This is my favorite ramen shop that I always visit for my first meal before heading to my accommodation whenever I come to Tokyo. I had really delicious meals here even as recently as this past January. However, today's meal was very disappointing. In particular, the clams had a strong fishy taste, and the chicken topping also had an unpleasant odor. Even after finishing the meal, the fishy and bad aftertaste lingered in my mouth, which was disappointing. I noticed other people dining nearby were also leaving a lot of food, so I think you need to conduct a thorough check of everything. I don't think I'll be visiting again for the time being. T_T

I did an 'open run' and managed to get in third because the timing was perfect. The taste was a bit ambiguous...? It wasn't bad, but I don't know how to describe it... The noodles were unusually hard. It wasn't a soggy noodle style, but they had a buckwheat or grain-like flavor. I liked that the clams and other ingredients were generally large, but as soon as I received the food, I saw a small fly floating in the broth... When I mentioned it, they apologized and quickly remade it for me. It was a bit frustrating having to wait alone while everyone else was already eating...
