He opened Isoji just before he turned 50, and has now gone on to open his second branch (Kiraku) in Shimbashi. His first disciple runs Isoji.

The noodles are handmade using tapioca, and the noodle machine can be seen in the back of the shop. Aside from ramen and tsukemen, there is also miso ramen, miso tsukemen, and jiro style ramen. Less
