Sumida City, Tokyo, Japan｜Chanpu

It is a shop with an atmosphere like an old-fashioned coffee shop. Because it is in the basement, it feels a little damp and is not separated from smoke. Due to the location near the off-track betting ticket sales area, horse races are broadcast live, and there are many customers with horse racing newspapers. It is a good shop for those who are okay with such an atmosphere. The original spaghetti that you won't find anywhere else is exceptionally delicious.

It can be said that this is a hidden gem. It looks like an old fashioned coffee shop. Since the shop is in the basement, there are no windows, so it feels a little dark, but the wood tone gives it a nice atmosphere. The table and chairs are a little small, and the space accommodates about 20 people. Because of its location in Kinshicho, the sumo wrestlers come here once in a while. The master is very friendly and will remember your face as soon as you go a few times. There are many recommendations here, but among them, the green pepper pasta, miso pasta, and gratin are recommended. All of these are unique and delicious. It's a simple pasta without any toppings, but it's so delicious that you can't stop eating it. The green chili pepper pasta is quite spicy, so if you don't like spicy food, I recommend the miso-based pasta. The gratin itself is small, but it is hot and the white sauce and cheese are appetizing. We recommend adding cheese as a topping.

Anyway, miso pasta is delicious. The owner is also a very nice person. The smell of tobacco is strong, so be careful if you don't like it.
