Tokyo-Style Tonkotsu Under A Neon Glow On Allen Street
Tonkotsu, miso, and spicy bowls come fast across a counter that traces back to a Tokyo ramen master on Allen Street.
🍜 The Allen Street bowl
A neon sign hums over the counter at this Allen Street ramen-ya, where the kitchen ladles tonkotsu with roots in Tokyo. The tonkotsu comes cloudy and deep, layered with chashu, a soft egg, and a coil of springy noodles. The spicy bowl turns up the heat with a spoon of chili paste stirred into the pork broth, red and slow to fade. A vegetarian option swaps in charred zucchini and mushrooms for the meat. Seats fill quickly at the narrow counter, and the line moves as bowls are drained and stools open up.
