Finally a ramen place close by to me! Ramen Bar, by Michael Mina. Collectively the three of us ordered:
SF CHASU MISO-BUTTER HOKKAIDO: braised pork, garlic, sweet corn, soy-cured egg (richer, bolder flavor)
TOKYO-STYLE KUROBUTA PORK: wakame, soy-cured egg, spinach (lighter, aromatic broth)
GINGER-BRAISED CHICKEN: soy-cured egg, bamboo, spinach, yuzukosho (lighter, aromatic broth)
I did not love the noodles, felt a bit like instant noodles, but the broths were pretty good. At $14, $12 and $12 a bowl the portions were decent too especially for downtown. Special shout out to the ginger-braised chicken broth. The broth was as described, light and aromatic, and I was pleasantly surprised by how flavourful yet clean tasting it was. Yeah I think I would go back again when the craving for ramen returns and I do not feel like going somewhere far away. Might be interesting to try the donburis, or add on a braised pork belly.
