Ramen FeeL is a ramen shop in Tokyo, located in the western reaches of the city, past Ome. The shop offers homemade noodles, five types of chashu, and specialty items. Despite being an hour and a half drive or two-hour train ride from central Tokyo, it is still open daily and offers 90 bowls. The shop is the first official descendant of Ramen Idashoten, the highest-rated ramen shop in Japan. The shio ramen is a top-tier bowl, featuring four kinds of salt, pork and chicken soup, and pork backfat from Iberico pigs. The shoyu ramen blends ten different soy sauces from around Japan and uses eggs from prized Nagoya Kochin chickens. The shio is becoming their famous bowl, but two bowls in a row is too much for some.

Kyonoichiban (Today's Best) is a popular shop that serves both ramen and curry. Niboshi ramen, popular in Japan for over a decade, is unpopular overseas due to its bitter, smoky, and fishy flavors. The shop displays the dried seafood ingredients used in the ramen each day, with the thick style using different fish. The niboshi comes from Chiba and Aomori, with dried barracuda and flying fish. The thick version is full of flavor and bitter, while the sweet seafood curry is sweet and spicy. There is no mini curry option, so two full meals are required for the experience.
