Noodles and Broth

Chewy noodles and meaty broth. A hot bowl of ramen makes my belly happy.
Add pork belly and a soft-boiled egg. Heaven.

It’s a pleasure to look for the best ramen in any city.
This time: San Diego.

#kvpinmybelly Spicy Ramen at Yakyudori in #SanDiego. Tasty, chewy noodles. NOM!
I loved the spicy miso broth and the thick noodles at Yakyudori.

#kvpinmybelly Spicy Sesame Ramen at Tajima in #SanDiego Kearny Mesa. Subbed out ground pork for tofu. NOM! #ramenlove
The spicy sesame broth knocked me off my feet at Tajima. They were able to replace the ground pork with tofu when I needed to abstain from meat for Lent.

Smoked bacon and a hot dog paired nicely with noodles in my Underbelly Ramen bowl at Underbelly. I could have used another scoop of broth.

Rich, tender oxtail chunks made me melt in the Belly of the Beast bowl.

Watering Holes

Beer is like water in San Diego. We joined the never-ending brewery crawl. So far, I don’t think we’ve tasted a bad beer.

#kvpinmybelly Bottom's Up! Best Coast Beer Fest at #SanDiego Embarcadero South. NOM! #beerfest
It was a pleasure to try beers from San Diego and around the state: from Firestone to Sudwerk. It reminded me of our first beer festival in Anderson Valley.…without the rain.
