麺屋 優創 (Yusaku), Tokyo, Japan

Day 1 and a half - Tokyo.

After tasting the nama hotate at the revolving sushi store double confirmed that the best food is still in Japan!  Unbelievable! Why cant the hotate in the states can be that tasty?  the whole hotate with the salted rice complete feel the gap between my mouth.  yes, I like it huge.


To add into the excitement, right after I got off the plane yesterday around 430, completely rushed into the city to put down my stuff and took off to one of my favorite ramen place in shin-okubo (新大久保) where their crab miso is second to none.  There are many miso ramen places in tokyo but the deep and ingrained crab miso places is scarce. The place is call Yusaku (優創) and it is around 10 minutes walk from Shin-okubo station.  It is hard to imagine a korean dominent part of town can also contain such an unique ramen local ramen shop!


Of course, with all miso ramen there has to be corn topping!!  once you take in the soup the crab yoke taste would fill your mouth and stay there for a long while! The soup is not a straight shot of broth but with the miso, vegitable, seafood ingredients.  One of the features is actually the noodle of this bowl, 


The noodle is flat noodle where the noodle shop makes everyday.  With the flat noodle, it would soak up the soup a lot faster and blend a lot quicker than the round ones.  You can actually see the effect if you leave the noodle too long in the soup!  

Amazingly this is the first time I took a picture with the chef!!  Such a nice guy! 


Also want to thank Ann and Lulu to wait for me for ramen.  A delay of United flight and flight experience is just another long crazy story that cant be finished with blogging. lol.
