    Best for

    Founded in 1994, Urinbo brings traditional Hakata pork bone ramen to the quiet streets of Hanakawado six minutes from Asakusa Station. The shop boils pig trotters and pork heads into a creamy, milky broth without strong odors. Ultra-thin noodles are boiled quickly to diners' requested firmness, accompanied by wood ear mushrooms, thin-sliced chashu, and fresh scallions.
