HIDDEN Kyoto Ramen Shop

This Kyoto ramen shop looks more like an old Japanese home than a ramen shop. We're grabbing two big bowls of rich ramen at two secret spots in Kyoto!
This is the fifth episode in a BIG KYOTO RAMEN SERIES.

I just imagined you nodding off right after recording that first ramen review at the hotel 🤣Instant carbo nap.

[@5AMRamen]

When editing, I was quite surprised how out of it I sounded at the hotel 😅

[@jyeo5556]

Great reviews Frank! Peace out, but not too much haha

[@5AMRamen]

Lol, as always, thanks for watching!

[@fumeokid]

Did the soup have that gamey pork funk? Broth looked really thick...Motsu..Kowai!!

[@5AMRamen]

Not too funky, quite smooth! Motsu may grow on you 😅

[@martenlundin]

2nd bowl looked tasty (but with regular pork)…too bad I’m not doing Kyoto this time.🍜

[@5AMRamen]

There's always the next trip! It's getting really crowded down there too...

[@adamc1368]

Hi Frank! I have a question for you - I’m visiting Japan in a month and I’ve never tried ramen before because I get migraines from msg. I’ve noticed that I really only get them from things like fast food chicken and Chinese takeout. I eat things like sushi and soy sauce without much of an issue. Does much of the ramen made in Japan use artificial msg, or is it mostly naturally occurring? I feel like I only get headaches from the powder stuff. Thanks!!

[@binhnham2512]

I know some advertise that they don't use MSG or unnatural ingredients. I went to Menya Yoshi today in Taito City and it's run by hearing impaired. They advertise that they don't use MSG and they were very delicious! Even more delicious was Homemade Ramen Muginae in Shinagawa, Tokyo and I believe they also advertise no MSG or unnatural ingredients. Was there last week and they were awesome! I think most of your really good shops don't add MSG, tbh. I highly suggest Iruca as well. Has been my favorite this week of the 21 shops I went to.

[@adamc1368]

Thanks so much for the advice!! Will definitely check those out@@binhnham2512

[@5AMRamen]

Hello hello! Unfortunately in Japan ramen shops often use MSG, even the powdered variety. But some places (like Muginae, Gottsu, Shibasakitei, and Kissui Hananoren in Tokyo) will make it a point to only use chemical free seasoning. Hope this helps!

[@adamc1368]

Appreciate the reply! Yeah that's very helpful thank you@@5AMRamen
