Miso ramen with grated ginger
The story behind the bowl
Masahiko Oku trained in the Sumire lineage, then opened Saimi with a more balanced interpretation. Wok-charred miso, vegetables and ginger create warmth without letting fat dominate.
Before you go: Arrive before opening and protect time for the queue; this is a destination, not a quick backup.
