    Best for

    Rated the number one ramen shop in Aichi Prefecture on Tabelog, Raamen Ajisai draws pilgrims from across Japan for its multi-shoyu chicken chintan. The broth boils Nagoya Cochin, Kuro Satsuma-jidori chicken, and dried seafood, finished with unpasteurized soy sauce and fragrant chicken oil. In-house extruded flat noodles glide like silk.
