Tsuta蔦, 西方元素與日式拉麵的邂逅。

Tsuta蔦 是日本東京的著名拉麵店，去年底在新加坡首開第一家海外分店，今年四月在臺北開了第二家，是世界第一個獲得米其林一星的拉麵店。全店以木質調為設計基底，座位全為吧台式，提供饕客與廚師們最近距離的接觸，湯頭熬製、煮麵條、備料所有烹調過程完整地在顧客們面前呈現。

A very famous ramen shop in Tokyo, Japan, Tsuta, has expanded its second branch to Taipei, Taiwan. It is also the first ramen shop awarded Michelin one-star. The whole design is wooden base, and people all sit in terrace, which enables customers to watch the complete cooking procedure.

今天排了一小時才吃到，還得先拿時段整理卷！！I waited for over an hour to have this ramen!! And, also, we have to get a ticket (according to the time) to enter the store.

Tsuta的一碗拉麵基本組成為麵條、筍干、日本大蔥、叉燒、湯頭、（也可自行點有味玉（糖心蛋）的拉麵）、還有最特別的醬料（醬油為松露醬、鹽味為橄欖醬）

Tsuta's ramen basically includes noodles, bamboo shoot, leek, Char siu(pork), soup, egg(additional), and sauce.

菜單 menu

先給大家看看完整的醬油拉麵吧！

First of all, let me show you the Shoyu Soba.

湯底是以和歌山的醬油與新鮮全雞、魚乾、及蛤蜊熬製而成，喝起來鮮味十足，鹹度剛好，非常順口。The soup base is simmered with soy sauce, fresh chicken, dried fish, and clams. Light soup and full of fresh ingredients.

叉燒上面的醬料是松露醬，松露混上松露油調製而成，還吃得出松露的口感。非常特別，將東西方元素結合在一碗拉麵裡，卻是搭配的不突兀。

The sauce is truffle pureed in truffle oil, and you can even feel the texture of the truffle when chewing. It's very creative and bold, since it combines the western element into a bowl of ramen.

叉燒頗帶嚼勁，不是入口即化的口感，卻吃得出肉質的鮮度。

We often imagine a perfect Char siu(pork) should melt when we put it in the mouth. However, the Char siu here is more chewy and contains less fat, not greasy at all.

麵條還好，我比較喜歡偏硬的細麵。

The noodles are okay, but I prefer it getting less soften up.

接下來來嚐嚐鹽味味玉拉麵，

較不同的是湯底與橄欖醬的部分。湯底是混合沖繩海鹽、蒙古岩鹽採特殊比例調製成的鹽味醬汁並加入特製松露油，較為清淡。

而叉燒上的松露醬換成了橄欖醬，吃得出橄欖細緻清脆的口感，真的很特別。

The difference mainly lies in the soup base and the sauce. The soup base is made with the mixture of Okinawa's sea salt and Mongolia's rock salt, combining truffle oil, it's more lighter than the other flavor. And the sauce changes into green olives pureed in truffle oil, delicate and refreshing, giving another aroma for the soup.
