Urashima

"Urashima" in Kinokawa City, Wakayama Prefecture, is a long-established Wakayama ramen shop listed in the Ramen Hyakumeiten and the Ramen Walker Grand Prix Hall of Fame. Despite its short operating hours, it's always bustling, drawing crowds with its rich tonkotsu shoyu soup. The soup is characterized by a strong tonkotsu umami that clings to the tongue and a distinct soy sauce flavor; though it appears rich, it leaves a surprisingly refreshing aftertaste. The thin, straight noodles, made by Miyamoto Seimen, pair perfectly with the soup. It's a renowned Wakayama representative, offering an authentic bowl at an affordable price.
