Sakura Ramen Tee

桜ラーメン (sakura rāmen): "cherry blossom ramen."

Old-school Tokyo shōyu ramen comes with a slice of narutomaki, the white fish cake with a pink spiral running through it. The name comes from the Naruto whirlpools, which spin in the tidal strait between Shikoku and Awaji Island. Cooks roll the fish paste into a long log and slice it thin, so every round carries the same swirl, and it does far more for the look of a bowl than for the taste.

Noodles lift out of a red bowl on a pair of chopsticks, with a fat naruto swirl floating in the broth and cherry blossoms drifting around the rim. A soft pink sun glows behind it all, and a small red badge of the same bowl sits on the chest.

Whoever keeps a ranked list of ramen counters on their phone will wear it to every one of them. The red line art goes with denim, khaki or black, and the pre-shrunk cotton keeps its shape wash after wash. It heads up the noodle end of the street food collection.
