Running off the grungy alleyway, was a dark corridor, with a very uninviting Ramen shop. No pictures of the food, ticket machine, cash only, no English. It took me 30 seconds to figure out how to open the door. I had read reviews on google maps and the pics of the food there looked great, so I showed the guy a picture on my phone and he showed me which button to press on the ticket machine, and it was possibly the best ramen ever. We never exchanged a word. Anyway... blow torched pork, a full egg, huge bamboo shoots, and thicker very square shaped noodles. Excellent. Tomorrow is a hiking day, the trains here are CASH only, so I will need to leave enough time to figure that out and make sure I carry change and notes that are not too new for the ticket machine to accept.
