Recommended bowl: Potent pork & fish

Menya Nukaji debuted in Setagaya-ku in 2010, then closed and re-opened in central Shibuya in 2014. This shop serves tonkotsu gyokai ramen and tsukemen. Rich, velvety soup with potent pork and fish elements. The smooth, straight, medium-width noodles come from Mikawaya Seimen. Pork belly chashu, egg, bamboo shoots and nori seaweed go on top. The recommended bowl is the Ajitama Tsukemen— dipping noodles plus an egg. Less
