Spicy Miso Tonkotsu - J Robata
A little before Christmas, I went to Millbrae to run an errand and parked by a place called J Robata Ramen and Grill, located at 293 El Camimo Real. I brought home an order of the tonkotsu (pork broth) ($12) and an order of the spicy miso tonkotsu ($13). The staff inside was very friendly.
Each order came with four large slices of pork belly, extremely big pieces of bok choy, a whole marinated egg, green onions, and sesame seeds. Both broths were a little too garlicky for my taste, but still tasted good. If you like garlic, you will have no problems. The large pieces of bok choy were unwieldy to fit in a bowl and I kind of wish they used baby bok choy or a smaller vegetable but it gave the bowl a healthy feeling. Finally, both my wife and I agreed that the star of the bowl was the egg. It was cooked perfectly and so delicious. I could have eat a dozen of those. Go there and check them out.
