Afuri tops my list of top Ramen in Tokyo and what really makes their ramen special to me is their aburi char siew (pork belly). They are also fast becoming very popular from when I first visited them last spring.
Their standard ramen is Yuzu Shio Ramen, they are refreshing for many. I however, like mine traditionally done. Some ramen shops leave you feeling bloated and fatty after a bowl of noodle (all that pork oil…), but because the soup base at Afruri is less oily – they are a better alternative for supper(Harajuku branch opens till 3am).
Will I Return O-Meter : Yums. I prefer Afuri more than Ichiran Ramen (I can’t stand their long queues)
