Ichiro Ramen - Experience authentic konbu-dashi dipping noodles at the long-established ramen shop in Yoyogi

Ichiro Ramen in Yoyogi, Tokyo. At this long-established ramen shop, you can enjoy the traditional flavors that have been passed down since its founding. The most popular menu item is the addictive '特製昆布水つけ麺' (specialty konbu-dashi dipping noodles).

Authentic dipping noodles with a hint of konbu flavor

The specialty '特製昆布水つけ麺' (specialty konbu-dashi dipping noodles) at Ichiro Ramen is served with the noodles first soaked in konbu dashi. When you take a bite, a subtle konbu flavor gently spreads in your mouth. It's delicious on its own, with a refreshing texture that's pleasant on the throat.

The dipping sauce has a unique flavor with a bit of spiciness. Adding yuzu citrus to the sauce gives it a refreshing sourness, adding depth to the flavor. If you finish the noodles and still have some konbu dashi left, you can dilute it with the soup to create an exquisite bowl. With each small tweak, the flavor changes, keeping it interesting till the end.

I went here a few times during my trip to Tokyo. It was probably my favourite pork ramen. The staff were friendly and welcoming. I would agree with some of the other comments regarding the amount of soup/broth but overall the ramen was great and I would recommend it to anyone passing by Yoyogi.

The special kelp water tsukemen is delicious. It is best to soak the noodles in kelp water and serve. If you dip the noodles first and eat without dipping them in the sauce, you'll get a faint flavor from the kelp stock, which is delicious on its own. The texture is also good. The dipping sauce has a slightly spicy taste that I like. It's also delicious if you drizzle some Kabosu in the middle to add a refreshing acidity. I mixed the soup with the remaining kelp water at the end, and it was even more delicious.

A ramen shop near Yoyogi Station. It's a rather rich pork bone ramen, but the lack of soup is fatal. It feels like all the ingredients are on top of the noodles. The taste wasn't bad either, but I don't think I'd want to eat it again. Do ramen restaurants that don't have a lot of soup serve it because they think there are people who want to eat it? …wonder.

I sometimes stop by on my way home from work, but there are always customers. Is it okay because I'm not there? And I think. The special kelp water tsukemen is chosen by the person who eats it. At first glance, I don't know how to eat it. Because the noodles are in the extremely slimy kelp water, If you use chopsticks, they will slip and you won't be able to scoop the noodles properly. Every time I add it to the dipping sauce, the sauce gets thinner and thinner. In the second half, the taste of the sauce was almost gone. It is not recommended to use large portions of noodles. It may be delicious for people who like it Personally, I like Touka's Tsukemen, which is located two doors down. That suited me better.
