特製醤油そば / Tokusei Shoyu Soba / Menya Rurikakesu — Kiba, Tokyo
Shoyu soup uses Kagoshima black Satsuma, red Satsuma and Amakusa daioh brand chickens, combined with a dashi broth of katsuobushi from Makurazaki and Rausu kombu. Thick house-made temomi noodles contain whole wheat flour. No MSG. Topped with pork shoulder loin and kurobuta thigh chashu, ajitama, kinshi tamago, chicken breast, menma, Kujo negi, nori and wontons. Inspired by a local chicken-rice dish from the owner's hometown called 'kei-han' which features similar toppings.
