中華そば 無限 (Chukasoba Mugen in Osaka)

Ultra-refined shoyu ramen is fairly common in recent years. You can find shops like this from Hokkaido to Kyushu, and big cities like Osaka obviously have their share. Mugen is the cream of the crop. The master, Mr. Okada (岡田店主) has been in the restaurant game for a long time. He ran yakiniku restaurants for over 10 years.

中華そば 無限 (Chukasoba Mugen in Osaka)

Ultra-refined shoyu ramen is fairly common in recent years. You can find shops like this from Hokkaido to Kyushu, and big cities like Osaka obviously have their share. Mugen is the cream of the crop. The master, Mr. Okada (岡田店主) has been in the restaurant game for a long time. He ran yakiniku restaurants for over 10 years. He eventually left the restaurant industry to work as a repo man for a car rental service until his friend called from Australia. His friend wanted to expand his bento lunchbox restaurant into a ramen shop. Okada-san, with little experience in the matter, took a crash course with the Yamato Noodle School, and brought that knowledge down under. When he returned to Japan, he tried his hand at running his own ramen shop.

I'm currently breaking down the Top 100 #hyakumeiten #百名店 shops from around Japan. This one is 17/100 on the Osaka list.

Ramen at Mugen (中華そば 無限)

Recommended bowl: 100% Nagoya chickens

Master Okada-san makes his clear shoyu soup from 100% Nagoya Cochin chickens, and recommends eating slowly because the complexity of the soup changes and actually tastes better once it cools down a bit. The noodles are house-made containing standard ramen flour mixed with udon noodle flour. Delectable hand crafted toppings. A well balanced, light yet satisfying bowl. Open since 2010.
