Yuaitei
友愛亭
Overview
Yuaitei is a soy sauce ramen specialty shop located in the Nihonbashi Electric Town area. All menu names, such as 'Right Straight,' 'Razor Punch,' and 'Heavy,' are boxing-themed, and the shop features a unique interior decorated with combat sports posters. The signature 'Right Straight' uses a soup blended with Higashimaru dark and light soy sauces; despite its rich appearance, it's not salty, offering a gentle spread of soy sauce umami. The palm-sized, thick-cut chashu is so tender it falls apart easily with chopsticks, with many customers regretting not ordering extra. If you prefer a lighter taste, the 'Razor Punch,' based on light soy sauce, is highly recommended. A wide range of toppings is available, and you can enjoy a flavor change with butter (100 yen) or a touch of garlic (50 yen). The touch-panel ticket vending machine has photos and a separate English menu. It accepts cards (VISA/Master), transit IC cards, PayPay, d払い, au PAY, and Alipay. The warm hospitality of the owner couple is also highly praised, with thoughtful touches like offering lap blankets and assisting customers who are unsure at the vending machine.

注文から提供までが結構速い上、シンプルな醤油ラーメンでめちゃ美味い。
缶コーラ(セルフ)と合わせても1000円だから結構お安くておすすめ! pic.twitter.com/Y0tYbnUi3b
