Tokujo Shio
- Edit x taking down 1 star as I learned that they took out the egg, menma, coriander, 1 each nori and wonton and duck chashu vs. a year ago, all the while increasing the base price. Feeling some level of regret supporting this kind of practices.
A very "Michelin" type of ramen, no weakness, unique yet paradoxically standard.
At this price point (an insane 2,200+ booking fee!) and booking system, that's not a go-back type of experience and would almost call it a rip-off
Details:
- Broth ++ oily chicken and unique bitter taste from what seems to be sea bream, might be wrong
- Noodle x "spaghetti" type, typical of this kind chicken ramen, not my personal preference
- Pork chashu +++ could be some of the best I tried, it's the masterpiece imo
- Pork belly ++ very good, top tier
- Grilled chicken x good, no surprise here
- Wonton + very nice firmness of texture, taste is good but not top tier
- Topping + only green onion, but taste works very well. At this price point you'd expect at least an egg for the tokujo though
- Space x lots of unused space, comfortable seating but gives an unnecessary luxury "you could fit double the people and sell for half the price" feel
- Service + not especially nice, efficient fast serving
