MICHELIN STARRED RAMEN in Japan

Tsuta is one of Tokyo's most revered ramen shops. After gaining much acclaim locally for their shoyu and shio soups, they were awarded a Michelin Star, the first ramen shop in the world to do so.
Their popularity means that there is a special ticketing system in place. Come in the morning, get a ticket, and return during your ticket's time. Despite having to jump through these hoops, Tsuta is worth it.

Dude looks like Weird Al Yankovic

[@ramenadventure]

I haven't heard that in years! When I had longer hair I was mistaken for him all the time.

[@renorzeta]

lol.

[@laurentkina6168]

God when he broke the egg and the yellow part just flows out, oh god damn.

[@bigdeal4147]

it was orgasmic!

[@DaemonHall]

I can't stand runny eggs lol.

[@laurentkina6168]

***** really ? I mean hard boiled is great but, runny eggs ? How could you not like it :(

[@007nikster2]

You mean the yolk?

[@bigdeal4147]

007nikster2 yes, i am! thanks for noticing

[@Christian-ns4lk]

You may be the only person left who believes in you, but it's enough. It takes just one star to pierce a universe of darkness. Never give up.” So beautiful and nearly as good as that ramen.

[@udcaps]

yup thx

[@bcgrote]

What a beautiful bowl! It's nice that ramen is being recognized for the great cuisine that it is. As a base for other ingredients, or a comforting warm bowl of simply noodles and broth, ramen is an ultimate food!

[@AnteroX1234]

Been waiting for a Tsuta ramen video for a long time now. 10/10 as expected.

[@lemd7904]

I liked how you did this video and reviewed the video. Good depth to it. I really appreciated it. Thanks!

[@JungleScene]

first time seeing this channel.... I like it!

[@bmw320e36]

Dude! You really look like the main character from "cloudy with a chance of meatballs". Everytime we(me and my daughter) watch your vid, we are waiting for a giant meatball to fall from the sky. Lmao! Anyways, great vids and ramen reviews.

[@themysterytraveler6536]

To me, the first thing I tasted was fish stock which gradually took a back seat to the chicken stock, shoyu and red wine. Still thinking about it months later. Also, get the little bowl of pork and rice. Best $2.50 you will spend.

[@Glenevere]

That looked delicious. A must try when I'm there.

[@EdwardAMG]

Thanks to KZbin recommendation, you have a new sub !!! ALL HAIL RAMEN!!!

[@mop09drg]

Wow, that's old-fashioned-Tokyo-style-simple-shoyu-ramen ! Nowadays, thick-heavy-tonkotsu-ramen is in a great prosperity. But.....THIS IS THE RAMEN I believe !

[@Razoyo]

man bravo for ur channel, is so good

[@Meekle58]

I'll have to head there on my next trip in January, looks amazing

[@jbrice370]

[@rashoietolan3047]

I respect the creative hustle keep that entrepreneur spirit strong

[@stvsueoka1]

[@KassidyHkdolly]

menma 😂😂 reminds me of an episode in naruto😄😄😄

[@VoluptuousBear]

If you ever have a chance to come to Texas, go to Houston, and go to tigers den. It's amazing. They open at 5 pm due to prepping and making all their own food. It's worth the wait.

[@lokicoyote1516]

I love tbe touch of the Michelin man in the thumb nail😁

[@gameswittaya2902]

Rad RAMEN BRO. Love the vids

[@thekingofkings4674]

That broth looks like liquid gold

[@AlqGo]

Your channel should get 3 Michelin Stars!

[@vetmed2777]

Just subscribed to your channel, this is genious. By the way if you could pick someplace to get the most traditional kind of "home-y" ramen in tokyo, where would it be?

[@nowgaku]

一回は食べてみたいですね。

[@blackswordsmanguts]

I've been there! Best shoyu I ever had!

[@ThaiGoalie]

Looks AMAZING. Makes me crave real ramen so bad. Well I guess I'll cook some top ramen here at home lol. Maybe add some bacon and an egg and call it ghetto tonkotsu

[@nowgaku]

I respect you so much.

[@jorgef9912]

Thank you for not always smiling like a pill person .

[@mugensamurai]

You know a ramen is good when it takes two guys to form it.

[@daviddimalanta259]

I'll shoyu how to eat ramen? (geddit? haha)

[@Justaguywithglassesok]

-________-

[@daviddimalanta259]

"I'll shoyu (show you) how to eat ramen." :v Shoyu is a soy sauce in Japan. I tried this pun. hehe... :-D

[@ramenadventure]

shhhhhhhhh . . . eeeee oh. (shio).

[@GokuLondon]

Really well shot. Loving the music, angles and shots at the start. What lens do you use? Just inspired me.

[@ramenadventure]

A lot of this was with a Canon DSLR and an 18-135 lens

[@KennLau]

Tsuta here I come.

[@erikleonardi6642]

wow.. how many languages you have mastered ? that's insane ! :D

[@misha3479]

My dad is a representative for Michelin, sometime If he does go to japan I should defiantly come and check out this ramen shop!

[@Hoffyman]

I wish that you came out with videos more often these days

[@ramenadventure]

Thanks. I'm going to try. It's a lot of work!

[@wjun0131]

Used to go there from time to time with my parents when I was a kid, wasn't my fav

[@ludolfebner3189]

he ate the whole thing!!!!

[@kaihsiung5966]

I went to the one in HK which was really disappointing but looking at how delicious that char siu looks maybe you just have to go to Japan.

[@globetravellers1549]

So good, we had quite few good ones in tokyo, but this seems far above those

[@miked3168]

When this video first started, i was expecting him to break out into a Beastie Boys song. :) Kinda looks like Mike D from the Beastie Boys. Whatcha Whatcha Whatcha Want? Ramen

[@ramenadventure]

Mmmmmm, slurp! (drop)

[@geerain1678]

WHAT?! HE ATE THAT MEAT PIECE IN JUST ONE BITE..

[@KhmaiBodian559]

i know right. i was like wtf dude! you dont just simply eat the whole thing!

[@coldchipsspoils]

It's also not italian seasonings it's Chinese herbs and spices! Get it right!

[@woopidoo]

Actually, that's what you usually do :) Cheers from Tokyo!

[@meat_loves_wasabi]

We got 3 tsuta outlets here In Singapore ... Really good

[@ramenadventure]

Three now? Wow!

[@quadmas]

So hungry right now...

[@SlicedMango17]

i was here last week and i saw your picture in their washroom! haha The ramen was great, but personally i enjoyed Nakiryu tantanmen better

[@ramenadventure]

Haha, really? I never used their bathroom, so I didn't know!

[@user-br9db6kh6e]

¡¡¡¡¡Me encanta el Ramen !!!!! :P estos videos me dan mucha hambre >.

[@robertapgar7413]

I've been it was pretty epic.

[@jellowpy9243]

I wanna order two servings and i havent even started eating yet!! Damn

[@goshadowkenny]

I visited Tsuta when I was in Tokyo last February, and was reserved for a 1pm meal. Killing time at a nearby Starbucks, struck up a conversation with an older man (late 60's / early 70's), local to Tokyo. I told him about my plans to eat at Tsuta. HIM: There's a lot of good ramen in Tokyo - but I haven't heard of Tsuta, so it can't be very good. ME: It has to be, because it has a Michelin Star. HIM: What's a Michelin Star? ME: It's a French based international award recognizing culinary excellence. HIM: So you're letting the French tell you what good ramen is? Well played, old man. Well played.

[@ramenadventure]

This is amazing.

[@unowen7591]

Personally I think basement and hole-in-the-wall restaurants are so much better than Michelin or high end restaurants. Some of the underground not-so-known places have the best food you'll ever eat.

[@ramenadventure]

Agreed. Actually, Tsuta is a total hole-in-the-wall. If it wasn't for the hype, no one would go near that block.

[@marqueslewis2640]

Benedict Cumberbatch loves ramen. -IGN Confirmed

[@Nikminnit]

At the time of the video it was the cheapest but now the cheapest Michelin meal is in Singapore at a street food stall. For chicken with noodles it costs $1.50 USD. Great video though!

[@satyajh]

The emperors new clothes LOL..

[@hkjon]

can't believe he ate that chashu in one bite... D:

[@shadow7733]

Looks good soup

[@ramenadventure]

It’s great stuff

[@user-fy8rw4vf5r]

見ていてお腹空く(*´ω｀*)楽しい動画ありがとうございます(＾ω＾)TVで知ったのですが亀戸に鰻ラーメンなるものがあるらしいです！美味しいかわからないけど是非！ｗ

[@bigbangsongs3702]

Try AORI RAMEN, it's really, really good

[@tina7151]

I wish you gave a move detailed description of what it taste like

[@ChuukeseStink]

Um. You want him to tell you that it taste like Shoyu Ramen? He explained that the broth is made with different stocks and noodles are made with different grains. There is no way you can explain it further without trying it yourself. He said it also has an italian flavour with Herbs, Truffle Oil. etc.

[@chrism6904]

I want to go to Japan soooo bad!

[@bryanmartinez6600]

SAME I WANT TO VISIT FOR 5 DAYS TO 7 FOR FOOD ANIME AND TO TOUR AROUND AND SEE...not a weeaboo -_- I just like there things but they aren't as tech loaded as in the US where everyone has a smartphone all places have wifi but there pretty advanced they just aren't addicted like us

[@Chewibub]

You sound like a kid whose only experience of japan is youtube and amime. I've lived for a few months as an exchange student, and it isn't as magical as it seems. All the kids there are addicted to anime and manga, the majority go home straight after school unless they have tutoring. Every adult male is working close to 24/7, a culture that promotes unpaid overtime and drinking long after work is done. Girls aren't as hot. Students and adults alike are extremely stressed. It is incredibly tough to get into uni, and failing means being jobless, as well, due to Japan's failing economy, most japanese people are overqualified and underpaid. Suicide rates are extremely high, highest in the world in fact. It was weird, almost every week some kid hung themselves or went missing, it was depressing.

[@rad2400]

pretty much just defined what a weeabo is.

[@raymondzhang177]

aren't most city on earth about the same as in Japan? Unless you're kind of have enough money and fortune to get away from stress.

[@thehachinaka]

Tangy Man if I'm not wrong , sleeping at work in japan means you've worked a lot and ppl respect you for it

[@Pyro4414]

Is there an English version of your book? I would love to get a copy.

[@ramenadventure]

It's bilingual. www.ramenadventures.com/p/ramen-guide-book.html

[@ohredhk]

Perfect egg!

[@rabbit9769]

You're a perfect egg.

[@anthony_lev]

Love Tsuta. I went there on my first Japan trip in Jan 2015, as I saw it on your website. And then went back again just 6 weeks ago and ordered the works for 1,250 yen with the 4 slices of Chashu... Noticeably busier cause of that star! Simply a brilliant bowl of food and it even looks like a work of art.

[@Azaxx]

anyone have an idea on how that red broth was made? only clue I got from the video was red wine being integrated into it

[@ramenloveshawk]

Thanks for sharing! How early did you go to get a ticket?

[@ramenadventure]

+hawk 7am is best. Weekends, you should go at 6:30am.

[@anthony_lev]

+hawk I went on a Sunday, got there at 7.45am and got the 1pm timeslot. But better to be safe than sorry!

[@melonsoda123]

And there's a love hotel right in front of the ramen shop, lol.

[@HallOfFantasy]

I tried a ramen shop called Bigiya (びぎ屋 located in Meguro-ku, Tokyo) which is listed in the online Michelin Guide. Just a small shop, the taste was fine and I paid less than ¥1,000 for a bowl of the stuff. I wish I made a video about it.

[@ramenadventure]

Bigiya is great. www.ramenadventures.com/2010/02/bigiya-in-meguro.html

[@redwanhasan1721]

Bought a super glue today and it's name is Michelin too! Co-incidence?

[@kyshinagawa1355]

Hey Brian, trying to buy your book but its only on Amazon JP - is it sold on any other amazon domain ? Thanks Kevin

[@ramenadventure]

+Kevin Hughes Get it direct from my site, www.ramenadventures.com

[@RyonMugen]

is this the same Michelin as in the tire company? cause it was on the glass thing he picked up at 3:00 ?

[@zennologyofeverything7265]

Ryon Persaud just look up the backstory of Michelin...weird shit

[@RyonMugen]

ZENNology of Everything but is it the same tire man?

[@zennologyofeverything7265]

Ryon Persaud yes

[@amtra1778]

I prefer Goodyear stars

[@funkymarb]

I was always curious as to why a tire company messes with the culinary world

[@gxmanas2758]

holy ramen

[@ichirukuro9803]

Slurping is one of the right ways to eat ramen,just slurps it till end of the noodles parts u eat then drink up the soup after it. Do not bite it or cut it.

[@MalaysiaBarista]

Not to be rude but, but it would be great to describe the food rather than saying "really-really" good then full stop. Example of how to describe it: from texture, taste, smell etc. Example for texture is the ramen springy? If yes springy like.. say Italian Pasta? Spongy like squid? Hows the salt level? Does the Ramen have a hint of herb or spice? Anyone else agree with me, please put a thumbs up on this comment.

[@rogerbrydon1661]

Stephen Yong . Malaysia Barista how about you stop watching and make your own videos.

[@MalaysiaBarista]

I love food, I would love to be able to understand how it taste like rather than just "its really good". Thats what i ask the poster to describe so i can better understand

[@carlzhang9734]

He's just giving positive feedback...

[@juanlita3650]

Wow...

[@MalaysiaBarista]

This post of mine isn't meant to be an insult. I like this guy, that's why I posted a tip , in hopes that he will use it for his future videos. I wont be who or where I am if it wasn't for tips from various people around.

[@jmiquelmb]

Not the cheapest michelin restaurant anymore. There's a chaper one on Singapore now for like 3 USD a meal or something

[@spartan10010]

[@jmiquelmb]

spartan10010 Just search: michelin star singapore hawker, and you'll find plenty of articles

[@asadasg]

Yep. Soy sauce chicken noodles store, 2 Singapore dollars for a plate.

[@rad2400]

The chicken rice store right? Have you tried it?

[@asadasg]

Nope, queue got longer ever since they won the Michelin star and it's about an hour to the place from my house. So I have always been turned off from visiting it, next time maybe haha

[@UVtentoutyu]
