Go Go Godzilla! East Village Field Work

A few weeks back I heard that Zombie Burger was going to have a Godzilla themed ramen pop-up restaurant. It was unclear how long it would last, so I knew I had to get there as soon as possible. It might be around for years, but I couldn’t take the risk.

I contacted my nieces and nephews to see if any of them would like to join. Brandon, Johnathan, Elainie, Sabas, and Elawyn joined me. It was a pretty great night!

Here are some pictures from the meal:

The last 2 pictures don’t have anything to do with the meal, but it was a business we walked by on our way to the car and I thought I should throw it out there in case anybody was looking for a waxing.

THE GOOD

  • A great night with great family!
  • Godzilla! I mean come on! Godzilla!
  • The ramen was excellent!
  • So much Godzilla art. Godzilla!
  • The Mango Boba was solid!

THE BAD

  • Adding meat didn’t really add much. It was a very small portion of meat.
  • Not really sure how long it will be around. They didn’t even seem to know.

THE UGLY

  • They serve gross Coke products, pretty much forcing you to get a delicious Boba.
  • Logan and Alexis don’t love Godzilla enough to show up. Tsk. Tsk.

THE DAMAGE

  • I paid for Brandon’s meal for his birthday. So for 1 Atomic Edamame, Mothra Ramen with pulled pork, Jet Jaguar Ramen with pork belly, a Mango Boba, 2 stickers, and tip, it was $72.39. Sabas and Elainie purchased Brandon’s drink.

THE VERDICT

  • I would definitely go again. I’m not sure how long it will be around, but if it is still around when this publishes I hope to go at least one more time.

HOW YOU EAT THERE
