Michelin-Recognized Noodles in Ginza
Ginza Hachigou’s ramen has a clear soup built around chicken, with toppings of cured ham, shellfish, and pot herbs that linger on in the palate. The delicate soup is matched with thin noodles that still maintain a firm core, bringing out the soup’s aroma with each mouthful. The noodles themselves are packed with satisfying wheaty flavor. Another selling point is how the flavor remains powerful even as the soup cools.
