Chukyo Maze Soba
This regional ramen comes from Nagoya, Japan’s FOURTH largest city. Also referred to as “Chukyo”, Nagoya is home to quite a bit of spicy ramen. This particular spicy ramen is referred to as “Taiwan Maze Soba”. This soupless ramen actually has nothing to do with Taiwan.
It boasts strong flavors - there’s the tangy soy sauce base but additional flavors from fish and chili oil. There’s also creaminess coming from a runny egg sauce (its own packet). This is just like what you’ll get in Nagoya. Thick noodles are a must - they work wonderfully well with everything.
