Mala ramen (foreground) and “Taiwan ramen” at Hirano Ramen in Kobe. The mala has nice heat, good flavor. Their Taiwan ramen is kinda like the mala without the ma. Second time there, their tantamnen is good too. Wish it was chashu and not ground pork. No worries, there’s a good butcher on the same shotengai and we got some of their tasty (cooked) chashu to take home for dinner. Japan has so many of these solid, local neighborhood kinda places.
