“TabeTomo - ok, I rec this to everyone b/c it's my favorite. They do tonkotsu tsukemen, so you get a bowl of super rich pork soup and a separate bowl of noodles (I love their noodles) for dipping into your soup.”

“I would like to say TabeTomo is a solid contender, but there's one issue: The soup base is REALLY strong. If you get the normal Tonkotsu I think it's pretty standard, but the tsukemen has some additional shots of flavor (I thin kit includes some vinegar). The noodles sound like what he would like.”

replying to u/rubtoe: Love tabetomo but I can only get about 2-3 slurps in before I’m ready to be wheelbarrowed back to my apt — so rich! Minca is a couple blocks away and is my go-to (has a lighter broth).
“I really wanted to like TabeTomo but I felt that the tare in their broth was overpowering. I really loved the richness of their broth and I enjoyed the diluted broth/soup at the end of my meal.”

replying to u/fritefal: Okiboru – Okiboru made me like tsukemen. I don't know if Tabetomo has changed the recipe since, but when I tried their tsukemen, the broth was way too acidic. Another great tsukemen: Tonchin.
“The broth is probably one of the richest I've ever had for tonkotsu, normally it's not made so rich.”
