銀笹 (Ginzasa)

Ginzasa was on my list of places I wanted to try. I saw on TV that it opened last October and that the owner used to be a traditional Japanese cuisine chef. When I got there 10 minutes past their opening time (11:30AM), there were people already lined up.

Order: Shio Ramen (800 yen)
Fish and chicken broth with thin Ramen noodles. The two white balls you see are made from whitefish. The attention to the little details were amazing.
It was light, not oily but the flavor of the soup had a lot of depth.
This may be my favorite Ramen I've had so far in Tokyo. It's location is inconvenient, but if I am in the Ginza/Shinbashi area, it is definitely worth a trip back.
