Recommended bowl: Strong OG Taishoken

This shop has direct roots to the famous Higashi Ikebukuro Taishouken, inventor of tsukemen. Master Takahashi-san serves similar style bowls but much richer than the standard Taishouken. OG Tokyo-style tsukemen with chcken, pork, gyokai and vegetable soup. Hints of sugar and vinegar. Noodles supplied by Taishouken. Originally located in Takinogawa, moved and reopened in Ikebukuro in 2015.
