo green onion as side order.  I have not completely figure out the difference between Tokyo green union and regular ones, maybe the Tokyo ones would bring the magic. haha.








Tokyo Negi (green onion) almost covered half of the bowl!  It was chewy and it did match well with the soup, which is very dense tonkotsu in flavor. The negi would gives it a refresher.  Other toppings are Menma (Green shoot), chashu, Egg.  The chashu here is thin sliced, soft.  The flavor of the chashu is completely surrounded by the dense soup.  Egg is half boiled egg with the yoke splashing out after a bite.  Faaantastic!











Noodle used are thick, very similar to Shalala's miso ramen noodle.  The egg taste is not strong but it is boiled enough where one bite would break it in half.  It would be better if the taste of the egg noodle stick out a little more.

There is this one taste that I could not describe in words actually about this noodle.  It might be in the taste of the noodle or the taste of the soup where I am hesitate to say that I can eat this everyday.  I am leaning toward the residue on the noodle?  random stuff. ha.








Cool! Today is actually my first time trying Line Photo!  It made the ramen picture that much clearer! very nice. Highly recommended.  They do have lot of frames to choose from but it would be nice to have a better interface on the choices!
