Ramen restaurant • 2-chōme-16-38 Takanawa, Minato City, Tokyo 108-0074, Japan
Located in the quiet residential area of Takanawa, Tokyo, stands the Machida Shouten Takanawa Gateway Store. This long-established ramen shop, boasting a history of over 70 years since its establishment, embodies the traditions of home-style ramen from the downtown area of Tokyo.
Home-style ramen is characterized by its rich soup carefully made from pork bones. The soup at Machida Shouten has a rich flavor that spreads the atmosphere of downtown Tokyo with every sip. The handmade low-water noodles enhance the taste of the soup, with a moderate elasticity and firmness, allowing you to fully enjoy the flavorful soup to the last drop.
The ramen comes with free toppings such as grated garlic, chopped onions, and ginger. Adding these toppings can change the taste of the soup, allowing you to customize it to your liking. Additionally, from 11:00 am to 6:00 pm, half rice is served for free, so you can also enjoy dipping it in the ramen soup and eating it like porridge.
The appeal of Machida Shouten lies in its reasonable pricing and warm customer service. Open until late at night, it is a strong ally for those working late. The interior, which exudes the atmosphere of the downtown, is enveloped in a calm and tranquil ambiance.
Continuing to preserve the authenticity of home-style ramen, Machida Shouten continues to increase its new charms with the times. Being able to experience the traditional warmth and taste of the downtown area while enjoying the flavors of the downtown, is truly the allure of this shop.
