The tonkotsu ramen earns relentless praise for its impossibly rich, velvety broth and perfectly chewy noodles. Reviewers describe the overall vibe as a humble, soul-warming bowl that captures the authentic spirit of Nagasaki’s portside comfort food.
“The broth is really good, not too spicy even though I added extra chili. The noodles are thin and I asked for them al dente — they're perfect. The egg yolk is so red, you never see that in Italy. The meat is tender. Honestly, a great bowl of ramen.”

A random ramen shop we found in a hurry near Nagasaki port, with a ticket machine only in Japanese, but the ramen was excellent and the rice bowl with deformed eggs was a fun surprise.

Ciotola di Riso con Uova Deformi
This is a rice bowl made with deformed eggs that come out when you prepare boiled eggs. It costs only 200 yen — about €1.20. I'd eat 17 of them. You have to smash the egg into the rice, it's amazing.
