The chef here trained at Tsuji Culinary Institute and cooked at Nobu before settling into a ramen shop in Ahwatukee, which is either a surprise or exactly what someone like that would do. The menu runs classic: tonkotsu, miso blended from Hokkaido pastes, rice bowls, takoyaki. The broth is unhurried and clear in its intentions, the kind of ramen that makes the fast-food versions feel a little embarrassed about themselves.

Takoyaki
“One is Takoyaki, brown-fried orbs rich and soft and cored with bits of chopped octopus – just like chef Yusuke Kuroda&rsquo”
Phoenix New Times, 2024 -
Miso ramen
“His rich miso unites a blend of miso pastes from Hokkaido and can hang with just about any other miso ramen in the Valley.”
