Ramen made with beef bones have been all the rave lately and Matador (牛骨らぁ麺 マタドール) in Kitasenju has been topping the charts. But don't let them fool ya, beef is not a new phenomenon.
Anyhow, with Calvin on my left and Jordan on my right, it was time to get down.
The bowl's beauty...is no bull.
The noodles are a bit soft...
But the rhythm is within beat.
Like most beef ramen, the soup is on the sweeter side, but this is a legit bowl of bull.
And speaking of bull...
BLACOWS!!
Quite possibly the best burger I've had in Tokyo.
But then again, compared to ramen I haven't eaten many.
I've put Matador on the list of ramen shops to hit the next time I'm there.
ReplyDeleteAs for hamburgers; you would think somebody in Tokyo would start a blog or W-WW site rating hamburgers, even if only in Japanese. There was a link here to some guy who attempted it (in English), but he had not updated it since May 2009, and it is now gone from the W-WW.
