Quotes
-
Tampopo : Please tell me the recipe for this broth.
Ramen shop owner in Chinatown : The recipe for my broth? Never! You're a pro. I can tell by the look in your eyes. I can't give a competitor my secrets!
Tampopo : Please! I'll pay!
Ramen shop owner in Chinatown : How much?
Tampopo : Say... 50,000 yen?
Ramen shop owner in Chinatown : Forget it! If you want to pay, loan me one million yen to be paid back in a year, interest-free. Then I'll give you the recipe for free.
Tampopo : A million yen...
Old man next door to ramen shop : Listen to me! Don't lend him that million. He bets on speedboats. You'll never get it back. Give me 30,000 yen and I'll give you his recipe. My shop's next door. Come back late tonight with the money.
