After realizing Ramen Yamadaya was a chain, I wanted to try another branch!

 

Though I went right when it opened, it was pretty empty by the time I was done eating. Different than the SF branch.

 

Also tried different food than the unknown SF ramens.

 

Since discovering tsukemen style ramen in Japan, I wanted to see if any local places could do it well.

 

Noodle texture was great! Nice and chewy.

 

Unfortunately, the broth was cold. You can see it already has a film on it by the time it arrived at my table.

 

I don’t plan on going back to the San Jose branch, but now I’m curious to try the tsukemen ramen in the SF branch.
