i find binder clips helpful for creating better blackout, and straps similarly useful as carabiners but slightly more flexible

PE hat - any decent alternatives? price is insane.

hi - any reasonable alts for the PE hat? i know tilley gets suggested, but it just doesn't do it for me. perhaps just getting a regular old military surplus booney will be better. i also heard that these go on sale, but it's not clear when, or if, they do

KITTE Tomita versus Tokyo Station Rokushina versus Menya Itto, versus sold-Fuunji, versus others? Where would you rank them?

unfortunately, i have still never been able to make the journey to tomita's HQ. and thus i've only known the KITTE version, which i've loved. the yuzu that they add to the bowl offers such a contrast and balance to the soup that really elevates KITTE tomita above most / all the tsukemen that i normally eat.

rokushina - too commercial menya itto - very good, maybe too salty and one-note fuunji - was amazing the first time, then each subsequent time was a bit cloying. years passed without visiting and now knowing that the ownership has changed, i'm not sure what to think. i could be interested in trying it this week.

is it funny that i like tomita's sister branch so much?
