Itabashi City, Tokyo, Japan｜Guchoku

Very Nice Place

They serve unique original tonkotsu ramen. It is not the so-called Hakata tonkotsu type. It's basically a simple pork bone creamy dish, but it has a rich taste, no odor, and it's loaded with ingredients. It seems as if the timing of offering the substitute balls is perfectly timed. There may not be many tonkotsu ramen shops like this. The soup looks like it's bubbling a little, and it's rich but not boring. The whole grain noodles are firm and thin, yet thick. You can't get a large portion and only get one extra serving, which shows that they want you to enjoy the meal until the end. And the side menu is also excellent. First, Karashi Takana. A whopping 50 yen. The home-made spiciness and crunchiness go perfectly with the soup. And loosened chashu. A whopping 100 yen. Although it is a small plate, it is a large portion, and the saltiness of the boiled pork comes first, but the flavor of the pork is also strong. Personally, I don't like smelly tonkotsu ramen, so the tonkotsu here is my favorite in Tokyo. By the way, the limited edition ramen is also delicious. It's interesting that they offer something completely different from their signature tonkotsu ramen. The back fat pork bone soy sauce ramen I ate one day was salty, rich and chewy. The noodles are hard, very thick and straight, and have a slight smell. It's fun to bring out your individuality in a limited edition. Business hours may be irregular, but they are updated on Twitter from time to time, so check before going.

A ramen shop located right in front of the Shimogashira Bridge bus stop, which is close to Kan-Nana. Contrary to its unusual name, it is purely about pork bones. I've been here many times before, but it's amazing that the tonkotsu ramen with a variety of ingredients (there are no special options) is still priced at 800 yen in these harsh times thanks to the dictatorship. It is still legendary that it used to cost around 600 yen. It's a so-called shabby soup, but it has a familiar smell with a slight tonkotsu smell. A popular restaurant with a wide range of limited menu items.
