Hey Guys! I’m back with a new food post. Ramen Bar Ichi is a Japanese Style Ramen restaurant new to Houston Texas located on 1801 S Dairy Ashford #10
8 Houston TX 77077. Ramen Bar Ichi uses original soup made from scratch with the best ingredients. Ramen Bar Ichi is a limited menu due to newly opening but hope to expand their menu in the future.

I love anything to do with Asian culture and watched more Korean, Taiwanese, Japanese and Vietnamese shows then I can count, so I was looking forward to trying this new restaurant. Ramen Bar Ichi offers a number of items including Ramen, Fried Items which are mostly fried chicken items with different sauces, and salad. They also offer salad, rice bowls and desserts such vanilla Ice cream with Ramen Bar Ichi original sauce and a selection of toppings including strawberry, mango, matcha, black honey and yuzu.

I ordered the Tonkotsu Ramen which contains pork and chicken soup with green onions, kikurage, mushroom, bamboo, pork chashu, ramen and garlic oil. I also ordered the fried chicken.

My sister ordered the vegetable Ramen which has vegetable soup, green onion, vegetable chips, shredded chili, eringi mushroom, porcini mushroom oil and paprika. along with Fried chicken served with a spicy code & mayonnaise sauce.

Ramen Bar Ichi food is fresh, mouthwatering and bursting in flavor. The ramen was soft and the soup was milky and creamy. The Fried chicken was soft, tender and not greasy at all. The spicy code and mayonnaise was amazing and perfect on the chicken. The chicken was served with spring onions, tomato and cucumber. Plus the slice of orange was perfect for a sweet treat afterwards.

If you are ever in Houston make sure to check out Ramen Bar Ichi for an authentic Japanese meal and hopefully by then they will have added more to the menu selection.

With the Christmas period coming up there has been a new company called the the Light Fest. The Light Festival is an amazing, magical evening allowing adults, couples and families to make a lifetime memory by making wishes and dreams to the sky by letting go of fears, and embracing your true self to light fire to lanterns. The light Festival is a family friendly event which takes place rain or sun with environmental friendly lanterns made of sustainable materials and will be picked up once the lanterns fall to the ground.

The Light fest does not allow any pet animals at this event. The light Fest is priced depending on available tickets and approximate to event dates. Prices range from $25-$55 and include a lantern, a marker and key chain flashlight inside a swag bag.

I have always wanted to attend a light festival event especially after watching a number of Korean dramas on DramaFever and Viki. So when I saw this event on Facebook, I knew this was a must see and even cancelled an extra credit event for class to attend this event.

The light festival started at 1:30pm with check-in to receive your swag bags and get seats. I wouldn’t really call this a festival because there wasn’t really much to do. They had a couple of stalls providing food from hot dogs, burgers, fries, turkey legs and nachos. Plus a small stage where they performed some live music by a singer called Mitchell Ferguson. Mitchell Ferguson is a singer born and raised in Dallas Texas for more information on him check him out on YouTube.

We arrived late around 3:00pm which made it a long wait time, so it is important to bring plenty of things to do to entertain yourself. Even better bring food and snacks and make this into a feasting slumber party and even bring a movie or a board game or two. The event truly starts around dark which can vary depending on sunset of the day. We started around 6:30pm and the event was truly beautiful and magical, and one of the best events I’ve ever been to. Throughout all of my adrenaline events just seeing the beauty in the world is by far the best.

If you plan on going to the event check out some of the tips below and make sure you are prepared.

Tips:

Bring your own food, drinks and snacks(A Indian family brought more dishes than I could count and everything smelled and looked amazing.)
Bring Blankets and chairs to sit on the floor (make this into a slumber party, relax and keep warm)
Bring Books and games for the wait time (there was no internet).
Arrive closer to lantern lighting if you don’t want to wait around.
Bring cash for parking and food.
Bring a large group- the more people the more fun.
Buy your tickets early to get the cheapest price.
Leave late (parking was extremely bad – couldn’t get out of the parking lot straight away).
