Ramen at Tantan (タンタン )

Recommended bowl: Hachioji legend

A legendary Hachioji ramen shop open since 1980, and run by the mother of another legendary Hachioji shop, Minmin. Only open for lunch; long lines daily. The menu is super simple, serving your typical Hachioji-style ramen with a light shoyu base, thin slices of chashu, thin noodles, and white onion. Most customers go with the chashumen until it sells out (which it always does). For Hachioji-style ramen, this is about as good as it gets.
