    Menya Tai Gaba occupies the second floor of Grand Arc Terrace directly outside Hiroshima Station Shinkansen exit. The restaurant boils pork bones into two signature broths: Shirouma, a light silky Hakata-style tonkotsu, and Akauma, a richer bowl crowned with spicy miso and fragrant garlic oil. Thin noodles can be refilled via kaedama.
