Sapporo Restaurant

We miss Ramen so much that we searched for reviews on good ramen around Times Square. We headed there for dinner. Considering that the restaurant is located in Times Square, the price is cheap.

Shoyu Ramen. Topped with sweet corn, fish cake, roast pork and beansprouts. I don't like this kind of soup. I prefer thick pork base soup.


Sapporo Ramen. Miso based soup topped with sweetcorn, butter, beansprouts, finely chopped pork, fish cake and garlic. The soup was a little sweet. I would have preferred Sapporo Ramen because of thicker soup if it wasn't sweet.


Ramen Kan in Sydney still remain my favorite ramen.

Big Wong King

First time in NY Chinatown. Being new in town, not knowing which restaurant to dine. We simply chose one that looks decent enough.

Instead of a pot of tea, we had 2 glasses of hot tea.


Rice with Roast Duck and Roast Pork Combination $4.5. In Sydney and Singapore, Roast pork is a piece of pork belly roasted until the skin is crispy crackling. It is called siew yuk (in cantonese) or sio bak (in hokkien). This is the second time that I ordered Roast Pork in NY and it came what we called Barbecued Pork (Char Siew) instead.

"Char Siew" literally means "roasted on a fork," the traditional cooking method for the dish. Anyway, Char Siew = Roast Pork here.


Roast duck and wontons with noodles $5.5


This Bean Chili is the best ever ~

Here are the breakfast menu. Fresh start: fruit salad croissant and coffe.

Jon's Main: Wok fried chicken with ginger, mushroom and sesame oil served with selected vegetables and fried noodles.
