"The kakuni-style chashu is a surprise. Rare to find this level in Motoyawata." "The chewy, thick noodles are unique—you can feel the Musashi influence." "Precious to find a ramen shop that opens at 9 AM." "The rich seafood tsukemen broth is the best. Coming back for sure." "A bit away from Motoyawata but worth the trip."
