| - For those that find Monta salty and crave for the chewier noodles and miso flavors of Sora, Misoya might be your happy medium. The place is stark, white, yellow and clean. I wish they had painted the walls a different color to give the place a little more warmth. The service is very friendly, but make sure you are very clear about your orders or you will get lost in translation. We asked for a to-go box for the rice and got a rice bowl meal instead.
We ordered the chasu Shiro and chasu Kome ramen. I read on a review here that the Shiro broth had sweeter flavors and hubby liked that. The Kome broth is less rich than Monta and Sora, I missed the oilier broth that chills in the refrigerator into a gelatinous form (not this one, perhaps there is more miso than bones as base). Also, there are healthier topping options here. On the Shiro bowl there was corn, tofu, potato, salad greens. On the Kome were corn, bean sprouts, cabbage, salad greens. Personally, I didn't really care for the greens (but they made the bowl look pretty). The ground beef that came with both bowls were very tasty, I actually enjoyed it a lot more than their chasu.... Which was a shame because their chasu cuts were exceptional - thick, meaty with only a sliver of fat and grilled, so it had a nice smoky favor. Problem is it was bland. It was, huhu. I wish they would marinate this more and it would be the bomb.
The gyoza was standard, nothing memorable. We also ordered the Japanese style chicken karaage which was served with sauced grated radish and green onions. This unfortunately was a miss for us. It was very bland and the toppings made the chicken soggy. We never leave karaage on our plates and we could not finish this one. Sniff. Thank goodness a delightful free surprise came in the end of our meal - yuzu sorbet! YUM. This is not as sour as most sorbets I've tried and it was a perfect ending to a heavy ramen meal. If we weren't so full we would've ordered more. I wanted a whole shake of this!
All in all, we left Misoya quite happy with the ramen we had. We just asked for spicy miso paste and slathered some on our chasu and all was good. Would we go back? Their yuzu sorbet will be haunting me for a few more days, but I think I'll revert back to Monta for my ramen fix. If you find Monta too salty and oily, then you will most likely be camping happily here at Misoyasplease.
