    Best for

    Ginza Ramen Shiraishi occupies an intimate space in Ginza 8-Chome near the border with Shimbashi. Founded by a Kagoshima native, the shop brews a clear shoyu broth from Kagoshima Kurobuta pork bones and chicken bones without oiliness or pork funk. The broth is light, savory, and clean, paired with thin firm noodles and thick slices of sweet-simmered Kurobuta pork belly chashu that melt on the tongue.
