Happy mid-week lunch — Menya Kokoro mazesoba ($12)!
Repeat visit to Menya Kokoro (麺屋こころ) for their original mazesoba — thick noodles, savoury minced pork, raw egg yolk, garlic chives, scallions, nori, dried fish powder. $12.
Happy mid-week lunch — back at Menya Kokoro (麺屋こころ) for their mazesoba again. Once was not enough. $12. 😋
What was on the bowl ($12):
- Thick chewy egg noodles as the base.
- Centre: a raw egg yolk with black pepper crack on top, sitting on a generous mound of savoury minced pork.
- Around the bowl: bright green chopped garlic chives, shredded white scallion (negi), dark chopped nori, and a small mound of roasted dried fish powder.
Mixed everything together — same ritual, same satisfaction. The umami depth from minced pork + dried fish powder is hard to beat.
Total: $12. Restaurant pricing.
Overall: 4.3 / 5. Consistent quality — repeat-visit confidence confirmed. Menya Kokoro is a regular in the rotation now. 😍👍🏼
