A hot day walking around downtown Austin\nsomehow left us crave ramen. It’s odd – sexy noodle soups seem to be good in\nany respect. With so many versions of ramen in Japan itself, it’s always\ninteresting to see which types of prevailed in America; any time that I visit a\nrestaurant touting variety, I am interested to see how it ends up. For the hot\nafternoon we were experiencing when we popped into Daruma, their foundation was\nperfect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The interior of this restaurant is quite\ncozy, as is the case with most ramen shops. The pub chairs enabled diners,\nourselves included, to watch the cooks constitute the dishes as orders were\nplaced. Most frequently, we see pork bone bases for broths and iconic yellow\nflour noodles so this was a change of pace. They boast making their bases and\nstock each and every single day, and their menu focuses on the lightness of\ntheir broth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ordering is made easy by giving diners just a\nhandful of alternatives. Four choices of ramen, really. There are few sides\ntoo, and the only dessert you’ll be able to get is some ice cream. What is that\nfor creating your decisions easier? We eyed and purchased the Tatsuta-age\n($5.50 – fried chicken thighs) to begin, knowing that a place centered on\npoultry broth need to know how to make a chicken appetizer. Did they?\nAbsolutely. The bite-sized bits had the right amount of crunch to them and\nseasoning, not needing the thick dipping sauce they arrived with (though that\nwas tasty too ). We would have ordered a second round of this had we not seen\nhow large the ramen bowls were.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I went for the Shoyu ($10 – chicken-chashu, aji-tamago, bok choy, scallions, menma, naruto, sesame, and anchovy oil) and Duc for your Miso ($10 – miso foundation + chicken broth; shredded chicken breast, aji-tamago, bean sprouts, scallions, chili scents, coriander oil). Both came out hot but not the steaming hot they need to have been. The broth was visibly light for both so we were eager to see what flavors a chicken-based broth could impart on the rest of the entire dish. My chicken chashu was a fantastic change-up in the normal pork chashu; it seemed to be compressed moist chicken leg that was thickly sliced and salted. Because the inventory was less fatty than pork-based stocks, we now had to pay closer attention to the principles of this base that was slightly sweet, light-bodied, and surely built to express the other components per bowl. Overall, certainly a style befitting of those wanting their ramen without all of the fat!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
