Day 44: Tonkatsu Shoyu Ramen (Just Got Hadouken'd)


Tonkatsu Shoyu Ramen
Status: Restaurant (Yamadaya Ramen)
Satisfaction: 8.

Associated with: Ryu from Street Fighter

Remember this guy? I used to use him in Street Fighters just so I could mash the buttons and make him say my favorite phrase ever: Hadouken! He sounded like a bit like he was constipated every time he shouted it, but I still thought it was pretty cool. So when I come across Japanese words that share even a vague trace of these sounds (read: "Shoyu" = the "dou" from "Hadouken"?), I think of that word getting blasted to smithereens by a constipated man on steroids.

That's pretty epic ramen, if you ask me.
