Goruya

As part of my trip to Tokyo, I made a stop in Yokohama. And what would a stop in Yokohama be without a meal at a Yokohama-style Iekei ramen restaurant? It was late and I wanted to get some sleep so I picked a shop near where I was staying: Goruya. As is standard at an Iekei place, I got the shoyu tonkotsu.

東京に行って、横浜にも寄りました。せっかく横浜に行ったので、絶対家系ラーメンを食べなあかんと思っていました。ちょっと遅かったので、ホテルの近くの店を探しました。「ゴル家」に入って、醤油とんこつにしました。

The Bowl
It had been a while since I had the oily Yokohama-style ramen, and it was about as I remembered: oily and powerful, strong-tasting but also coma-inducing. The noodles were thick and firm, and the salt-doused nori and spinach were pretty good. The chashu on its own was representative of the bowl as whole: standard and solid.

家系ラーメンがかなり久しぶりでした。覚えていた通りこってりで油濃かったですけど、ちょっと胃もたれやすいです。麺が固い太麺で、ノリもほうれん草がスープと合いました。チャーシューがラーメンと同様にスタンダードで美味しかったです。

Would I Go Again?
Next time I'm in Yokohama I'll try a new place.

今度横浜に行くときに新しい店に行っていみたいです。

Should You Go?
It's a solid joint if it's right around where you are.

あの場所にいて食べたければ行ってもいいです。
