Recommended bowl: Authentic Wakayama style

This spacious, rural Osaka shop serves up authentic Wakayama-style tonkotsu shoyu. The shop feels like it's been around for decades, with a nostalgic, school cafeteria-like feel to the large dining area. The ramen is typical Wakayama-style: rich, pork-based shoyu broth, straight noodles, layered with thin slices of pork-belly chashu, green negi and naruto fish cake. Some opt for a raw egg on top. Hard-boiled eggs and mackerel sushi rolls are available on the counter or for takeout. A nice Wakayama-style shop. Less
