Nagao Chuka Soba Kanda hails from north Honshu in Aomori prefecture. The master, Nagao-san, is known as something of a niboshi master when it comes to soup. He now runs five shops in Aomori, and this is his first permanent location in Tokyo. Located near the center of the city, it’s a cramped shop, with customers squeezing up against one another in tight quarters. Basically, there are two types of soup available, the light (assari) or the rich (koku). The light soup is made with just niboshi and water, nothing else. The thicker bowl is made from niboshi with a combination of chicken and pork. The noodles are specially ordered without kansui (lye water) from Mikawaya Seimen. Open since July 30, 2018. Less
