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。
This six-seat counter ramen shop made its mark on Katsushika in just two years since opening in March 2023, quickly earning coverage in ramen media and spreading through local word of mouth.
2023年3月のオープンからわずか2年で葛飾を代表するラーメン店に名乗りを上げた、カウンター6席だけの小さな一杯。
What sets it apart is the owner's singular approach: blending six to eight varieties of niboshi that change with the seasons, producing a depth and complexity no other shop replicates.
6〜8種類の煮干しを季節ごとにブレンドするスタイルは他に類を見ず、「ラーメンウォーカー」などにも取り上げられながら地元ラーメンファンの口コミで支持が広がってきた。
A former stand-up comedian turned ramen craftsman, the owner brings the same one-of-a-kind energy to the counter as to the bowl, and the lunch queue at those six seats is a reliable sight.
元芸人という異色の経歴を持つ店主が醸し出す唯一無二の空間で、昼時には6席を求めて行列が絶えない。
