銀座 いし井 五反田店 — Restaurant in Tokyo

If you are looking for phenomenal Ramen/Tsukemen experience, this is the spot to add to your agenda. For those who loves Ramen, but has not had Tsukemen, Tsukemen is the new generation of Ramen where the noodles are served in separate bowl from the tasty soup. You simply take few noodles and dip them in the hot thick soup to eat, so the noodles never gets soggy as you do with regular Ramen. This style of Ramen are not yet common in the U.S., but I will assure you, it's coming, and coming big for sure. Tsukemen at this restaurant is called "Choo-kah Say-Lo" and is my go to here, but for those looking for standard Ramen with noodles in soup, they got you covered too!

When you walk in the classy restaurant, you will be seated at L shaped long wooden counter surrounding the kitchen where you will be able to watch chefs working the magic as you wait for your noodles that are very smooth, but thick enough for the soup to cling to the noodles.

In front of you, you will see various sauces and special chili spice called "Kuro Shichimi" for you to change flavors as you progress through the dish, so you never get tired of the same ol flavors. Step 1 - Eat 'em straight dipping noodles in soup to enjoy the thick soup taken over 10 hours from Branded Japanese Chicken called "Hinai Jidori" and dozens of veggies and other natural ingredients. (Thick n Tasty) Step 2 - after 1/3 or half way through, squeeze the Yuzu (fruity Japanese lime?) over noodles, and dip in same soup. (Very Refreshing) Step 3 - when you get 2/3 or 3/4 through the noodles, take the "Kuro Shichimi" (black chili spice) from Gion Kyoto in bamboo container in front of you to add kick to the now refreshing noodles to add some ZING! (Spicy) Step 4 - When your noodles are all gone, since Tsukemen Soup is served thick don't try to drink them straight, ask the chef for "Soup Wah-Lee" and hand 'em the soup bowl. lukewarm soup comes back nice and hot with added hot soup stock for you to enjoy the remaining soup. (Warming) Step 5 (optional) - if the soup is still thick to drink, take the vinegar in front of you in clear bottle and add about a tea spoon (or two) in the soup to finish off the meal. (Super Refreshing)

As an Ramen/Tsukemen enthusiast, I highly recommend this shop for you to stop by on the way or back from Tokyo, Shibuya, Shinjuku, Harajuku, or Akihabara, as the Tokyo's main Loop Train "Yamanote Line" goes through Gotanda Station close to the restaurant. Yamanote Line will take you to all of the major stations mentioned above without all the hustle of difficult...

☆ツルモチ麺！万人受けするライト魚介豚骨つけ麺！ԅ(¯﹃¯ԅ)　　（口コミ1684軒目）

つけ麺はつけ麺大王という幼少の思い出だった小生。( ´_ゝ`)

しかしその頃、こちらの方面ではつけ麺に市民権は無く、「なんぞそれ？(`Д´)σ」という食べ物だったのである。 (｀_´)

大勝軒本店が建て直す前にお伺いして、始めてつけ麺を食べたが気持ちが付いていけず、やはりラーメンのほうが好きだったというあの頃。( ≖ᴥ≖​)

そこでつけ麺が市民権獲得を一気に通り越してブームになったのが六厘舎の登場と記憶している。

百反通りの本店で数時間並んで食べたモンなぁ…。( ｡ớ ₃ờ)ھ

その六厘舎が作り上げたのが濃厚魚介豚骨つけ麺であり、以前どこかのラーメン店主が「あれを創り出したのはスゴイことですョ」と仰っていたのが心に残っている。

それ以来、時々つけ麺を食べるのだがどこも似たような味ばかり。( º言º)

それでも思い出すと欲するのがこの濃厚魚介豚骨つけ麺のすごいトコ。

閑話休題。( 'ω')

良く前を通るので機会があればお伺いしてみようとは思っていたこちらのお店。

TVであのGacktさんが紹介していたのを拝見。並んでいなかったのでせっかくなのでとお伺い。 =͟͟͞͞ ( ◜°⌑°)◜

夕方なら並び無く入れたが、すぐに混んできた。さすがの影響力。Σ(ﾟДﾟ)

中華せいろ950円をお願い。(´ω` )/ ﾊｲ

やってきたつけ麺、スープ側は具が沈んでいるようで見た目は少し寂しいカナ。

まず麺のみ一口すすると、みずみずしい口当たりで柔らか目のモチモチとした食感。 これはつけ麺にはあまり無い感じのもの。

つけ汁は魚介豚骨だがかなりライトで優しげな口当たり。

普段食べる魚介豚骨のつけ麺は濃厚かつ味濃い目なので、こちらのはアッサリとした上品なもの。 ライトな口当たりなのでスイスイと食べられてしまい、あっという間に麺が減っていく。

具のメンマはしっかりと塩気ありで、どっちかというとスープよりメンマのほうが味が濃いくらい。

途中で原了郭の黒七味があるので味変してゴチソーさま。( ˘人˘...
