"At this casual Japanese shokudo, founded in 2023 in Salt Lake City’s Marmalade district, chef Hiro Tagai, a Tokyo-trained ramen expert, and chef Felipe Oliveira focus on traditional Japanese cuisine, including ramen and washoku, using fresh, seasonal ingredients to honor nature’s flavors. The extensive menu includes a classic Tokyo-style chuka soba in a delicate chicken and pork stock with tender chashu pork, as well as desserts like ice cream infused with kuromitsu, a Japanese black sugar, and topped with roasted soybean flour. Best for: Diners with dietary restrcitions, who can enjoy options like the tantan-men, a vegetarian ramen with creamy sesame stock and mapo chili." - Sarah Entwistle
