Great noodles at Ichibanichiban in Machida.
These posts are all mega old. My blog is around 10 months backdated and Instagram a few months past that. Am I doing social media wrong? #instafood #blessed #ramen #ラーメン

- Ramen Adventures added a new meal Dinner at 永福町 大勝軒 at Eifukucho Taishoken (永福町 大勝軒)
What is one of the reasons Eifukucho Taishoken became so famous?
Ice water.
Many decades ago, in the shop's early years, business was slow. The master decided to try something no other ramen shop did. Instead of tepid tap water, the norm, he bought an expensive ice machine and gave customers free flowing ice water alongside his hot bowls. Tokyo summers... More

Instant line around the block.
They still keep your glass full of ice water and offer to top you off after a few sips. Less

- Ramen Adventures added a new meal Dinner at ごらく at ごらく
Stumbled onto this random new shop near Higashi-Kitazawa. Serious analog sound system with 80s hip hop and the like. They aren't really open yet, so they are just doing chirashizushi ちらし寿司 for lunch. @goraku_higashikitazawa

- Ramen Adventures added a new meal Dinner at ハイマウント小山 at High Mount
High Mount is a junk style spot up in Ibaraki. Junk style ramen, mayonnaise and all, is possibly the best food on earth. Prove me wrong.

Thanks #nameredacted for the chef's tour of Toyosu Fish Market.
With overseas travel canceled we walked into Sushi Dai without a wait. This place has a reputation as a "tourist" sushi shop but the fish was all tops today. Pictured is a hefty sack of fugu shirako.

Sushi Arai recently took over another floor in the building, so Ms. Mei has the basement all to herself.

Horumon. Most places that have innards meat on point also have the wagyu A5 meat on point as well.

- Ramen Adventures added a new meal Dinner at スシンジュク at 魚学マニア スシンジュク
The 2000 yen rice bowl at newly opened SUSHINJUKU. It's meant to share but I took this one down. 500g rice, about 6 eggs, and a bunch of tuna. They have less aggressive menu items as well and are open until 3am, even now. Sneaky lemon sour with lunch was nice.
