Tsukesoba Ishii
A tsukemen and ramen specialty restaurant opened in September 2022 in front of Kokufudai Station by chef Ishii, who trained at the legendary Chiba tsukemen shop 'Shina Soba-ya Mengibo Shofu.' Only 6 counter seats. In its very first year, it won 1st place in the new restaurant tsukemen division of TRY Tokyo Ramen of the Year 2023-2024, shocking the ramen world. Tabelog 3.77-3.84, 352 reviews; Yahoo! Maps 3.97 (as of 2024). Authentic animal-and-seafood-based broth with hand-made medium-thick noodles. Sells out before 2 PM on busy days. 1-min walk from Kokufudai Station. Open Mon-Sat 11:00-16:00 (until sold out).
"TRY New Restaurant Tsukemen #1 in its first year of operation. This impact changed the history of Ichikawa ramen." "The depth of the broth and the texture of the noodles are in perfect balance." "Only 6 seats, no reservations. Still worth lining up for." "A legitimate heir to Chiba's tsukemen tradition. Worth the trip to Kokufudai alone." "Sells out fast, so aim for right at 11 AM opening."
