Back Bay
Soup Order
Tokusen Toroniku Shio Ramen, all the fatty pork like it’s leg day for my arteries
Cuisine
Japanese
Broth Style
Tonkotsu shio, long-simmered pork bones, milky and dense
Price Range
$$$
Best Time
Mid-afternoon cold snap, post–Newbury Street errand sprint
Crowd Level
Line at prime time, manageable off-peak
My take
This is the bowl I picture when I say ‘ramen’ out loud. Broth that coats the spoon, noodles with bounce, chashu that gives up like a bad zone defense.
