"Men Kurai veers as far away from refined shoyu ramen as possible. Their abura soba is served without the soup that distinguishes most ramen. Instead the focus is on massive, hand-cut noodles, served in a garlicky sauce and mixed with oil. For an extra 100 yen, you can add on a pile of roasted garlic bulbs, in case it wasn’t garlicky enough already." - Brian MacDuckston
