Recommended bowl: Shichisai disciple

Jun Teuchi Daruma was launched in March 2018 by a former apprentice of the famed ramen powerhouse Shichisai. As is the case at Shichisai, the focus here is on the teuchi handmade noodles. After each order comes in, the master cuts fresh noodles from a ball of dough right out on the counter, dusts them in flour, and pounds/kneads them briefly to give them the proper texture and then plunges them into the boiling water. The result is a thick, wavy, deliciously light and chewy noodle. The soup is a clear chicken and pork base with a light shoyu tare. Served with two types of pork chashu, negi and house-made menma.
