SAKURADAI: (CLOSED) Hagan Ramen for a limited time Shrimp Garlic Soupless Ramen (abura-soba)! Only 200grams for me!! 300 grams free upgrade!

I was once neighbors with Hagan and always ended up here, Jiro Ramen or maybe Ramen Dai down at the next station but randomly in Sakuradai Station and noticed a limited time Shrimp Garlic Soupless ramen for 750yen!  I had give it a try.

You can get either 200 or 300 grams for 750yen.... I'm a 250gram kinda guy but I knew I'd be stuffed with 300... thus 200 for me!

Red and Black pepper toppings.

Grilled Pork



Very chunky chewy noodles.


And when you are just about done pick up the thermos called "soup wari" and pour it into the remaining noodles and soup.  This will mellow out the strong soupless ramen flavor.

NISHI AZABU: Kaotan Ramen in this old run down shack... but it sure was a comfy place.

I've frequently passed by this little shack of a ramen shop on my way from Aoyama to Nishi Azabu but never ventured inside.  This night a friend of mine said we had to check it out.

Highly ranked on Tabelog!


Can beers!







I got the shoyu based ramen

Friend ordered the Miso-Ramen.




It was such a nice experience having ramen here... there are really no stations near by so I think its more word of mouth and a local crowd here.  When we left there were elderly people and families eating ramen.
