Shalala, Mountain View, CA

Friday = Basektball + ramen.  really.

after a stressful practice of team MAC (to stress: suicide for the losing team), it is obvious that intaking delicious food would heal all the pain from the practice.  Here are the order of the places we discussed => Ramen, Pho, Sushi (Really??). Pho, Tofu house, tofu house, pho =>Ramen. Yes. as I intended the conversation should be headed!  

5 of us ended up at Shalala yesterday and it was not as busy as anticipated.  We all order different soup base, but I ended up getting the summer special: tsukemen!  I did tried their tsukemen before but was not too impress with it.  "One more shot" was the thinking behind and actaully wanted something easy on the stomach. 

It was not on the menu.  Please asked the waitress!


The soup base is salt with fish broth.  Light and enough flavor to dip the noodle.  From J-Sport (free paper), the chef also puts in salt fermented rice melt.  I really like the Noodle where the egg flavor is stronger than most stores.  Suggest to put the green onion in the soup to create more chewiness.  I really want to try to put lemon next time in the soup to see if it bring out the flavor a bit more. Other than that, it was a very tasty ramen! yummm!
