Ah Ramen Jiro….what an exquisite indulgence….
Delicious chunks of pork the size of my fist!!
But….am I alone in getting crazy diarrhea about 20 minutes after I eat it? It happens every time!!

Haha…probably too oily for you ? I’ve fortunately not suffered any ill effects after eating Jiro. 😛

Unfortunately I missed out on this special. At least I got your pictures 🙂 Will need to look for it second hand when I’m in Japan again.

Hey Jacob, Kinokuniya often stock back numbers, so if you’re lucky you might still find a new copy at one of their stores in Shinjuku. :]
