わんたん入り醤油らぁ麺 / Wonton-iri Shoyu Ramen / Ramen FeeL - Ōme, Tokyo
Shoyu soup is made from chickens, pork and beef tendon. Noodles and wontons are house-made. Premium toppings like duck chashu, menma and greens. Master Watanabe-san started out as a drummer when he was young, pursuing music in America for 3 years after high school graduation. After returning to Japan he searched for music gigs, but struggled to find steady work and so he picked up some shifts at a ramen shop. What started out as a part time job soon turned into a career for him. In 2015, after responding to a tweet for help at a ramen event, Watanabe-san began apprenticing under Iida-san at the legendary shop Iida Shōten in Yugawara, Kanagawa. Watanabe-san started out cleaning, eventually working his way up in the kitchen step by step to become master Iida-san's top assistant and earn his respect. With Iida-san's blessing, Watanabe-san was free to open his own shop in the spring of 2020. Due to the timing of the pandemic, he decided to train a bit more at an Italian restaurant and a tantanmen shop. Ramen FeeL finally opened on February 28th, 2021. @ramen_feel Less

ラーメン / Ramen / Edmond - Nishi-Nippori, Tokyo
Fujimaru inspired Jiro style ramen, made with tonkotsu shoyu soup, bean sprouts, cabbage, chashu, garlic and pork fat. Noodles are house-made, regular size portion 300 grams. The 2nd brand and concept of the shop Izuru in Daimon, run by master Inomata-san. Having trained at Ōzeki Chūka Soba in Ebisu, Inomata-san specializes in niboshi soup, however he also highly respects the well known Jiro style shop Fujimaru in Kamiya. Hence, this is a tribute to that shop. The name Edmond is from Edmond Honda (E. Honda) in the Street Fighter video game. Perhaps if you eat this ramen, you will turn out like a sumo wrestler. Izuru open since 2017, Edmond since December 2020. Less

元祖デラックス / Ganso Deluxe / Ebimaru Ramen - Jimbocho, Tokyo
Creamy double soup is made by combining lobster bisque and tori paitan soups. The bisque contains lobsters, brandy, vegetables and herbs, while the tori paitan is made from whole chickens and chicken feet, simmered for 15 hours. Lobsters are ordered once a year from Canada, five tons at a time, which helps keep the price of each bowl reasonable considering the cost of ingredients. Noodles are special ordered using 100% domestic wheat. Served with rare chashu, diced red onion, cherry tomato, toast with sour cream, ajitama and wontons. Master Masa-san is from Gifu Prefecture and came to Tokyo when he was 17 years old, initially working for a French restaurant in Kyōbashi. He never trained at another ramen shop, teaching himself. Open since 2017. @ebimaru_ramen Less

五色涼拌麺 (元祖冷やし中華 ) / Gomoku Hiyashi Soba (Ganso Hiyashi Chūka) / Yōsukō Saikan - Jimbōchō, Tokyo
The original Hiyashi Chūka, a chilled ramen dish with strong Chinese influence and a history dating back 100 years. Yōsukō Saikan is a Chinese restaurant in central Tokyo, first opened in 1906 by master Shū-san, an immigrant from Shanghai. Originally located in Nishi-Kanda, the restaurant moved to its existing location in nearby Jimbōchō around 1930, a larger space with a seating capacity of 170. In 1933, Shū-san's son (who had taken over operations by then) first served the now legendary Hiyashi Chūka dish. It took two years of perfecting before it was ready to put on the menu. The tare is made sweet and sour using sugar, vinegar, shoyu and chicken dashi. The various toppings represent the four seasons of Japan, and are placed in a way to look like Mt. Fuji, which can sometimes be seen from Kanda-Jimbōchō. Less
