It's been 5 years since my last visit to Raa Menya Shima! Previously, they operated on a first-come, first-served basis, but now they have switched to a reservation-only system via TableCheck.The restaurant has only 6 counter seats, and the chef runs the show solo.When I entered, there was no confirmation of my name or reservation time, which made me a bit anxious... Next time, I’ll make sure to introduce myself! ✌︎('ω')✌︎This time, I ordered the Special Soy Sauce Ramen.The broth has a strong presence of both the dashi and soy sauce, yet they are perfectly balanced. At first, I thought the soy sauce was a bit overpowering, but then the aroma of the dashi gently spread out. It harmonizes beautifully...The char siu, grilled over charcoal, is also exquisite! It has a smoky aroma and is moist, tender, and juicy. It's the best I've ever had in my life.The overall quality remains outstanding. You can really feel the chef's dedication and skill in every detail.Although the chef has a tough appearance, he is very polite and kind. Please take care of yourself.Since it's now easier to make reservations than before, I plan to visit regularly from now on! ✌︎('ω')✌︎
