Eating out Amsterdam: Sapporo Ramen Sora

Finding good/decent Ramen is relatively easy regardless of where you are. Finding exceptional Ramen is another story,  and this inconspicuous little joint, my friends, has one exceptional Ramen.

A Japanese chef trained in the French culinary arts who decided to come to Amsterdam and set up shop to show the people here what real Ramen is all about sounds like a good story right?

But this joint does not live of stories, the food is just outstanding, the broth is rich and complex, a great balance, it does not need anything else inside, trust me. The noodles are beautifully cooked and the pork is flavorful and soft. Their Takoyaki is pretty delicious and they have Asahi beer on draft. What else do you need?

The shop is tiny, so you should either be lucky or gonna have to be patient, but this just makes things much more cozy. The presence of Japanese people should tell you a little about the authenticity of the joint, and once you are done with your Ramen you will agree with me. So just forget about dinner tomorrow and get your butts to Sapporo Ramen Sora, you will not be disappointed.
