Dinner at Ramen Koike

らぁめん小池 (Koike in Kamikitazawa)

Koike, a ramen shop in Tokyo, offers three styles: niboshi-rich clear soup, shoyu clear soup, and thick soup. The kotteri ramen is smooth and intense, while the egg is surprisingly unseasoned and soaked in katsuo broth for umami. Despite being a bit out of the way, the shop is worth a visit for its unique ramen experience.

Ramen at Koike (らぁめん 小池)

on 16 Aug 2020

Recommended bowl: Heavy niboshi

A highly ranked shop, worth repeat visits to sample the various dishes across the menu. Most bowls are centered around a niboshi soup, in both rich and light versions. But there's also spicy Taiwan-style ramen, aburasoba and limited edition dishes. The noodles are thin, straight and excellent; supplied by Murakami Asahi Seimen. The thin-sliced pink chashu is laid out like a flower in the center of the bowls.
