Taishoken Ramen / 大勝軒

January 15, 2015

Tsukemen ramen, Original: Soup and noodle served separately w pork belly chashu - 2+

J's comment > very eggy noodles w just the right amt of bounce and thickness; extremely rich broth, just the way I like it; although I asked for hot noodles, the noodles still arrived semi-warm, ergo the addition of not-so-hot noodles to a not-so-hot broth didn't help turn up the heat either; sadly the pork belly was practically all fat

Spicy Miso Tonkotsu ramen: Golden rich pork & chicken broth w pork shoulder chashu - 2

J's comment > definitely not the same type of noodles and broth; noodles were a smidgen less thick and a smidgen less eggy; broth was not as rich either; pork shoulder definitely lean but not too dry
