TV Exposure: Top Chef brief shout out.
What: Executive Chef Sara Johannes
Shoyu is located in a can't miss spot at the entry to Concourse G and occupies some serious real estate. Sit at a table, order your food via the iPad tablets, included the tip pre-service, slide your creidt card through the reader, and wait for your server brings out your order.
It’s missing the bright purple hue because it’s not fresh but pickled eggplant that’s used. Everything in the bowl is delicious except the duck. The duck is bland, just there without notable flavor, herbs, or spices to accentuate the duck flavors. The ramen has the umami flavor. The pickled eggplant provided a tart textural contrast to the noodles. And of course everything tastes better with a runny egg.
Overall the bowl us very comforting if expensive. Do you know how many boxes of ramen can be bought with $14? But then that’s how they offset the cost of the iPads.
2/17/14, 1:33 PM. Shoyu certainly knows presentation. Short Rib Noodle bowl or something like that. Flavorful, savory umami, great mouth feel. Not enough food for the money and gone all too soon.
Bottom Line: The real deal is real expensive
