Shoyu Ramen
The house signature — a clear, elegant Tokyo-style soy sauce broth with chicken and pork base, topped with chashu, menma bamboo shoots, green onion, and nori. Clean and deeply flavourful.
¥870
Shio Ramen
Delicate salt-based broth with a lighter, more refined flavour profile. The same toppings as the shoyu version — chashu, menma, green onion, and nori — in a soup that showcases the broth itself.
¥870
Backfat Shoyu Ramen
Hakata Nagahama-style ramen with a creamy pork backfat layer floating over the soy broth, adding richness and body. Bold, satisfying, and warming.
¥850
Niboshi Ramen (limited)
Seasonal limited-offer bowl featuring a deeply savoury dried sardine (niboshi) broth — intensely umami with a characteristic slight bitterness. Available while supplies last.
¥900
Tsukemen (Dipping Noodles)
Tsukemen
Thick, chewy noodles served chilled alongside a warm concentrated dipping broth made from the shop's soy base. Dip each bundle of noodles before eating.

Toppings
Soy-Marinated Egg
Soft-boiled egg marinated in soy and mirin until the white is set and the yolk remains jammy. A classic ramen add-on.

Additional slices of the slow-braised pork belly chashu. Fatty, tender, and deeply seasoned.
¥200
Side Dishes
Green Onion and Chashu Rice Bowl
Small rice bowl topped with generous chashu slices, finely sliced green onion, and a drizzle of tare. A satisfying complement to any ramen bowl.
¥400
Wae-dama (Extra Noodle Ball)
