The clear yet rich broth at Ramen Jinsei Jet is made by simmering chicken bones for over 10 hours, and a single sip fills the palate with umami. Despite the richness, though, the finish is surprisingly clean. The reason for this shop’s broad fan base is immediately clear.
The rich soup is perfectly matched by chewy noodles made from domestically grown wheat. The delicate balance of the noodles and soup makes you want to drain the bowl dry. This is one ramen that can’t be left out when discussing Osaka’s ramen scene.
