Slurp It Up: The Best Ramen Restaurants in the World

10. Mitsui – Asakusa, Tokyo

Another amazing Tokyo ramen-ya is Mitsui, a small, unassuming place that has managed to avoid the insane tourist traffic that has recently taken over Asakusa.

Mitsui specializes in Kitakata-style ramen, which is a clear, soy-based pork and chicken broth served with special hand-pulled noodles. These soft, handmade noodles are thicker and curlier than the average ramen noodle, which gives them a texture that’s so soft that they almost melt in your mouth. The broth at Mitsui is deliciously rich, which you can immediately see from the profusion of fat spread across the surface of the bowl.
