| - The problem with all of the ramen shops opening in Las Vegas, is that all of them are so close to being the same exact thing. So much so, that the comparison between them all is hardly the ramen at all...because how do you really compare the same toppings, broth and appetizers?
Tonight Chloe said, "I don't even know which ramen shop is your favorite, mom." She's right. How do you choose? Nothing stands out. Maybe Monta because it was my first love? But it's definitely not because the flavor or noodles are different than the rest...
Ramen Hashi did the opposite of all of the new ramen shops in Vegas, and simplified the menu. 3 broth choices with all of the same toppings and the choice to add "extra" of what it already comes with. I didn't expect anything different than what these other places offer in terms of flavor, but I was wrong.
I ordered the chicken broth with black garlic oil and an extra egg. The broth was light, flavorful, and the black garlic oil added a smokey flavor to it. It tastes homemade. Not too salty, nowhere near too bland.
The owner stopped by while we were eating and told us about how much time it takes to make all of the ingredients, all homemade recipes from scratch. I love it. I finally have a favorite ramen shop! I'm sure this place will soon have a 30 minute wait, but it's well-deserved.
