I’ll still have to give it a go for myself …. just to make sure, it might have changed hands since then.

Ate at the Black Lion pub some years ago…worst cuisine I’ve ever had (and I used to live in England!). After a long day at the office, I wanted a good bowl of ramen soup, but no, I had to get dragged to the Black Lion! >:-(

It looked like a nice enough place to eat, location wise, but anywhere doing a Thai / Italian combo makes me wary too … only because it will more than likely taste like shit.

Sounds like some good advice Jason.

Stupidly I went against the advice of Ramen Tokyo and paid the price Billy!

Have never ventured far from Meguro Station…
Now, I don’t have to. As always, thanks, Neil.

Have to question your decision to hit that ramen shop, though

I was scrolling down to see if you would mention the great art museum and park just minutes from Meguro station. I recently visited Meguro station several times and was very impressed with both the Teien Art Museum and Shizen Kyoikuen Park. I found these two things are what made Meguro unique and standout. The park is not just the usual traditional garden, but rather like a nature preserve: http://jasoncollin.org/2008/09/29/shizen-kyoikuen-park-meguro-tokyo-japan/

If people have never thought much of Meguro, after visiting those two places, one may become a fan.

I pass that Tek Tek restaurant every day when I walk home from Meguro station. Although it smells great, I have yet to eat there because I’m admittedly weary of Thai/Italian cuisine.

For good reason, I think.
