Recommended bowl: Chicken & niboshi

Master Kurato Shirakaiwa-san trained at the well known shop Ikaruga for seven years. The shop is named after the master's daughter and son, Nonoka and Kurato, respectively. The soup stock here contains whole chicken carcasses, chicken meat, four types of niboshi and kombu. The thick teuchi style noodles are made fresh by master Shirakaiwa-san daily. Premium ingredients are used in the toppings. A bowl that's worth the wait at the door. One of the best shops to open in Tokyo in late 2017.
