Curry tsukemen : 18 / 20
(カレーつけ麺)
I was quite eager to make discover this favorite ramen restaurant of mine to my family. Being there at 11:10 to avoid the queue, we were unlucky enough to arrive just after a large group of sports kids - so be warned that it can get popular at any time. Anyway, waiting twenty minutes was not that bad for such a great place. My family ordered the regular ramen with ajitama. As for me, I wanted to try the aemen (和え麺 ; that's basically a mazemen); but it wasn’t available on that day, so I turned to a curry tsukemen I had never tried - with, of course, the famous yuzu nooddles.
Broth: A good curry taste that gives a significant twist to the usual excellent sour tonkotsu-gyokai.
Noodles: Yuzu noodles may be the greatest invention of mankind since alkaline water. Brilliant.
Meat: Some bits of meat with melting fat, very good.
Egg: A well-cooked egg, on the hard side, with a very dark yolk.
Topping: A slightly spicy mushroom and a pickled tomato with a slightly sour taste, which both fit very well with the broth. Some very fibrous menma with a mild taste.
Instead of soup wari, you get some rice in your curry sauce for a last curry-rice experience. I’m not a big fan of curry rice but this was convincing - did they also add some cheese?
I could say that this was the best curry ramen-dish I’ve ever eaten, but that would not tell much, since this is only my third one. Let’s put it another way then: this is very probably the best curry ramen-like dish I’m ever going to eat, as I doubt it could get much better than this. If you love kare ramen, you have to try this.
Oh and the ramen was simply divine, as usual. The noodles seemed to get soft a bit faster than last time tough.
