Tontori tsukemen: 14 / 20
A couple of minutes away from Kawasaki station, this restaurant features ‘tontori’ tsukemen and ramen, made with pork and chicken, as well as a more classical tsukemen. After several gyokai tonkotsu tsukemen in the last few days, I thought it would be interesting to try a different-but-related specialty and I went with their tontori tsukemen.
Broth: There is chicken in there, no doubt about it! It definitely wins over the pork. A bit too fat for me, though (although it is the fat that makes it stick to the noodles).
Noodles: Slightly curly, al dente, with a classical egg taste, very good as usual - although maybe a little bit on the starchy side.
Meat: A thin, firm and overall relatively unremarkable slice of chashu.
Toppings: Some menma with a strong taste of preserved food. A slice of kamaboko. A sheet of nori.
This bowl was an interesting change from tonkotsu gyokai tsukemen, but it really lacks the deepness, complexity and smoothness of the latter. If you love chicken, you may want to try it though. Overall, it was good, but nothing exceptional.
