Ramen restaurant • Japan, 〒146-0082 Tokyo, Ota City, Ikegami, 6-chōme−8−７ カレリアビル 1F
The Chinese ramen shop 'Yangzhou Merchant Ichigaya Shop' in the downtown area of Ota-ku, Tokyo is a hidden gem that sticks to the taste of authentic China. The rich menu and the chef's skills shine brightly, which is unimaginable from the storefront in the back alley.
The charm of this shop lies in the surprisingly rich variety of noodle dishes. There are over 20 ramen menus, including super spicy ramen using golden chili, sour and spicy Sura Tanmen, and exquisite Mapo tofu noodles, which are so varied that you will be amazed.
Among them, the recommended dish is the beef light spicy ramen, which surprisingly has a spiciness hidden behind its appearance. When you slurp the transparent salt soup, a strong pungent taste of chili suddenly spreads in your mouth. However, the following rich flavor changes that spiciness into a pleasant one.
There is also a rich variety of noodles to choose from, such as thick sword-cut noodles, Yangzhou noodles, and thin willow noodles. In particular, Yangzhou noodles are popular for their smooth and firm texture, which goes well with the creamy ramen soup.
Not only ramen, but also the quality of the small dishes is high, especially the pork xiaolongbao is excellent. The 'Red Fortune Baked Xiaolongbao', where the skin is baked and eaten on a spoon, is a precious opportunity to taste the exquisite crispy texture and flavorful soup at home.
In addition, there are authentic Chinese dishes such as almond tofu and mapo eggplant, which are perfect for drinking snacks.
The menu, created by a store owner from Xi'an, China, who has thoroughly trained Japanese staff, is a collection of excellent products worthy of the hidden gem in the back alley of Ichigaya. It is definitely worth a visit after taking a leisurely walk in Ichigaya.
