Master Ishizuka-san previously worked as an Italian chef running six restaurants before he decided to become a ramen chef. He was first featured on a tv program as a student learning about ramen from the legendary master Sano-san, then opened his flaghsip 'Due Italian' in Ichigaya. He now has five shops in Tokyo, one in Osaka, and one in Taiwan. This branch, open since June 2017, serves a clear chicken based shoyu soup, topped with olive oil. Noodles are ordered via Mikawaya Seimen. Hayashi ramen also popular, as is the limited summer chilled ramen covered in cherry tomatoes.
