Shibuya City, Tokyo, Japan｜Tokumen Kotsu-Iccho Ramen (KotsuIchi)

What a delightful stumble minutes away from our airbnb. A delicious rich and flavourful bowl of ramen with thick slabs of roast pork. Thank you chef !

Oh my God, Becky look at my gut! This isn't a place I need to go to occasionally, it's a place I try to not go to every night! Midnight Diner atmosphere and truly some of the best ramen in this town. 7 seats and a line down the sidewalk tells you something special happens inside. The beer is in bottles, but it's better than beer from other places. The chef is a master craftsman. The portions are enormously perfect. The pork is magnificently prepared. The soup is amazing. The noodles are special and everything better than you'd ever expect. You like Tokyo ramen? Jinanbo? Ichiran? Yamachan? Ippudo? Motenashi? Well, none of those places has a better bowl than here, and I'd say this is better than any of those. Doubt it? Yeah, probably and with good reason. Unless you've tried it, and then your doubts would be forgotten in the excitment of finding perhaps the best damned ramen in Tokyo.

Great tasting ramen and friendly owner/chef. This was my first stop after arriving in Tokyo. No one really speaks much English here but the authenticity of this small noodle shop gives a really charming feel. Definitely worth a try
