Snapshots from the UK: Wagamama's Defunct #28 (Chili Mushroom Ramen)

Wagamamas is so bad. It's so far removed from the Ramen you get in Japan it's ridiculous. This so called Ramen further illustrates that point (it looks more like a bizarre tom yum gong than anything Japanese).

I too have know this particular form of heartbreak--specifically with the Peking duck pizza at California Pizza Kitchen. I've been back since, but it's always such a hollow meal without my beloved Peking duck.

lovely story kerry
"It was a new dish—only on the Oxford menu. Just like me! We met, and we fell in love."

Your ramen romance inspired me to whip up a similar recipe :)

I have this happen to me all the time. Apparently I have odd tastes, because my favourite at any chain seems to disappear off the menu sooner or later, while others' faves remain. This is probably why I don't go to chains much anymore. When you finally find something worth eating, they remove the option to eat it!! I hope you find some relief with the cookbooks!

The Thai sauce at Buffalo Wild Wings disappeared one day and I haven't been back since.
