Osaka Izakaya — Pattaya, Thailand
Tonight, we drink.
Drag across the page — the ink will bleed.
Step through the norenNoren
In Awaza, Osaka,
there was a small ramen shop.
Chicken broth, no MSG.
A bowl built fresh every day,
with nothing cut short.
That obsession crossed the sea
and landed here in Pattaya.
Long-time residents.
Travelers passing through.
People who fell for Thailand and stayed.
We're here to make a place where,
at the end of the day, you can say:
"Now that was a good night."
The "LABO" in MENLABO means laboratory.
No two days taste the same.
A diner by day. A tavern from three.
Midday
Eat properly, like a real teishoku joint.
Extra rice, on the house.
From eleven, until three.
3 p.m.
The noren changes. From here, a tavern.
First round
Start here.
Everything's made to go with a drink.
Add a plate of gyoza — changes everything.
Second round
Beer, ice-cold
Yes, we pour. And yes, ramen too.
Behind the bar: someone who's
run his own places, and a 25-year
veteran who trains the pros.
Real izakaya people.
So no — we can't cut corners.
To finish
No MSG.
Just chicken, water, and patience.
The bowl after the drinks is always the best.
