This is yet another “stamina-type” (garlic) tonkotsu ramen. See the pink packet on the left? That’s a full packet of minced raw garlic. Yum! The garlic and soup is actually mild, and not too garlicky, but flavorful. It’s quite good. The noodles are a bit on the doughy and hard side, but also flavorful. There’s also a bit of green onion flakes and a few scattered pieces of shinachiku. It’s well balanced overall and gets an 8.

I’m glad to hear their Noodles were only slightly overcooked when you...
Just found this site, it’s awesome.
One thing: “stamina-type” doesn’t mean infused with garlic — it just refers to a combination of ingredients that’s meant to give you, well, stamina. Many stamina dishes contain garlic because it’s thought to aid in the production of said stamina, but it’s not a prerequisite — as an example, this “stamina soup” contains no garlic at all: http://recipe.gourmet.yahoo.co.jp/B001458/
1Thanks for the kind words, and yep, you’re right. I stand corrected. I always thought that “stamina” was the marketing way of saying “filled with so much garlic that your wife/girlfriend/significant other will hate you for the rest of the night!”
