    And here it is in all its fire-y glory.  Hand cut noodles are a really important staple to this dish. Noms.

    This place has got to be the best Ramen in Brisbane. Having only just discovered Taro's (yes I know it has been around forever) I seem to visit it more than once a week. Fire tonkotsu ramen for the win.

    Their new Ascot venue

    Eating at Taro's is like enveloping yourself in the hug of a dear friend. And now it's a dear friend you can find in two locations. Everyone knows the crazy rush that can accompany their CBD location, but the new restaurant at the Eagle Farm Racecourse end of Racecourse Road, is a little quieter and more relaxed. It's suburban and there ain't nothing wrong with that. We arrived on a Saturday evening just after 6:00pm to the air-conditioned inside seats full of eager ramen eaters. It's still counter service like their CBD counterpart. I opted for the miso ramen while my dining partner took our server's recommendation for the classic tonkatsu ramen. They've made use of footpath dining and it's quite cool with the evening Summer breezes passing through. From the first slurp to stealing the egg from my dining partner's tonkatsu, the location hasn't changed the Taro's success. All that's changed is the location, and frankly, I like the slower pace of their new venue. It's less about getting in and getting out as fast as you can. There's an atmosphere that allows you to sit and enjoy your bowl of ramen for all it's worth. I'm still working on the trifecta of having Taro's Delivery in Brisbane.

    I had vegetarian ramen, which was nice since a lot of ramen places aren't veg friendly

    Review Highlights - Taro's Ramen

    Ramen wise, we had Tonkotsu, Red and Fire and they were all amazing, delicious and fresh with a slice of Bangalow pork and half a boiled egg.

    I always say it's pretty difficult to go wrong with Asian cuisine. Sadly, it was here that my…read moretheory was disproven. Chingu is a Japanese and Korean restaurant located in Chinatown. I've eaten a lot of Japanese food in my time, so I decided to try one of the Korean dishes. In their defence, I did decide to be adventurous and ordered something I'd never tried before, so that could have been the problem. It sounded promising; beef, noodles and vegetables in a miso based soup. I was a little disappointed in the portion size; I have become accustomed to the extremely generous portions served at most of the restaurants in Sunnybank and thought Chinatown would be similar. This might not be a fair criticism, as I have a pretty big appetite coupled with the fact that I hadn't eaten lunch that day, so it's likely I would have been disappointed with anything less than the whole cow. I tucked in and sadly I was disappointed again. The flavour was lovely but it just wasn't strong enough for my taste. My dish also came served with a small bowl of rice, as did all the mains. I'm fairly sure this wasn't the correct way to eat it but I improvised and threw the rice in my soup, making a thicker concoction and I'm sure any staff watching me glower in disapproval. I tried some of my Friend's meals, most of whom ordered safer options such as teriyaki noodles. I would say overall about half of the group were very happy with their meals, while the others weren't. We also embarrassingly discovered that the small red circle in the middle of the table is in fact a button that sends a waiter running over to your table.

    After 2 visits my husband and I are now firm fans. Even after you get over the novelty of cooking…read moreyour own food on a hot plate at the table, Chingu is great. We chose the all-you-can-eat option for $29.95 a head. There's a good range of dishes to choose from, the soy beef being my personal fave. The only criticism is I could have wished for more vegetable options. Great for a date night or dinner with friends, the cooking and the atmosphere is fun; the staff attentive.
