Dinner at 竹末東京プレミアム

竹末東京プレミアム (Takesue in Sumida-ku)

This hidden gem in Tokyo's Tochigi prefecture is known for its rock vibe and a unique menu featuring shio and shoyu ramen. The shio ramen is made with Japanese trout, while the 鶏ホタテそば is a chicken and scallop bowl. The trout ramen has a fishy flavor similar to salmon, while the chicken-based soup is a simple base for the pork and beef chashu. Located near the Tokyo Sky Tree, it feels undiscovered.

Ramen at Takesue Tokyo (竹末東京)

Recommended bowl: Ramen from Tochigi

Takesue made its name in Tochigi prefecture and opened its first Tokyo branch in 2014. Their shoyu ramen (chuka soba) comes highly recommended. A delicious layer of chiyu (chicken oil) floats atop the soup, and the toppings are extravagant. The bowl comes with chunks and slabs of pork shoulder, beef belly and rare roast beef. The menma is house-made and wonderful. The master boils the bowls before pouring in the ingredients, so it's all served piping hot. They... More

Recommended bowl: Ramen from Tochigi

Takesue made its name in Tochigi prefecture and opened its first Tokyo branch in 2014. Their shoyu ramen (chuka soba) comes highly recommended. A delicious layer of chiyu (chicken oil) floats atop the soup, and the toppings are extravagant. The bowl comes with chunks and slabs of pork shoulder, beef belly and rare roast beef. The menma is house-made and wonderful. The master boils the bowls before pouring in the ingredients, so it's all served piping hot. They also serve a shio ramen, but we strongly recommend the shoyu.

The shop has a 90s Japanese rock concept and the chef occasionally wears badass sunglasses while he cooks. The shop's counter seating is arranged closely around the open ramen kitchen, so customers are given a clear view of every step in the preparation process – it's almost as if the master is performing on stage. The shop is a short walk from Tokyo Sky Tree, the world's second-tallest manmade structure, and there's a comfortable indoor waiting area. A convenient top-level ramen option for tourists. Less
