Tori no Ana

Overview
This toripaitan (rich chicken broth) specialty shop is located at Ikebukuro East Exit. Their signature 'Shiro-tori Ramen' (White Chicken Ramen) features a rich and creamy broth that isn't overly salty, renowned for being so delicious you'll want to drink every last drop. The medium-thick, chewy noodles beautifully cling to the thick soup. A spicy 'Aka-tori Ramen' (Red Chicken Ramen) is also available, inviting you to compare the delightful flavors of both the white and red varieties. Tsukemen (dipping noodles) are served with thin noodles. Soft chicken chashu and savory ground chicken soboro provide perfect accents. With prices starting from 860 yen, it offers excellent value. The touch-panel ticket vending machine comes with English explanations and photos, making ordering a breeze even for first-time visitors. The atmosphere is welcoming, with many solo female diners feeling comfortable. Please note that only cash payments are accepted.
How to Order
**Torinoana Ordering Process**
1**Before Entering (If there's a queue)**
If there's a queue, please line up behind other customers. 2. **Purchase Meal Ticket / Order** Purchase your meal ticket from the vending machine before taking a seat. The ticket machine is a touch panel type with English indications and photos, so you can order with confidence. Only cash is accepted. Choose from our main dishes like "Shiro (Tori Paitan)" or "Aka (Spicy Tori Paitan)", Tsukemen (dipping noodles), Mugimeshi (barley rice), or the monthly limited menu. Please observe other customers to see if you should buy the ticket first or after entering. 3. **Seating & Receiving Your Order** Once a seat is available, please sit down and hand your meal ticket to a staff member. Please wait a moment until your ordered ramen is served. 4. **Other Tips** If you ordered Mugimeshi, it's popular to pour the remaining soup over it and eat it like a risotto.

お伺いしたのは池袋の鶏の穴。
池袋東口で18年続く、鶏白湯ラーメンの専門店です。

とろみのあるスープは口当たりまったりで、じんわりと優しく染み渡る味わいがまずまずの美味さ。
ツルッとしたすすり心地の麺がよく合います pic.twitter.com/QDOATJcMou
