Kurenai serves some of the best spicy miso ramen in Tokyo – among the top five in town. Standard miso ramen and tsukemen are also offered. The shop name means “red” in Japanese – you'll know why when you get your bowl. The shop exterior is covered in pine paneling; you can’t miss it.

Kurenai’s soup is made with tonkotsu, chicken and miso. The spicy miso comes drizzled in a delicious house-made ra-yu (chili oil). The shop serves seven varieties of house-made noodles in every bowl – this is rather uncommon but the variety of textures is very enjoyable. Tasty strips of juicy yaki-buta (roasted pork) are the standard toppings, along with some cabbage, bean sprouts and shredded chili.

Kurenai is open every day of the year until 1 am. Spicy after-boozing goodness for those on the Keio line. Less
