Old-school style, somewhat legendary shop in Ginza originally open in 1956. The original shop closed in March 2016, with a renewal opening in May 2019. The house special is a Tokyo style shoyu ramen, with a clear soup of gyokai (fish) and pork topped with just a little bit of pork back fat. Before the shop closed in 2016, the noodles and wontons were ordered via a supplier. While the shop was closed, the master's son got a job at another ramen shop and learned how to make noodles.
