Ramen restaurant • 4-chōme-2-17 Sugita, Isogo Ward, Yokohama, Kanagawa 235-0033, Japan
Menya Zukachan, located in Isogo Ward, Yokohama, is a popular shop known for its Jiro-style ramen. One of its most popular dishes is the 'Shio-patan', a salt-based ramen which offers a flavor that is truly different from the usual soy sauce-based ramen, leaving a deep impression on those who try it for the first time.
The charm of this shop lies in its weekly limited-time menu items. Just the thought of what the 'Hell Ramen' or the 'Hinode Salt' would taste like is enough to make you excited. You can enjoy a unique taste experience that differs from the usual Jiro-style ramen, such as the exquisite balance of spiciness and richness, or the great match of grated yam and egg.
The ramen here is quite generous in portion, even the regular size is sufficient. The ordering process is clearly displayed, making it easy to customize your order with extra toppings or higher noodle amounts according to your preference, making it accessible even for women.
However, it is worth noting that the quality may not be consistent, so visiting at the best timing might be wise.
The inner atmosphere is stylish with only counter seating, allowing you to focus on your ramen without worrying about eye contact. However, since there is no parking lot, it is necessary to find a nearby coin parking area.
Even for those tired of the Jiro-style, why not visit at least once? You are sure to be surprised by the unique flavors.
