Restaurant Overview
Features and Specialties
- The Peak of Homemade Noodles Shining in a Quiet Kanazawa Residential Area : “Noboru” in Tamaboko, Kanazawa City. A talented shop where popularity spread via word-of-mouth despite having no flashy signs; befitting its name (meaning “to ascend”), a sincere attitude toward reaching heights is palpable from every bowl.
- Beautiful Transparency and Deep Umami in “Kyo-shio (Kyoto Salt) & Shoyu” : Bowls featuring chicken-based clear soup combined with selected salt or soy-sauce tares. Contrary to their transparent beauty, mouthfuls reveal multi-layered stock umami in a gentle yet sharp completion that makes you want to drink it to the last drop.
- “Gem-like Homemade Noodles” Blossoming with Wheat Aroma : Homemade noodles, carefully kneaded every morning, take center stage. These noodles, having reached a height as ramen for enjoying the noodles themselves, combine a supple throat-feel with certain resilience, pursued for their compatibility with the soup.
