Slurping is not only allowed at Chef Takashi Yagihashi's boisterous, casual noodle shop—it's encouraged. Bursting with umami, the ramen is almost a religious experience and can be customized with all manner of extra toppings, but it's worth adding some bao and sushi on the side, and saving room for the mochi, ice cream, and other creative desserts.
