Ringer Hut "Tom Yum Kung Champon"
red

I ate the limited-time menu "Tom Yum Kung Champon" at the Nagasaki Champon specialty store "Ringer Hut". The Thai food Tom Yum Kung, which is said to be one of the three biggest soups in the world, has the name of Tom Yum Kung, and it has an authentic spiciness. However, the dashi stock of seafood worked well, and it was a good match with Champon.

A little less than normal champon

The price is 540 yen (tax included), the volume is a little less than normal champon, and the calories are 407 kcal. It's enough for a light lunch, but if you're not satisfied, you can order a set of 5 thin-skinned dumplings for 745 yen.

Like Champon ... but like Tom Yum Kung!

It's red to see, and it has a lot of exoticism, combined with the appearance of the shrimp that is in it. When you scoop it up with a lotus and drink it, the first thing you feel is umami. It uses a lot of fish sauce and shrimp extract, and has the scent of coriander and lemongrass. However, the green leaf on the top is mainly mizuna, which is refreshing and has no habit.

The soup is sour and spicy, with plenty of seafood flavor

By the way, the upper leaf is Mizuna

It has a clear acidity like Tom Yum Kung, but the aftertaste is very refreshing and it doesn't get in the way of enjoying the ingredients and noodles. On the other hand, when it comes to spiciness, it is a bullish seasoning that gradually works as you eat and the ingredients of pepper gradually irritate your tongue. If you drink 3 glasses of soup with a lotus, your body will get hot.

It's champon, so it contains bean sprouts and I smoke soup very often!

Overall, it's not a slightly unusual menu, but a highly complete finish that can be found at authentic Thai restaurants. By the way, Ringer Hut has 5 stores in Thailand, and it is said that the taste is adjusted by making use of the experience there.

It goes well with thick, chewy noodles.

The shrimp is pre-prepared and goes well with the bright red soup. If you think about it carefully, it's an ingredient that is also included in regular champon, but when you put it in your mouth with Tom Yum Kung, it's kind of exotic. The thick and chewy noodles of Champon are often entwined with the soup, which makes them delicious. It seems that it is more familiar than Thai ramen and vermicelli.

And after all, shrimp! If you think about it, is it included in regular champon?

The sour spiciness that blows away the lingering heat, the umami of seafood and the satisfaction of the noodles. It's a menu that even ethnic food lovers can enjoy, so if you're curious, give it a try.
