Asakusa Ramen Yoroiya
浅草名代らーめん 与ろゐ屋
Overview
"Asakusa Nadaime Ramen Yoroiya" is a long-established Japanese-style ramen shop located in Asakusa 1-chome, just a 1-minute walk from Senso-ji Temple. Situated in the atmospheric heart of Asakusa, it's cherished as a venerable institution for Tokyo-style shoyu (soy sauce) ramen. The building has been renovated, offering a spacious layout with 32 seats in total: 7 counter seats on the first floor and 23 table seats on the second floor. The signature shoyu ramen (950 yen) features a refined Japanese-style chintan (clear) soup, crafted from domestic chicken and pork marrow bones, blended with niboshi (dried sardines), katsuobushi (bonito flakes), and konbu (kelp). Its delicate flavor, refreshing aroma of grated yuzu, and a subtle touch of mitsuba (Japanese parsley) are its hallmarks. The gentle taste, reminiscent of osuimono (clear broth) or ozoni (rice cake soup), makes it perfect for "Asa-ra" (morning ramen, served from 8:30 AM to 10:00 AM). The medium-thin wavy noodles are designed to perfectly entwine with the soup, and a must-try specialty is the generously sized nimono tamago (marinated soft-boiled egg), uniquely made using only twin-yolk eggs. The Japanese-style gyoza (450 yen) is a substantial, large-sized offering made with chicken thigh and vermicelli. Being garlic-free, it's a reassuring option for guests who prefer to avoid the scent of garlic. Served elegantly with sansho (Japanese pepper) salt for dipping, these are unique chicken gyoza that are both plump and light. The shop also offers vegan ramen (1400 yen) and vegan gyoza, demonstrating its broad consideration for international travelers with religious or dietary restrictions. While its main clientele consists of foreign tourists, the shop is well-prepared to assist them with attentive staff fluent in English and Chinese.

4Other
The soup is a clear, Japanese-style soy sauce broth based on domestic chicken and pork leg bones, finished with dried sardines, bonito flakes, and kombu, with grated yuzu and mitsuba accents adding an elegant aroma. Characteristic features include medium-thin wavy noodles with a somen-like texture, and twin soft-boiled eggs (only twin eggs are selected and used). The Japanese-style gyoza on the side are large, made with chicken thigh and vermicelli, and contain no garlic, making them suitable for those sensitive to garlic odor. Eating them with sansho salt is a classic way. Vegan ramen and vegan gyoza are also available, catering to international visitors with religious or dietary restrictions.

Miso Mendokoro Tasakaya (Ikebukuro): Navigating the Japanese-Only Ticket Machine and a Review of its Robust Miso Ramen
Miso Mendokoro Tasakaya, a miso ramen specialist located in Nishi-Ikebukuro, is just about a 5-minute walk from Ikebukuro Station's West Exit. This shop is known for its hearty miso ramen: a thick, rich, slightly sweet miso broth, firm thick noodles, melt-in-your-mouth chashu, and a towering pile of crisp bean sprouts (moyashi) – a truly robust and voluminous bowl. The menu features four main series: Miso Ramen, Kara-Miso Ramen (spicy miso), Aemen (a brothless mixed noodle dish), and IWGP Geki-Kara Ramen (extra hot). This guide, based on our visit on Friday, May 22, 2026 (arrived at 6:39 PM with a 13-person queue), provides photos and tips for first-time visitors to Japan. We'll cover how to navigate the Japanese-only, no-photo ticket vending machine using a color guide, understand the queuing situation (only 9 counter seats and long noodle cooking times mean slower turnover), tips to avoid crowds, and the cash-only payment policy.

Ramen Jiro "Kabuji" (Shinjuku-Kabukicho): The Complete Guide to Jiro Calls and Timing
Just a 1-minute walk from Seibu-Shinjuku Station North Exit, Ramen Jiro Shinjuku-Kabukicho, affectionately known as Kabuji (a nickname combining Kabukicho + Jiro), is the fourth oldest chokkei (direct-lineage) shop of the Ramen Jiro chain. Its late-night hours from 11:30 AM to 2:30 AM (Mon, Tue, Thu-Sun, closed Wed) are a unique advantage among chokkei shops, making it ideal for combining with Kabukicho sightseeing or as a late-night ramen after drinks. With its semi-emulsified pork-bone shoyu broth, homemade flat thick wavy noodles, unique call (shouted topping order ritual) culture (Ninniku (raw grated garlic), Yasai (boiled bean sprouts on top), Abura (solid back fat for richness), Karame (extra soy tare for stronger salty taste), Mashi (more, about 1.5×), Sukuname (less, about half)), the chokkei system of ticket-folding (a wordless system to request firmer or softer noodles by folding the meal ticket) to specify noodle hardness, lot system (a Jiro-specific eating rhythm where the same batch of customers finish together) manners, and specific rules (no phone calls, no photography except ramen, no drunken entry), this article provides a complete guide based on our visit on May 15, 2026, where we ordered a Small Ramen (¥950) with the call 'Ninniku Sukuname, Yasai, Abura'.
