Matador Ramen (牛骨らぁ麺 マタドール)
Beef-based Matador Ramen near Kitasenju Station in Tokyo, Japan
I have always been a fan of the most common types of ramen (pork-based or tonkotsu or 豚骨), miso (味噌ラーメン), shio (salt or 塩ラーメン), and shoyu (soy sauce or 醤油ラーメン). However, it turns out that my favorite kind of ramen is beef based or at least the Matador version of beef-based ramen. I’m pretty sure this bowl was the most delicious I have ever had from beginning to end.
Overheard from the mouth of the owner to a customer as I was eating this bowl is that Matador will soon be opening another store in Takadanobaba! Those of you going to Waseda University will be able to eat this on a nearly daily basis if you so choose. Count yourself lucky and expect a long line!

Torii gate tunnel

You don’t have to go to Kyoto to see a tunnel of torii gates. They are quite common at inari shrines like this one in Fukuoka.
Goodbye Korea

By the time this posts I should be in the air on my way back to the USA. I took over 5,000 photos while in Korea, most of which I haven’t even looked at yet, and only about 60 have been posted here so far. I’ll return to my more regular photos from Japan tomorrow, but maybe I’ll do a Korean Kayobi (Korean Tuesday) on the blog for the rest of the year or so with a photo from Korea every Tuesday.
