Musashiya Ramen

A minimal but handsome dining room and friendly staff await at this Lakeview restaurant. The welcoming committee also includes two types of ramen: the extra thick tonkotsu and the rich, porky miso. Both are loaded up with pork chashu, spinach, corn, a soft-boiled egg and seaweed, but diners can boost any ingredient for an additional fee. Before you start slurping, pad your belly with an order of geso karaage, tender squid tentacles rendered golden-brown and delightfully crispy with help from the kitchen's deep fryer.
