What kind of Japanese Ramen is Good
0
Has anyone here ever tried real japanese ramen. I found theres a ramen shop in Las Vegas and I want to try it but I don't have any clue what type of ramen I should order. Till now I've just been eating instant chicken flavor ramen so I guess a ramen that's close to chicken flavor would be nice, beef flavor would also be acceptable. I also wanna know what kinds of japanese ramen you guys like and also I want to know what is the deal with an egg i sometimes see in japanese ramen, seems kinda weird to me. I know some of the names of different ramen like miso ramen, tonkatsu ramen but I have no idea what they taste like.

Curious and Wondering
The egg... it's just a common topping, but mostly associated with Tokyo-style ramen. The hard-boiled egg yolk, when mixed with the soup, somewhat milds it down. But it can be substituted with nori, crab sticks, and other toppings.
I prefer seafood ramen. Tastes great with tempura side toppings, low in fat, and rich in flavor.

I've eaten many kinds of Ramen, depending on which restaurant you go to in the USA. Sheo ramen and Oxtail's ramen was good, but the Hakata/kimchi ramen was so-so. Real ramen, no matter where it's cooked, boils down to the time spent boiling the soup, the noodles, and the meat - the soft and sweet pork is heaven.

When I went to Japan, there were noodle shops everywhere. Pretty much all the different kinds of Ramen are good but it depends on who's cooking it and how they make the soup bases. Personally I like Shoyu ramen which uses a salt as a base.

Mmmmmmmmm, Shôyu Ramen... *drool* To bad, is like one ramen resturant in the whole city here, and it's expensive as hell. Anyway, Shôyu Ramen is teh shit.
