Uma Uma Hakata Soul Food

[tomcat]

...not much more than a hole-in-the-wall ramen joint in Central World, Uma Uma surprised with tasty offerings at very reasonable prices:



...pork belly in sesame oil and crunchies (excellent!) and edamame


...grilled chicken breast with sinus-clearing wasabe...


...grilled pork belly ramen in pork bone broth (devine: not too salty)...


...grilled pork belly ramen with dried snowfish flakes...very satisfying...

Great report and pix as usual TC

...pork belly in sesame oil and crunchies

Had to Google what crunchies were.

They are what we call "scraps" in the UK. Bits of leftover batter (tempura).

Looks nice. Will give it a try next time I'm in the area.

I thought, based on the title, that it was about an African resto - sounded like Hakuna Matata.

Thanks TC for the review & pics!

that it was about an African resto

...of the 3 African restaurants I've visited in bkk, only one was worthy of a post: an Ethiopian eatery in existence for about 10 minutes on sukh soi 11...

Some kind of 'encounter' with an Irishman?
