Setagaya's Shio Ramen
(Jared puts spicy anything on everything)
VS.
RAI RAI KEN's Shio Ramen!
This is a curry ramen.
Only 14 stools.
Okay. So here's the results. Setagaya's ramen is lackluster. It is subtle, so if you like a delicate broth and thin chewy noodles, then maybe this is for you. The pork was tough and bland but the soft cooked egg was killer. It is nice to sit against the window and stare at the Village sidewalk scene.
Rai Rai Ken, besides being much more fun to say, I enjoyed their Ramen more. The broth is rich and deep and the noodles are meatier. Overall much better, I think. The curry ramen was very good as well and though it is cramped, it's cozy.
The winner? MOMOFUKU! HAHA (But these places are much cheaper)

hi there! i love your blog, but i wish you would update sooner. i'm dying to know what you've been eating!
p.s. as another ramen fanatic, though setagaya is good, it is sometimes over-sodiumed - my personal favorite is Sapporo on West 49th. try it!
