I recall finding out about this great ramen restaurant from Japan that opened in New York City. I had always wondered if the food would taste the same between the two countries? This was finally my chance to put the random meals to the test. I had actually been to New York City and my first meal there was at Ippudo. Now for today's random meal of the day we have the Akamaru Modern Ramen in Tokyo Japan. While I actually had two different variations between the two cities and it is not a direct comparison, I do prefer the Akamaru Modern Ramen as it is more pleasing to my taste palate. <br />

We have for our random meal of the day a small order of the Soft Boiled Egg and Chicken Meatball Curry. With the time zone change from Los Angeles to Tokyo, we happen to wake up a bit early. The thing is that there is not a lot of choices for an early breakfast. It seems that most breakfast spots open 10am at the earliest so we got creative and went to a 24 hour restaurant and tried to order something that resembles breakfast. Success!<br />

We have for our official first random meal in Tokyo, Japan an order of Udon Noodles In Soup. After the long flight, we still wanted an adventure so off we went and we got lost. What we did not anticipate is that there was a lag in my gps due to the tall buildings around me in Shinjuku. So we would walk a block and did not make a turn and a minute later, we are somewhere random. Good thing I did look up the restaurant and knew it was in a little alley beforehand. So about 30 minutes later, we hit a long line. There seems to be a queue everywhere in Tokyo. It was already past 9PM and we had to wait about 45 minutes to eat. My master plan of not hitting Shin's massive line by coming late at night did not seem to work out. We basically ordered by pointing at pictures on the menu. All this for freshly hand made udon. Fresh is defined as minutes old Udon. The only disappointment was the the photo was not like in the picture on the menu. I seems like they only curl the fresh udon noodles in a bundle when you order without soup. It was still delicious and hit the spot. One random meal down and many more to come!<br />

Hello Tokyo! I could not have been more excited to have this random meal of the day treat. It has been many years of dreaming about traveling to Tokyo, Japan and I have finally made it! This trip was back in early October of this year. While this was not my first random meal in Tokyo, Japan, it was actually my most anticipated random meal. <br />
<br />
We have for our random meal of the day treat an order of a Totoro Cream Puff. This version with the green leaf is the original flavor and translates into Custard and Fresh Cream. It was really just too cute to eat...<br />

When it is hot outside, the perfect random meal of the day treat is ice cream. Today we have ice cream with a twist as our random meal. We have an order of the Ice Cream Cloud. We start with a scoop of dutch chocolate. Then the "ice cream is surrounded by a cloud of cotton candy" that is "spun per order". This is a nice random meal twist to just ice cream!<br />

We have for our random meal of the day an order of the Beef Kabob Bowl. You have a choice of rice or french fries as the base. I choose the french fries and it is a mix of sweet potato fries and regular fries. A layer of beef kabob is placed on top of the fries and you choose an assortment of toppings. A side of their signature Mount Olympus aoli sauce completes this random meal.<br />
