Tonkotsu East - Hackney

Sometimes (what I think is the goal), I simply admit and do what the vote says to get it away. although I must be careful not to promote this behavior. it could be pretty bad. So if they know me personally, they know that if they are too nasty to wear it consequences. I can be a rather difficult person if I understood (or even half) on it.

Ramen is one of my favourite Asian dishes. I am a big fan of soups that have loads of ingredients in it, almost like there's not going to be enough broth for all of it. The noodles are made locally and they taste delicious, so we're off to a great start. I had one with pork and the meat was tasty and savoury. The pork belly bits are really enjoyable, I would potentially like them to be a little bit more on the crispy side (due to my Portuguese heritage). The ramen is balanced, and the broth is deep and packs loads of flavour. Naturally, I added some chilli sauce to kick it up one notch and it really hit the right spot. All in all, a simple meal with a lovely blend of ingredients. Wrap it...read more

Tonkotsu East is tucked away at a side street just a few steps away from Haggerston Station and serves 4 different styles of ramen, though, you should definitely try out their Tsukemen I enjoyed the cozy and industrial rustic interior (like it is popular in East London), with a view directly into the kitchen as well as into their own little noodle factory. Emma and I kicked off the dinner with some cocktails and a serving of Chicken Karaage. A great combination! The chicken was so tender and juicy, so be aware when you share it, because there will be a fight over the last piece! For the main, we ordered both Tonkotsu as well as Tsukemen. If you don't know, what Tsukemen is (I...read more

Greatest Hangover Cure!. After heavy night out, what i really needed to get me back to form was a big bowl of ramen. Tonkotsu east by Haggerston station was a saving grace and a great addition to the area. Went with a friend and loved the space which is right under the overground rail line. Staff was friendly and attentive. Ordered the Chicken gyoza, Crabmeat Korokke and we both had the Tonkotsu ramen. The Crabmeat Korokke was great, like croquettes its served with delicious mayonaise. I could eat these for days. The Gyoza came out next but with no sauce, then i realized you had to make your own sauce from the table soya, vinegar and chili oil. This was nice as we like it hot and you can...read more

Sometimes nagging gets to me.  At times (which I guess is the aim), I just give in and do what the voice says in order to get it to go away. Although I have to be careful not to encourage such behaviour.  It might backfire rather badly.  So if you know me personally, know that if you nag too much, there will be consequences to bear.  I can be a rather difficult person if I put my mind (or even half) to it.
