I was out late in Harajuku the other night and happened to be a little peckish, if would be fair to say it probably had a little something to do with a belly full of beer.
Late night food for me in Japan usually leads to 1 thing …. Ramen.
The usual masses of people were absent from Jangara Ramen so there was no trouble getting a seat right away.
Scanning the menu i noticed a spicy miso ramen i hadn’t seen before, ’nuff said …. and YES, it was every bis as spicy as it looks!
Jangara Ramen has 6 shops around Tokyo so if you love your Ramen i suggest you give this place a go.

I actually did give this a try when I was there, on your past recommendation. Very good stuff! They should sign you up as a spokesman, Neil.
Yum! I’m a fan of Nogata Hope Ramen – shops all over, including a few in Harajuku/Sendagaya. http://www.nogata-hope.com/
Cheers, will give it a try!
I’m all over it. There’s always a lineup outside of this place.
Good to hear someone else loves it Billy.
Haven’t been to the one at harajuku, but I have had it at the 本店 in Akihabara. It’s on the Ramen map!
Wow! Looks great Duck. Want to help me open up a ramen shop in Australia?
I think there’s 1 in Melbourne, i remember my last visit about 1.5 yrs ago wanting to give it a go …. although it was 42 degrees that day and i was hungover with Bob so we ended up at the boozer instead.
last time i was in Japan the wife’s brother took me to a shop near the fish market in Yokohama. Normally i am not a big fan of ramen but what this little old lady made i couldn’t get enough of. I still think of it and havent found a place in nyc that even comes close. when i find out more i’ll post it for you.
Please do Jay.
The name of the place is Otemoyan its on kokudo ichigousen (we think).. only thing is the wife said you need a car to get there.
I need to find someone that does ramen restaurant reviews in London!
Could be on to something there mate. The site doesn’t look like much but it’s a WEALTH of information. http://www.ramentokyo.com/ … the bible of ramen in Tokyo.
Yummie….
Saika Ramen is still my favorite across Japan, however, that looks oishiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii….
You’ve made some good points there. I looked online for the issue and discovered most people will go along with your website.
