Tsurutontan
Welcome to Tsurutontan: A Slurp-tastic Adventure!
Your Udon Playground
Okay, folks, let me tell you about Tsurutontan, and no, it’s not just another place where they serve udon while you sit on the toilet (though let’s be honest, the flow of the noodles helps sometimes, right?). It’s, uh, classy! Located on the beautiful Kalakaua Avenue in Waikiki, this spot is pure udon magic! Seriously, you might actually believe that the bowls whisper sweet nothings while you slurp. It’s like noodles and meditation combined and I’m here for it!
Dishes to Make Your Taste Buds Dance
Can we talk about the food? I had this Sizzling Sukiyaki Udon that came in a ridiculously large bowl, and my inner child was straight-up jazzed! Like, I didn’t even need a chaotically colorful pizza slice to feel happy; this made me feel like it was my birthday—every day! And then I tried their Uni Udon… oh, buddy, my mouth was blessed with that creamy goodness. I mean, who knew sea urchin could be so fancy? I was like a fish in a (very stylish) bowl! Don’t forget to sip on their crafty cocktails or some good ol’ sake—the stuff dreams are made of, I swear!
Service? Oh, You Betcha!
Let’s chat about service for a sec, because you need to know—they practically shower you with kindness! I felt like royalty, like I was on some Japanese version of a reality show called ‘Happiness & Noodles’, with servers treating me like a queen who deserves all the carbs. I mean, they even smile when you slurp. This place is like a warm hug right after you trip and fall in a puddle!
Why Tsurutontan Rocks
If you’ve got a noodle craving that needs satisfying (and I guess I always do), Tsurutontan gives you a culinary trip to Japan without the costly plane ticket. The beautiful, simple ambiance and unbelievably blown-up bowls made me feel like I landed on another planet—one where everyone always says, ‘It’s okay to eat with your hands!’ Seriously, it’s that enjoyable. And you get these artisanal, hand-crafted bowls! I mean, how do I x my Instagram strategy when my food is better looking than I am?
Final Thoughts
If you find yourself in Honolulu, and you don’t go to Tsurutontan, did you really even go to Hawaii? This place is an experience for your taste buds with a side of exotic luxe vibes. Trust me; you’ll want to check it out. And when you’re done with udon, try some *actual* dessert like the monkey bread!
