Expect a wait for this Tokyo favorite on most days. We once faced 20 minutes standing outside on a near-freezing day among the young, hip crowd. But it’s worth it. The giant bowl of Wagyu Texas BBQ Tantanmen, made with smoked A5 beef floating in a creamy broth over thick noodles, mixes barbecue and Japanese food for one of the most smoke-filled, savory, and creamy, ramen bowls you can find on this side of the world. Every single thing in this bowl is delicious, including the melty chashu and the seasoned ground pork hidden at the bottom.
