Crab Taifu
crab台風。
Overview
Located in Kamata, Tokyo, "crab台風。" is a unique ramen shop characterized by its rich, potage-like soup, intensely condensed with the umami of crab. Customers purchase meal tickets from a vending machine inside the shop, and please note that only cash payments are accepted. The exterior doesn't strongly resemble a typical ramen shop, and with only 10 counter seats, it's a small establishment that often bustles with locals, sometimes forming queues right from opening time. You can also enjoy a change in flavor with 'Aedama' (seasoned extra noodles), so be sure to give it a try!
How to Order
Here's how to order ramen at crab台風。:
1**Before Entering (If there's a line)**
The exterior might not look like a typical ramen shop, so please keep an eye out for it. If you see a line in front of the shop, please join the end of it. Observe other customers to determine whether to purchase your meal ticket before entering or after.
2**Purchase Meal Ticket / Order**
Before taking a seat, please purchase your meal ticket from the vending machine. Payment is cash only. In addition to the main ramen, there's also a special "Aedama" (mixed noodle ball), which is like a seasoned noodle refill, allowing you to enjoy a different flavor experience.
3**Seating & Receiving**
Please take an available counter seat and hand your purchased meal ticket to a staff member.

28杯目 蒲田 crab台風。蟹煮干しそば、くずチャーシュー、玉ねぎ。一昨年蒲田に移転。甲殻類のラーメンはあまり食べないのですが蒲田散歩してて思い出すように初訪。経験値少ないですが今まで食べたコレ系でどこよりも蟹、ウマい。和え玉も迷いましたがデフォでも麺量あります。次はデフォを。 pic.twitter.com/sS305v4QBw
