Chinese Ramen Yoshu-Shonin Shibuya Center Street — Restaurant in Tokyo

Visited this restroom for a quick lunch on my holiday. It’s pretty popular with Chinese customers (many were speaking in Mandarin), so the food seemed pretty authentic.

We were hungry as usual and ordered the following: Tan tan noodles - soup was fabulous and borderline spicy. Ingredients were flavourful and the meat was not hard. Mapo tofu - really spicy and went well with rice, might be a bit salty for some as I found it really strong in taste. But still acceptable Sho long po - very juicy but I found the skin to be thicker than expected. Not sure if this was a local preference cos it’s not the only place we found the skin to be thick. The meat was very delicious :) Stir fried pork - more on the saltier side, and there’s more scallion and chili than the pork. Yoshu fried rice - this was pretty nice, and enhanced with the Mapo tofu sauce

In all it’s still a pretty go to place for Chinese food. It was indeed quite cramped as what some reviewers have mentioned, so if this is not something you like, please take note to go...

Environment wise, floor was a bit oily though.

Overall, I like their ramen and was glad I...

Best sour&spicy ramen!! The balance between sour and spicy is awesome. Not too spicy as well, so you can add more chilli powder if you need. Free green tea refill drink.

Another recommended dish is the fried rice. It is awesome, the egg is very fluffy and the taste is authentic.

The place is a bit small and it is quite packed inside, but no waiting line when...
