Penultimate meal

For our final dinner of the trip, Divya found a well-reviewed ramen place called Afuri Nakameguro, very close to the Meguro River, where we were already walking. We reached and had to wait for around 20 minutes before getting in. The place was pretty good. They featured different yuzu-based ramen, with multiple options to customise the broth, meat and the noodles. Divya ordered a Yuzu Shio ramen with chicken, while I ordered the spicier Yuzu Ratan ramen with both chicken and pork. We took our seats at the counter with the cooks cooking and serving right in front of all the guests. The food was delicious. For Divya, this beat all the other ramen meals we had had previously on the trip. I was ecstatic too because I hadn’t found spicy ramen this good before. Divya finished her bowl completely (while I couldn’t) and was proud of it. We left the place and walked a little in the surrounding Meguro area, which seemed like a popular Friday-evening spot for young people to hang around. Back at the hotel, we were too tired to finish packing, so we decided to get up earlier the next morning.Read more
