Ramen restaurant • 1-chōme-5-41 Hiyoshihonchō, Kohoku Ward, Yokohama, Kanagawa 223-0062, Japan
Located just a 3-minute walk from Hiyoshi Station, you'll find Lasta nestled in the middle of a shopping street. This ramen shop offers a unique house-style ramen style for you to enjoy.
From the west exit of Hiyoshi Station, simply follow the central street that leads to the shopping street and you'll find it right away. It's a popular spot for students and also recommended for adults.
The wafting aroma of tonkotsu is enough to stimulate your appetite. The soup is based on house style ramen, combining the perfect balance of saltiness and soy sauce flavor. Despite its oily appearance, it surprisingly has a refreshing aftertaste.
The medium-thick noodles have an exquisite chewy texture and flavor. We recommend ordering them firm. The free rice that comes with it can be selected from small to large sizes, and is also generous in portion. The flavorful and tender chashu, spinach as an accent, sweet seasoned soft-boiled egg, and the rare all-purpose negi (green onions) are all popular toppings.
Details such as the way the nori (seaweed) is arranged and the serving of complimentary rice exude a sense of commitment to quality. On the other hand, improvement may be needed in making the toothpick and tissues more easily accessible. The appeal lies in being able to savor the taste of a long-established shop even for beginners of house-style ramen. The reasonable pricing is also a delightful point. Whether you're a ramen enthusiast or someone looking to challenge yourself with a slightly offbeat house-style ramen, this is a recommended establishment.
