Mensho Ichiryumanbai Kawaramachi

A convenient ramen shop located a 5-minute walk from Sanjo Station, open until 3 AM. It's part of the Raamen Hayashida lineage, with an elegant soy sauce ramen based on chicken and duck broth as its signature dish. For tsukemen, the chewy noodles soaked in kombu water are first enjoyed on their own, then dipped into the accompanying soup. The Kawaramachi branch also offers a full lineup of unique variations such as the Kawaramachi-exclusive mazesoba and se-abura mazemen (mazemen with pork back fat). The two-kind char siu plate with smoked pork and chicken char siu, tender bamboo shoots (hosaki menma), and perfectly soft-boiled seasoned egg (ajitama) are also highly praised. You can order by viewing pictures on a touch-panel ticket machine, with extra noodles (kaedama) costing 100 yen. Table seating is also available, making it suitable for groups. Cash only.
