WHY IT'S A MESHI MAP PICK
Locals keep coming back. That is the real proof.
地元の人が、通い続ける。それが何よりの証明。
Run by a chef from Myoko, Niigata, this intimate counter shop just a three-minute walk from Akabane East Exit has carved its own path with a clear chicken-pork-seafood broth built on a bold foundation of fresh ginger.
新潟・妙高出身の店主が赤羽東口から徒歩3分の地に構える、鶏豚魚介の清湯スープに生姜を全面的に効かせた独自路線のラーメン店。
At 1,000 yen for a bowl of shoyu ramen, regulars are consistently surprised that a soup of this refinement is offered at such a price.
醤油ラーメン1,000円で、この完成度のスープが飲めることに驚く常連客が多い。
With only 11 counter seats, lines form at both lunch and dinner, and the kitchen often closes early once the broth runs out.
カウンター11席の小さな空間に昼夜問わず行列が生まれ、スープ切れで早仕舞いになる日も珍しくない。
A monthly limited-edition menu announced on social media reliably draws fans from across Tokyo and beyond.
月1回の限定メニューは毎回SNSで話題となり、遠方からのファンも引きつける。
