🍜 So Good, It’s Like I’m Right There at Chuka Soba Sakurazaka 😋
A classic bowl of ramen with an unexpected twist. The broth is a perfect balance of katsuo (bonito) and pork, and the noodles are thick and chewy. The toppings are generous and flavorful, with a large slice of chashu (pork shoulder) and fresh scallions. Overall, a great bowl of ramen that’s sure to please everyone.
Review
Nostalgic and Inviting
Nestled on the slopes of Sakurazaka, this unassuming gem offers a classic ramen experience that transcends time. The aroma of roasted pork filled the air, inviting me inside where I savored each slurp of the rich, umami-packed broth. The noodles, cooked to al dente perfection, danced harmoniously with the tender pork and crisp greens. Overall, a truly satisfying and memorable meal.

Value-for-Money Comfort
At just 850 yen, the 中華ソバ is an incredible value. The generous portion left me full and satisfied, and the rich broth and juicy pork were top-notch. With each bite, I felt a sense of nostalgic comfort, reminded of the flavors I grew up with. A highly recommended spot for a hearty and affordable ramen fix!

Features
| Katsuobushi-infused Broth | The star of the show is the broth, which boasts a robust yet balanced flavor derived from a generous amount of dried bonito flakes (katsuobushi). The result is a symphony of umami, with a hint of smokiness that lingers on the palate. |
| Tender Pork Chashu | The ramen is adorned with thick slices of pork chashu, braised to melt-in-your-mouth perfection. The meat is incredibly tender and juicy, with a slightly sweet glaze that complements the savory broth beautifully. |
| Fresh and Crunchy Vegetables | Balancing out the richness of the broth and pork are fresh and crunchy vegetables, including crisp green onions and bamboo shoots. These add a vibrant and refreshing touch to each bite, enhancing the overall experience. |
