Genki Ramen

Japanese ramen specialist on Sunset Boulevard, built around a tasting menu of broths rather than a broad Japanese menu.

Ramen is judged on its broth above all, which is simmered for hours and is the reason a dedicated ramen shop is a different proposition from a sushi restaurant that also serves noodles.

Background

A ramen shop is defined by its broth, and the main styles are distinguished by it: tonkotsu simmered from pork bones until it turns opaque, shio seasoned with salt, shoyu with soy, and miso with fermented bean paste. Building the menu as a tasting flight across broths rather than as a broad Japanese list is a specialist's decision. Good broth takes many hours and cannot be made to order, which is why dedicated ramen kitchens are rare in small markets.
