Ichiran

6/10
Ichiran

This is my first time trying Ichiran. The first thing to note is the broth tastes more fishy than I've had before. The meat seems a little disappointing, like crappy slices of bacon. The egg is just a salted hard boiled egg, not marinated and not runny. The noodles are a solid average. I do like the privacy of the individual booths at Ichiran which does allow you to focus solely on your ramen. This is fine ramen but I wouldn't go mad for it.

Teshikaga Ramen

7/10 Teshikaga Ramen A nice fishy bowl of ramen. The highlight for me was the noodles. They were such a deep colour and had great flavour and chewiness. The meat was barbecued pork and tasted good. The menma and spring onions were also good. Like I said, it was a fishy soup which isn't my favourite but the flavour was light and it made for a great bowl of ramen. I'd definitely eat again at one of their many stores.

Salt Ramen in Shinjuku

7/10 Salt ramen in Shinjuku This was a solid flavourful soup with 3 types of delicious meat and 2 wantons. The toppings of menma and scallions were nice. The egg could have been better both in terms of marination and yolk softness. The noodles were the biggest let down for me. They were a nice thickness and firmness but lacked flavour. Overall a good ramen but didn't live up to its peers standards. 麺屋 翔 本店 7-chōme-22-34 Nishishinjuku, Shinjuku City, Tōkyō-to 160-0023 03-3364-5787 https://maps.app.goo.gl/DuBhJghxUjJFNNry8

Another Michelin Recommended Ramen

7/10 Another Michelin Recommended Ramen This is really good ramen. The best bit is the meat, it's absolutely amazing. There's 4 different types and each one is fantastic. The noodles are soba and they're really light and delicious. The soup is also really light but a bit fishy for my liking. It is really delicate and not at all a fishy soup but the fish is there and I don't like it. All of the toppings are really high quality and taste fantastic. I'm a little sad because this was exceptional ramen but that slight fish taste let it down for me. I really wanted to love it.
