Tonkotsu Battersea

You're walking through Battersea Power Station's arches and suddenly the smell of pork bone broth hits you—that's your cue to head into Tonkotsu. This is proper ramen done well, the kind of place where they've clearly spent years perfecting their broths rather than just jumping on trends. The setting is industrial-cool without trying too hard, all exposed brick and stainless steel, which feels right for the neighbourhood. Order the tonkotsu ramen and watch them bring out a steaming bowl of rich, creamy broth that's been simmering for hours. It's the kind of meal that makes the trip to Nine Elms entirely worth it, especially on a cold London evening.
