Taishio Soba Touka

Upon my brothers instruction, just been all the way to akebonobashi to try Tai Shio Soba Toka. The venue is remarkably unspectacular, 10 seats and pretty bog-standard decor. However, what makes this place a must visit for ramen heads is their unique sea bream broth. Whilst this might sound a bit fishy, the bowl actually felt quite light and not too rich. They slap a piece of sliced chashu in the middle which gives a bit of a surf n turf vibe - with some grated yuzu on top which gives it some much need sharpness and tang. The soba noodles are some of the best I’ve ever had. Egg was probably 10 seconds over. Overall, this is for sure one of the best, and another must visit for those who might want to try a fish ramen. Sitting there by myself, slurping away, whilst one of the (clearly more senior) dudes was just ordering around and shouting at the other guy was also total atmos. 5/5
