Sometimes this hapa girl just wants a spooky bowl of ramen. Black rice ramen noodles are perfect for Halloween week! A fried tofu ghosts sits atop with chives, red kamaboko (steamed fish cake), and boiled carrot cut-outs. Back in the late 70s, you could order a bowl of ramen at McDonald's in Hawaii and you would get a couple of pieces of kamaboko on top. Don't know if they still offer that now, but I always thought that was cool. I had purchased some Enoki mushrooms, but forgot to use them. They would have added a great spooky touch.
The matcha cake monsters have piped dark chocolate with candy eyes and blanched almond teeth. The crescent moons are Japanese cheese cake cut into shape.
The products below are found at Asian grocery stores. The kamaboko is found in the frozen section and the matcha cake is in the refrigerated area.
