Tonkotsu ramen with bubbles is rare in Japan, so I first doubted if these bubbles were meant be there&#8230;but it was. Tonkotsu soup in Japan is usually thik and oily (and sometimes bit smelly because of pork), but Kanada-Ya&#8217;s soup is light but has deep taste. I wonder how Mr. Kanada has found this great balance!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-a-little.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/IMG_9903-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Tonkotsu Ramen\u3000Kanada-ya\" width=\"697\" height=\"523\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-1807\" \/>Tonkotsu 10.50 GBP<\/p>\n<p>You can choose the hardness of noodles, which is typical custom in ramen restaurants in Japan.<br \/>\nChashu (pork topping) is very tender. Wood ear fungus (you may not have eaten or seen before, but it is very common topping for tonkontsu ramen in Japan) matches well with Kanada-Ya&#8217;s soup. Seaweed and spring onion are also common toppings in Japan and matches well.<br \/>\nNoodle, soup, toppings&#8230; everything is well-balanced and tastes perfect!<\/p>\n<p>You can also choose to have extra toppings. I recommend to order hanjuku egg, which is soft-boiled burford brown egg cured in chashu soup.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Google Adsense --><br \/>\n<script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6390939273367918\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"5994381144\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<p>On the table, there are several free toppings that you can use to change taste as you eat ramen.
