“My usual at Ichiran! So far, the one of many ramen shops in Manhattan that don’t make me feel too bloated afterwards.”

“I ordered the Miso Pork Chashu Ramen to-go. It had “grilled miso-glazed pork hashu, spicy ground pork, kimchi, kikurage mushroom, menma, and scallions.” The broth was pork bone with spicy miso. The broth was savory and the toppings were delicious. I really enjoyed the flavor the ground pork and kimchi added to the experience. The pork slices weren’t especially flavorful, but the broth was strong enough that I wasn’t too disappointed. I wasn’t expecting the restaurant to only accept cash, Venmo, Zelle or CashApp, but they had an ATM where I was able to extract funds since I don’t use those apps. Just something to be aware of.”

“This is the Classic Ramen with “signature tonkotsu pork broth topped with 2 slices of Chashu pork and Green Onions.” This is an example of classic thin noodles, standard noodle firmness, and standard thickness and richness of the broth. I like to add karadare and rekkarise (medium) for some spice.”

“Taishoken was a really solid experience. The first thing I noticed was the broth temperature. It came out lukewarm, which caught me off guard at first. After a few bites, it was clear that it is intentional. Everyone at the table had the same experience. The lower temperature actually lets you taste the broth more clearly. It feels more concentrated and layered instead of just hot and salty. The chashu was high quality. Thick slices, tender texture, and a great fat to meat balance. It tasted clean and well prepared. As a group, we all loved the appetizers. The calamari with the ginger chili sauce was the table favorite. That sauce is addictive. Bright ginger, a little heat, and just enough sweetness. We kept dipping everything in it. The karaage was excellent too. Crispy on the outside, juicy inside, and well seasoned. They gave us a large booth that comfortably fit six to eight people, which made it great for a group dinner. The waitresses and the store manager were really kind and attentive throughout the night. Overall, very flavorful and clearly intentional in execution. I would definitely go back. @norryshio @dannywu @chewyaki @kevin”
