"You ever have one of those days where everything goes wrong and all you need is one small win to turn it all around? We’re talking about times when you forget the Sox are playing so you’re stuck under a 19-year-old townie’s armpit on the T on the way home. Tsurumen provides the reset you’re looking for. The classic order is the pork shoyu, but for those rainy days when you’re really in need of a cure-all, go with the soul-restoring chicken paitan. Whichever ramen you do choose, make sure to add on the perfectly custardy onsen egg. The place is full of regulars who have their order already memorized, which makes total sense the second you taste their chewy homemade noodles. Just be prepared for a (quick) line on the weekends." - lala thaddeus
