Heading to a Broadway show with an out-of-towner? Only one place to go these days: Ippudo. SCF fans will recognize most dishes here (previous Ippudo coverage here and here), so we’ll just go with a visual post this time.
But I will say this. We sat in the front room at the bar for the first time, and that was grand fun.
Crab croquettes, yes, yes, yes!
Chicken wings were out of sight.
This zucchini-potato dish wasn’t as fabulous as the first time we had it, but still quite good. It was a little limp, as you can see.
Ramen lovers, unite!
The 411 on Ippudo: The Japanese ramen chain serving terrific bowls of tasty ramen and a host of creative and delicious appetizers. Don’t miss the potato-zucchini-mushroom skewers or the chicken wings, and save room for the complex, addictive ramen, too. 321 W 51st St. near Eighth Avenue, Manhattan. 212-974-2500. ippudony.com
