I got to knock another place off my list today with lunch at ButaPub with Sophia. Several people have been telling me this month alone that I need to try this place. We walked in and first thing is that it's literally underground and huge. There's great seating everywhere that makes it super cozy while still being well lit and bright. I ordered the ButaPub ramen while Sophia got the tofu rice bowl. Yummm. The ramen had really great crispy pork shoulder, thin strips of nori, garlic sesame chili oil, miso broth, and of course, the perfectly poached egg that bursts open when you cut into it. Honestly it was a little salty for me, but the ramen noodles and the pork shoulder cut down the saltiness and helped balance it out a little. I love poached eggs in these kinds of dishes and while I'm not the biggest fan of nori, it was a pretty nice addition to the bowl. I'm happy with the decision and to us, it was the perfect amount of food for the price. We decided it was so cool that we're gonna come back on Wednesday to check out the dinner and drinks menu. Keep and eye out for an update!
