024 Tokyo Ramen Walker 2022 Review w/ Ramen Adventures and 5AM Ramen

Ramen Hunter

Joined by the Frank from 5AM and Brian of Ramen Adventures fame to discuss the Ramen Walker 2022 Tokyo guide. Brian is an annual contributor to the guide, so his input is invaluable.
First we get into recent slurps (1:34). We discuss an update to the Tokyo Ramen Street in Tokyo Station (9:24). We also touch upon the growing trend of frozen ramen (12:02). I ask the guys their thoughts on the cancellation of the Dai Tsukemen Rahaku Event (17:21).
Brian's kicks off the Ramen Walker 2022 discussion (23:40). We get into the new shops featured (28:00). Later on we get into the various rankings (38:12) such as the Hall of Fame, New Shops, and General Rankings. Learn who made the Ramen Walker lists and feel free to agree or disagree with their choices.
The guys explain other parts of the guide (57:32) including the use of pop idols to highlight different ramen topics. We finish up by discussing how we use the information in the guide to brush up on our shop knowledge and get around town.
