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 live by a few simple mantras, 1 of them being “hot day cold food, cold day hot food”.
That being said this winter i`ve scoffed down my fair share of ramen and if i had to narrow it down to a top 3 then Tantanmen at Kohmen Ramen would be in it.
Up until a fortnight ago i`d only known of 2 shops, both a train ride from home …. that was untl i walked home a new direction and found a shop on route.
In the pursuit of something different to eat the other night i stumbled across Wontonmen at a local restaurant just near Yoyogi Station.
Up until then i`d never seen in on the menu but now i`m glad i did, it`s a great blend of Ramen with a good 3 or 4 steamed Wontons floating in a great broth.
It was bloody well priced too coming in at 1200 yen for the Wontonmen and a beer.
