Picked this shop frequented and recommended by locals and out of town visitors alike among the hundreds of those serving this signature dish of Hakata. Established in Showa 53 (1978), Motsu-kou certainly has a homely and cosy feel to it and seemingly quite some family members are still pretty involved in its running. Quality and generous portion of motsu being served, with the signature gyoza wrapper on top, it certainly beats the usual suspects which merely put on a good show with heaps of vegis but lack of substance. The resulting soup is also more balanced and surprisingly not too oily and perfect for the noodles/rice finale.
