“Be prepared to queue up!”

The wait is shorter than Ichiran's; once seated you fill out a sheet to customize noodle thickness and broth richness. Roger recommends thin noodles with extra-rich, sesame-oil broth, the spicy Red King, or the black-octopus-sauce Black King for the adventurous, plus extra pork belly and egg for bigger appetites.
