麺や而今 大東本店 (Jikon in Osaka)

麺や而今 大東本店 (Jikon in Osaka)
If you nerd out about deep umami flavors, this bowl is up there. The master uses konbu from Raosu and Rishiri islands in Hokkaido, considered the best in Japan. If you are ever lucky enough to visit that part of the country, you’ll see small-scale mom-and-pop kelp operations, where pristine pieces are hand dried by hand and delicately wrapped up to be shipped to the finest restaurants. With that as the base, he flavors this bowl with a special tare reasoning made from ayu fish sauce and natural, unprocessed shoyu.

神名備 (Kamunabi in Nishi-Nippori)
The restaurant has a friendly atmosphere and offers shoyu ramen with extra pork, which was priced at 1200 yen back when ramen was usually no more than 800. The shoyu is a healthier option, but the dry appearance of the meat is due to its flavorful nature. The soup is refreshing and light, with abundant vegetable flavors. The meat is tender and juicy, and the homemade menu items like seasonal onigiri and puddings are enticing. Kamunabi is a great spot for chashu fans.

支那そば たんたん亭 (Tantantei in Hamadayama)
Tantantei, an old-school style ramen shop, is famous for its wontons, which are a key difference from chukasoba. The shop offers a mix bowl with pork and shrimp wontons, and wonton soup for a low carb diet. The wontons are legit. This shop's dynasty is insane.

This hidden gem in Tokyo's Tochigi prefecture is known for its rock vibe and a unique menu featuring shio and shoyu ramen. The shio ramen is made with Japanese trout, while the 鶏ホタテそば is a chicken and scallop bowl. The trout ramen has a fishy flavor similar to salmon, while the chicken-based soup is a simple base for the pork and beef chashu. Located near the Tokyo Sky Tree, it feels undiscovered.

Tanaka Shoten is a famous shop in the greater Tokyo area for Nagahama-style tonkotsu ramen, known for its traditional and open-late mentality. The trek to get there takes about an hour with five line changes. The shop is known for its long lines and small menu, but the trek can elevate a bowl from ordinary to extraordinary. The only outlying option is the red devil spice mix, a tangy dollop of spiced ground pork. Although the trek may not be for solo travelers, Tanaka Shoten is a great destination ramen in Tokyo.

En, a popular shop in Tokyo, has been a popular destination since 2009, offering three bowls of note: Niboshi, mukashinagara, and shio. The niboshi bowl is lighter than other popular shops, and the omori size meal is easily finished. En also offers a daily draw of fresh eggs, including duck, Araucana, and brown Cochin, for 300 yen. Although not the biggest fan of raw egg on rice, the duck egg was great. En's hours are determined by soup availability, so it's recommended to arrive early.
