The photo note

Miso ramen! Perfect for last night's somewhat chilly weather. #ramen #noodles #grub #soup #foodforfoodies #foodography #foodphotography #foodpics #convoy #sdfoodie #sandiegofoodie #sdig #igsd #sandiego #goodeats #japanese #livetoeat #foodnation #foodspott…

Looking back

The SD Foodie take

Editorial commentary written from Roger’s original photograph and caption. Roger’s own words are the quoted photo note above.

A deep orange miso broth under thick, springy noodles, topped with chashu, sweet corn, a soft-boiled egg with a jammy yolk and a heap of scallions.

It is a textbook chilly-night bowl, and the caption says exactly that. The post tags Convoy but not the shop, so this stays a neighborhood record — one of many ramen bowls in the corridor that has long been San Diego’s noodle capital.

The quick critique

What stood out

  • Rich miso broth
  • A jammy soft-boiled egg
  • Chashu and sweet corn

Bottom line

Archive verdict

A classic miso bowl for a cool San Diego night, from the city’s ramen corridor.
