last Hurrah - IPPUDO

Finally!! Every time I try to go to Ippudo I think, "Surely the wait can't be THAT long tonight. I can always grab a drink and wait it out." What?? 1 hour and 45 m in???? um, no thank you.

But I vowed to get there before my departure. So I lined up at 5PM for dinner. NO JOKE.

I have to admit this photo is a bit gross. But blame it on my iPhone camera that has no flash. The pork buns were eaten to fast to be photographed.
