🇯🇵 JAPAN (via Eat the World Los Angeles) - For many, tonkotsu broth can be a bit overwhelming with all the porcine glory of bones and fat remaining in each rich bite, but here like in the Hakata Ward of Fukuoka the broth is clean and lovely. It is by no means light, but it has a care that does not go into many bowls thrown on menus in California. Even if you usually avoid this style of ramen, it is worth testing it out here for a truer taste of how it should be done.
I come here for authentic tonkotsu ramen. Ordered with premium toppings which doubles the pork and adds a boiled egg. The full-flavored pork broth is their specialty here and definitely one of the best around! Highly recommended!
Went here by chance tonight wanting a hot soup and ordered the Tonkatau Ramen with everything. I have to say I was very pleasantly surprised. The broth was excellent, the bamboo was fresh and tasty and the Nori was excellent. Pork pieces were a good size and the Wood ear mushrooms were splendid. The combination was like many I’ve had in Taiwan and Japan so it was great to have those familiar tastes here. I combined this with Karage (fried chicken) which had a wonderful crispy texture although the chicken was a little dry for my taste. I’m retrospect the ramen was easily big enough to be filling so the chicken wasn’t necessary but I was hungry. Staff were super friendly and very helpful. This is a gem of a ramen shop and worth a visit. I can highly recommend
