人類みな麺類 東京本店 Jinruimenrui in Ebisu.
Jinruimenrui means “noodles for all humanity.” They come from the oddly-named UNCHI group (unchi means poop in Japanese) out of Osaka. With a few popular shops bringing massive lines in Osaka, it makes sense that they venture out east to Japan’s capital city.

- Ramen Adventures added a new meal Dinner at 麺屋彩音 at sign (麺屋 彩音)
麺屋 彩音 ~Sign~. Sign in Gotanda.
The limited bowl was so off-the-wall that I had to try it. It was called Shirakansu (シーラカンス) which is a nod to a Mr. Children song. Clear beef soup with truffle oil. A deep-fried half-cooked egg. Daikon radish with a cheesy mashed potato puree. Wine sauce. Beef tenderloin. I can only describe this... More

The limited bowl was so off-the-wall that I had to try it. It was called Shirakansu (シーラカンス) which is a nod to a Mr. Children song. Clear beef soup with truffle oil. A deep-fried half-cooked egg. Daikon radish with a cheesy mashed potato puree. Wine sauce. Beef tenderloin. I can only describe this one by literally listing the ingredients. Weird and fun. Not something I’d ever order again. The normal bowl is a repeater.

- Ramen Adventures added a new meal Dinner at SOWER at SOWER
Sower (@restaurant_sower) is a new spot on the north side of Japan's Lake Biwa. Mother Lake. Local ingredients from the area, like ayu 鮎 and masu 鱒 are found at high end restaurants around Japan, so it's nice to go to the source. Looking forward to see what the next season holds.

- Ramen Adventures added a new meal Dinner at スパイス&ベジタブル チリトマラーメン THANK at チリトマラーメン THANK
チリトマラーメン THANK
Chili Tomato Ramen Thank is the third shop from the THANK group. Their original shop (鶏ポタラーメン THANK) is a crowd favorite with their thick chicken and vegetable potage soup, but can a rebranded spicy tomato version live up to their reputation? Absolutely. This is an off-the-wall bowl that delivers.

- Ramen Adventures added a new meal Dinner at 博多ラーメンばりこて at Hakata Ramen Barikote (博多ラーメン ばりこて)
博多ラーメン ばりこて
Real Kyushu-style ramen is surprisingly uncommon in the Tokyo ramen-sphere. There are plenty of tonkotsu-gyokai places, but not a lot, apart from the chains, that do a creamy tonkotsu with thin, low-hydration noodles. Barikote in Koenji is a nice example of this style. Kaedama anyone?

- Ramen Adventures added a new meal Dinner at 豚そば月や at Butasoba Tsukiya Tokyo (豚そば 月や 東京)
豚そば 月や 東京
Clear tonkotsu soup is on most ramen hunter’s radars, with Rai Rai being the holy grail. For those who don’t want to fly to Fukuoka, take an hour train ride, book a cheap hotel, and wake up at five in the morning for a bowl of this style, just head to posh Hiroo, a city within Tokyo. Tsukiya (or is it Getsuya?) brings this... More

一九ラーメン 糟屋店
Ikkyu (One-Nine) has a few locations around Fukuoka, but it’s the Kasuya shop you gotta visit. Sure, it’s a little bit of a walk (11 minutes) from the nearest station, but it’s a very nice walk along rice paddies and forested hills. The ramen rewards are worth it.

Sure, it’s a little bit of a walk (11 minutes) from the nearest station, but it’s a very nice walk along rice paddies and forested hills. The ramen rewards are worth it. Tonkotsu ramen that is purposefully less sweet than your average Kyushu bowl with wontons and tender chashu. Let’s go!

ニシムラ麺 - Nishinuramen in Fukuoka
Elevated ramen is the name of the game when French-Japanese-fusion restaurant La Cuisine Creativite Nishimura Takahito rebrands at Nishimuramen during lunch service. Dinner can set you back a few hundred dollars, but lunch is nothing but noodles.

- Ramen Adventures added a new meal Dinner at ラーメン英二 at Ramen Eiji (ラーメン英二)
ラーメン英二
Occasionally, a Jiro-style shop does a soupless version of their garlic-laden beast. This is music to my ears, as it is my style of choice. Give me the garlic and give me the fat. You can keep that soup to yourself. Another perk is the liberal use of junky toppings. Cheese, raw eggs, and various flavor enhancers here I come!

I randomly wandered into Sanpotei while having a bit of a sanpo (散歩 – casual stroll) around Nakameguro one day. Chinese hot and sour soup is called sanratan (酸辣湯) in Japanese. It is very uncommon in my experience of dining at all levels of Chinese around Japan, but here it is. It’s also, according to my Chinese friends, not so common around mainland China either.
