    Best for

    Established in 1958, Youki is the historic foundation stone of traditional Hiroshima ramen. The shop serves a singular dish: tonkotsu-shoyu chuka soba brewed by simmering pork bones and aromatics into a smooth, light tan broth seasoned with local soy sauce. Bowls arrive lined with thin straight noodles, crunchy slender bean sprouts (moyashi), sliced pork, and chopped green onions.
