Boston Foodie Alert: Best Japanese Fried Chicken & Ramen! 🍜✨

📍 Tora Ramen 99 Harrison Ave, Boston, MA 02111 This is my top ramen spot in Boston—mainly because their karaage (fried chicken) is INSANELY good! Most ramen bowls are solid too. Cash only (ATM on-site if you forget!). 🍜 Ramen Rankings: ✅ Miso Ramen 🌟🌟🌟🌟 My #1 pick! Balanced broth, chewy thick noodles, and perfectly charred chashu (not fatty!). The soft-boiled egg? Chef’s kiss 😋. ✅ Spicy Miso Ramen 🌶️ Same as above but with a mild kick. Too spicy for me to sip broth, but great if you love heat! ✅ Original Tonkotsu Ramen 🥢 Lighter but flavorful. Thin noodles (Suzhou-style lovers rejoice!) and clean, tender pork slices. ✅ Black Garlic Tonkotsu Ramen 🖤 Garlicky depth (not squid ink—oops!). Rich but gets oily by the end. Garlic fans, this is yours! 🍗 Must-Order Sides: ✅ Kuro Karaage 🐔💥 CRISPY thin batter, juicy inside. The black coating (squid ink?) adds flair without weird flavors. Order 2x! ✅ Korokke (Croquettes) 🥔 Standard but freshly fried and comforting. #RamenLovers #JapaneseFood #BostonEats #ComfortFood #FoodieFaves
