Tonryu Kitashirakawa

A distinctive ramen shop in Kitashirakawa, beloved for over 25 years. Its signature dish, 'Toryu Soba,' features a golden, potage-like soup, slowly simmered with chicken, pork, and vegetables. It offers an inventive flavor that will surprise you with its originality, making you exclaim, 'Oh, that's how it is!' upon the first sip. Chives provide a subtle accent, and adding the special chili oil available on the table transforms the taste, creating a different experience in the latter half of your meal. Menus from the formerly adjacent 'Fukusenrou' have also been integrated, allowing you to enjoy two distinct culinary styles at one shop. The selection of side dishes is also extensive, including soupless yatai soba and tendon rice. Orders are placed via a ticket vending machine, but be aware that the main menu lacks photos and English descriptions. Dedicated parking is available behind the shop, and there are terrace seats. Cash only.
