Recommended bowl: High-level tori paitan

Sumisu serves a satisfying shio ramen blended with the taste of toripaitan, a smooth chicken soup. The shop is named after master Sumi-san, who hails from Kyushu. The influence is apparent, as noodles here are somewhat similar to the style popular in Kyushu. This bowl falls on the lighter side of the tori-paitan spectrum — it's creamy but very drinkable. One hundred percent chicken with no pork and no MSG. Noodles come ordered from the purveyor Mikawaya Seimen. The bowls are topped with tori chashu and a meatball made from ground chicken. The shop also serves tori tsuke soba (dipping ramen), shoyu ramen and shiru nashi tantanmen, but the ramen is recommended. Open since 2012. Less
