Ramen/Tampopo underground restaurant January 26, 2013

Sunday, January 26, 2014
6 pm
limited space for 10
$50/person

Tampopo is one of the greatest films of all time. Created in the mid 1980's the film takes place in a ramen shop in Tokyo. A spoof about Japanese culture and the obsession in food, this film is hilariously funny as well as an amazing critique of film history.
Although the food served, as always, is all vegan, there are scenes in the film of animals consumed and cooked.

We will be serving homemade ramen, tempura, homemade pickles and a wide variety of Japanese small dishes as well as shochu drinks.

Book soon as this will fill up very quickly!
