Inoichi is a cozy ramen joint that became my suppertime ritual. For 7 consecutive nights, each and every night that I was in Kyoto, I ate at Inoichi. Here, ramen is a culinary craft made with precision. What makes Inoichi ramen so uniquely special is...that its dashi soup contains no animal fats; instead, Inoichi uses 100% seafood dashi extracted from fish flakes at low temperature. Just watching the cooks prepare the ramen dishes is the epitome of inspirational art in itself. I still think of Inoichi from last month and can't wait to eat ramen there again; also, their homemade sweet tofu dessert is sublime. Inoichi is one of my favorite restaurants, hands down!More
