"Brookline’s popular ramen shop Ganko Ittetsu has a must-try sibling restaurant, Gantetsu-Ya, which is conveniently located right across the hallway from the packed noodle joint. Gantetsu-Ya focuses on karaage, a deep-fried, bite-sized Japanese chicken preparation, which is served with one of three house-made sauces: garlic ponzu, Thai curry, and spicy Korean gochujang. The karaage, always made to order, are deeply savory and juicy on the inside." - Valerie Li Stack
