The very best bites included all the other textures, too: a bit of the beautifully soft-boiled egg, crunch from scallions and garlic chips, and chew from the bamboo shoots and the egg noodles themselves. The garlicky broth was luxurious enough to slurp on its own, a testament to the care that Wasabi&#8217;s chefs put into a complicated cooking process that takes 45 hours total. Wasabi also offers sushi and Japanese small plates, but when the ramen is this exceptional, it&#8217;s tough to order anything else.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The details:<\/strong> <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wasabichicago.com\/\" title=\"Wasabi\">Wasabi<\/a>, 2115 N.
