RYOGOKU: Komugi-Ya Ramen... Japan's friendliest grandma waitress with possible Ozeki Konishiki spotting!

Ramen Komugi-Ya ranked #2 in Ryogoku (Sumo-Town)... about 3 minutes from Oedo-line Ryogoku station.

Shoyu ramen starts at 650yen and Miso at 800yen.

Kimchee bean sprouts for free... you can ask for seconds.

Counter and Table seating. We arrived about 1:30pm and it was a full house.  Just lucky to sit at a table for four.

Went for the Osusume (Recommended) Negi-Miso Ramen.   If you like a thick, flavorful, filling ramen then this is for you.  It will definitely leave you stuffed.  I'd suggest adding the Kimchee Beansprouts (Moyashi) to the ramen for a slight kick.

Noodles were slightly chewy.  

There were posters of Konishiki's CD releases all over the shop.  Seems the ramen chef is very good friends with the former Ozeki Konishiki and he occasionally stops by.  The very sweet grandma waitress mentioned he is having his home in Japan renewed in the area... a bit of info she wanted to share. 

A gift from grandma... small flyer for Konishiki's Doskoi Dance CD.
