Seating is limited here to fourteen cheery-red stools pulled up to a wooden bar, behind which a company of cooks paces to and fro ladling out bowls of the house specialty: ramen. The shio and shoyu ramen are excellent, but the curry ramen is not to be missed. It is deeply fragrant—smelling of roasted apples—and you may find yourself forgoing the springy crimped noodles to drain the bowl of every drop. The house gyoza, delicate pockets of minced pork, ginger and scallions enclosed in fried, feather-light dough, vanish too quickly—unless you order seconds. The fried rice, with tender shreds of roasted pork, is simple and delicious.
