Butanchu Sinchon 부탄츄 신촌점

Thick enough to recall Jiro-style ramen, the toko tonkotsu broth carries a strong hit of garlic. Four bases are offered (rich tonkotsu, lighter tonkotsu, soy, and salt), and noodle thickness plus bean sprouts, scallion, and garlic are set when ordering. With free extra noodles, portions run large. Gyoza, karaage, and fried rice with thick pieces of pork fill out a set. Plenty of seats keep turnover quick, though the lunch peak still means a 10 to 20 minute wait. Ask for less salt if the default tastes too strong.
