Mala Tonkotsu Ramen V2.0 from Ippudo

Ippudo, Mala Tonkotsu Ramen V2.0

Here's Ippudo's Mala Tonkotsu Ramen V2.0 which is on a limited run on their menu. Never tried V1.0. Not bad tasting mala tonkotsu broth which I'm gonna say hovers around 小辣. Pretty oily, savoury and there was also a sweetness in it. There were carrots in it so that might have been the reason.

Noodles were thicker like Chinese yellow noodles instead of the thin Hakata type. Texture was firm and had more bite like those found in tsukemen. What made me want to try this bowl was the motsu that they also had in it. Those were tender, chewy and beefy at the same time - a much better experience than the ones we previously had from the motsunabe at Motsunabe Goku.
