20160218:
After walking around Oakland Chinatown, my friend and I passed by Sobo Ramen and I was interested in trying it. From what I can remember, I ordered the Spicy Miso Ramen, though many of the other "Special Feature Ramen" looked appetizing. In addition to our entrees, we split the Agedash Tofu appetizer.


While I would have gotten the Soft Shell Crab, my friend expressed interest in the tofu and I obliged.

Menu Description: Agedashi Tofu $4.95
Crispy fried tofu served on tempura sauce

When the tofu arrived, I took a piece onto my plate and poured some of the tempura sauce over it. Then, upon biting into the tofu, my mouth took joy in both the tofu's flavor and texture. Even if the ramen ended up being bad, I would have been content with having tried the tofu.


With that being said, I remember enjoying the ramen. I could not, however, distinguish its quality with that of ramen from other ramen places I've been to.

Menu Description: Spicy Miso Ramen $11.50
Topped with chashu, soft boiled egg, shiitake mushroom, bean sprout, seaweed, green onion, and sesame seeds in spicy miso broth. Option available for vegetarian.
