Ladies and gentlemen, I give you THE BEST GYOZA I've ever eaten in my life! Hands Down! Ever!! They come from a place called Tamuraya--a ramen-ya that hand makes their noodles and gyoza skins on a daily basis. And they are stuffed (and I mean STUFFED) with some of the freshest ingredients on this Earth, at least they tasted that way.
The Shoyu Ramen was also sensational! They only use a small dab of shoyu tare, which gives it a light, refreshing flavor. It actually tastes more like shio ramen with a hint of shoyu. The thick, flat noodles are probably top 5, if not the best so far that I've had on this trip. Sano Ramen has definitely left an indelible impression. If you're in Tokyo, I highly recommend that you go. It's less than two hours away by train and very, very, very worth it!
I'll be back in Tokyo for a couple days to unwind and prepare for the rest of my trip. I'm not sure what I'll be doing or where I'll be going, but rest assured I'll find something.
I'm meeting Brian again in Shibuya tonight, so look out for some additional ramen pics in the slide show very soon.
Hi Keizo,
ReplyDeleteWOW! Tamuraya! Thanks for sharing that great experience - Best Gyoza and Top 5 Ramen??
The fact that they make their own Ramen Noodles and Gyoza is impressive and from the the pics alone I could tell that Noodle is something special. :) Hope all is well.
Dude, you would love this place!
