IKEBUKURO: Yasube... Massive Oomori Tsukemen for only 760yen... it was a monster 440 grams!

Nice bench seat waiting area...

Waiting for a spot for 4 people...

The Chef at Work!

With the influence of a little beer and my love for cost performance I in my pride and glory went for the largest available portion for 760yen.... the DAI tsukemen!  There are 4 levels... small, regular, medium and large.  Please refrain from the Large as I needed my friend to help me out with the noodles.

I always prefer "Atsumori"... hot noodles.  But there is a great al'dente'ness to the regular noodles that are immediately washed with cold water to keep its texture.

Normal size versus Dai 440 grams... it was visibly a huge difference.
