Cheese + Ramen = Your Hearts Content

Warning: The following pictures will illuminate the most red and yellow you've ever seen. That's tomato and cheese. Tomato and cheese RAMEN. If that hasn't caught your attention well then I don't know what will. Taiyo-No-Tomato-Men will not leave you disappointed with cheesy-ness. There's a lot of stores placed in Tokyo so if you can't decide between a pizza and a bowl of ramen, then this is your answer. 

Cheese Ramen
✭✭✭✭✩
830 yen

Each bite is just as cheesy as the first. The powdered cheese on top will melt as you keep eating, so towards the end you'll have chunks of melted cheese to chew on which, I don't know about you guys- but is my favorite part of the meal. -Mari

The super cheesy ramen in tomato broth combo is amazing. Whoever thought it up was a genius. Every bite is deliciously cheesy and I would definitely eat it again. -Daniel

Persuaded yet? I am.

Cheese and ramen; God's gift.

Fried Cheese Dumplings
✭✭✭✩✩
370 yen (7 pcs.)

These were a definite when Daniel and I walked into the little restaurant. We were cold and starving from a long day and something cheesy and crispy sounded like it would hit the spot. These were pretty tasty and was like a snack consistency, I just wish they were hotter and gooey-er when they were served! -Mari

I have to agree with Mari. These were good, but they could have been better. They served them a little too cool and it just didn't have that umph. -Daniel

Avocado or Avocado?

Madosh Cafe is hidden in the bustling streets of Harajuku, you probably won't be able to come across it by just walking past it. Every meal on the menu is built around avocado, which is perfect if you're as much of an avocado lover as I am! 

Taco rice with Avocado
✭✭✭✭✩
1,190 yen

So. Good. In Japan it's hard to come across taco rice that doesn't taste sweet, and Madosh's just beats the rest! It's got a real kick from the meat sauce, and each bite is either melt-in-your-mouth from the perfectly ripe avocado or the crunchiness of the crushed nachos. Seriously see myself craving this soon!

Good food with good company! 

Fried Avocado with Mozzarella and Prosciutto
✭✭✭✩✩
400 yen per piece

 I never thought you could fry avocado. Not to mention stuff it with cheese and ham. This just blew my mind. Crispy on the edges and moist and chewy on the inside. 

OVERALL:

I love the cozy atmosphere and the wacky avocado decorations throughout the interior. It's a fun place to chill with friends and definitely worth popping into if you're debating what to eat in Harajuku! The only thing that bothered me was that on the weekends they require a purchase of at least 1 drink.. which isn't such a problem unless it's 600 yen ($6)! Maybe I recommend the weekday lunch menu better when the prices are more affordable. Next time I want to try the avocado carbonara!
