Close to Shibuya, good price
In this beautiful Shibuya basement you can try ramen and tsukemen a la tonkotsu (pork bone).
In terms of price it's pretty good, about 5 euros for ramen and 7.50 for the tsukemen, and given the location, about 10 minutes from the Shibuya station and the famous Hachiko statue, you really can't complain.
In this place you pay a set price and you can choose the amount of pasta you want, and the largest size (Chou) is truly enormous. In each table there's a basket of hard-boiled eggs to put on the ramen and each one is about 40 euro cents.
For those who don't know, the main difference between the ramen and the tsukemen is that in the ramen the noodles go in the soup while in the Tsukemen they give you the soup and noodles separately and you dip the pasta in the soup. You can also choose whether you want it hot or cold.
I had already been there on my previous visit to Tokyo and I liked it but this time I was a bit more accustomed to japanese food and I have to say that this was my favorite restaurant of the trip. The Tsukemen is delicious and it comes with a spicy wasabi-type sauce but with a type of spice that you put in the proper portion the soup comes out delicious and so do the noodles when you dip them
If you don't want to put spicy stuff directly just in case, I recommend that you put it on a spoon, mix it a little and then dip the noodles on a spoon. It's more complicated and requires a bit of practice, that that's the best way to eat it.
I liked it so much, this time I went a whopping 4 times... hahaha. And even though I like to try new and different places, I liked this one so much...
It's delicious with a great ambiance and music!
