Sichuan Dou Hua/Marunouchi四川豆花飯荘/丸の内
High end Szechwan cuisine and prices to match, at least at dinner, in good old (new?) Shin Marubiru. The service lunch is 1500 yen, I chose the large bowl of suratanmen but they also have mapo tofu etc. which is good. The 8-treasure tea is interesting with the guy in the yellow Chinese jumpsuit [...]

Oosaki-san of RamenBank fame, of 18000 ramen bowls eaten fame etc., has started an online ramen home delivery service.

Some other shops have been doing this through the Rakuten online portal but this is the first time I have seen someone [...]

20. December 2010
At Shinatetsu in Nakanobu (Tokyu Oimachi Line, Ebaramachi Station), not to be confused with Shinatatsu in Shinagawa, what looks like a husband and wife team work together to create good quality shoyu-blend ramen. They opened in March of 2010. There is no ticket machine so you order at the counter. It was a bit [...]

20. December 2010
Menya Shimiru just opened recently under the Rasoi and Meguro Tavern locations on Meguro-Dori going southwest from JR Meguro Station. (If it’s the one I am thinking of, then shimiru しみる means “to penetrate”). Shimiru is in the basement of the building, and there are actually two ways to get in. It offers a [...]

15. December 2010
Koushi is located along the main drag in Komaba going south from Keio Komabatodaimae station towards the Tsukuba Daigaku/Komaba High School campus. It was crowded as soon as I walked in – not many other places nearby for one, but for a place in this type of suburb to be this crowded immediately after [...]

15. December 2010
This is a Jiro clone in Ogikubo, the best one in a long time. Well-blended between shoyu and tonkotsu, very salty broth, one of the best broths out of all the the Jiro clones that I have had. Well-cut pork pieces, good balance of dark meat and lighter meat and fat as you can [...]

Suzu (“bell”, すず, 鈴) is located in Ebisu, off Komazawa Dori, around the corner from the KFC, across from the station. It’s near the little tiny shrine where the managers from the Sapporo headquarters at Ebisu Garden Place come to pray every year for good business the following year. They have a very limited [...]

14. December 2010
Took a day trip to do some hiking along the Uchibo Line and the southern end of Chiba. Got off at JR Takeoka Station – cats and spiders all over the place. This is the famed source for Takeoka ramen – Umenoya. The pork is cut from a long fatty grilled block. The noodles [...]
