Kogaryu Seimen (Kobe, Nada-ku)

Torigara tsukemen: 13 / 20

I was quite eager to try this highly rated ramen joint in Eastern Kobe, located close to JR’s Sumiyoshi station. They feature several different specialties: tsukemen, torigara tsukemen, and shoyu ramen. Although I’m not a big fan of chicken-based soup, I was curious to try they torigara tsukemen.


Broth: Surprising liquid, it didn’t stick so much the noodles, but still gave to them a strong chicken taste. The soup-wari led to a fat, smooth chicken soup, which was surprisingly similar to a mushroom soup.

Noodles: Quite thin.

Meat: A few bits of kind of hard, unremarkable meat.

Toppings: Some menma with a subtle, pleasant taste. A few green filament vegetables.

Overall, this was original and not unpleasant, but not so high quality - certainly not worth their very high ranking to me. Maybe their shoyu ramen is better.
