EBISU: Tsukumo 99 Tonkotsu Ramen... Parmesan cheesy ramen and gyoza!

When in Ebisu Tsukumo "99" Ramen is always a must! 

The most popular ramen is the Cheese Ramen... lots of other options too.

http://www.tukumo.com/site/menu.html

Recommended side dishes... 

Free seasoned bean sprouts "moyashi"

There it is!  Hefty layer of grated Parmesan cheese~.  Its just a friendly creamy tonkotsu soup and cheese mellows out the soup even more.  Its a fun change and I've only seen this style of ramen at Tsukumo.

Gyoza... think this was 450yen... a bit pricey. 

Being Ebisu there is a nice young 20's late night crowd... lots of ladies.

EBISU: Falafel Brothers has arrived in Ebisu! Neighbors Tsukumo Ramen... great BGM with a artistic cozy interior.

A little while ago I noticed Falafel Brothers under construction... and then just happened to have a client meeting nearby.  Dragged out my Japanese colleague who had no idea what falafel or hummus was.

Menu consists of a slight maze to complete your order.  Went for the Large 1,300 yen Falafel lunch set with freshly made potato wedges and a drink.

Drinks come in a little jar.

They will call your name to select among the many toppings..

Gotta get Hummus for sure!  Had a choice of 3 due to my large falafel order.

Then select your special sauce... Spicy-hini is all me.

There we go... looked alot like the Roppongi version but not as much hummus.  There are a whole bunch of falafel balls in this thing so it will get you stuffed.

So tempted to order brownies but I get a whole brownie mix in the US for only 1-2 dollars... wish I had an oven at home.

Huge windows for a little people watching.

Free wireless chargers on the table.

Hats as lamp shades.

Overall if you are a fan of Falafel this is your spot. Will have to try out their more hummus focused dishes... Not too bad.  Oh the Roppongi Chef is now working here.

Don't forget to try Tsukumo Ramen next door too!  https://tokyobelly.blogspot.com/search?q=tsukumo

EBISU: Tsukumo "99" Ramen... sold out of the Hokkaido Cheese~

 

I had been out for nearly 12hrs... Wedding chapel at 3pm, Grand Hyatt Tokyo reception dinner from 4-7:45pm, after party for bride/grooms friends from 8-11pm... then a final bar for those still left standing til 3am... what a loooong day.

Decided to head over to try some Tonkotsu ramen topped with Hokkaido Cheese but it was sold out!  Oh well....  http://www.tukumo.com/topping/9.html

Free toppings...

Very spicy seasoned bean sprouts

No smorking!  Most excellent... The yellow sign lists options that will alter the standard ramen if you like.  Hard//Soft noodles, Heavy flavored soup or light and alot or a little fatty pork oil.

Only 650yen and hit the spot... 

3:30am and I was just too tired.  The staff is extremely friendly and it had been a very long time since my last visit but they remembered me... 

If you are in Ebisu and want some standard ramen that will please everyone then give Tsukumo a try!  Friendly staff... budget ramen... can't go wrong.
