Picks by 정준하하하 in Tokyo
4 places 정준하하하 went to in Tokyo — what they said, and what to watch out for.
- 츠케멘 야스베에 아카사카점 — 정준하하하
He raved about the broth, which bursts with umami without being too salty, and said the way they sprinkle bonito powder over the noodles and wrap the chashu in nori is unmatched by any other shop.
Heads up: There are four noodle portion sizes—small (180g), regular (220g), large (330g), and extra large (440g)—all priced the same, and even the regular size is said to be as filling as a large jjajangmyeon, making the extra large fit for competitive eaters. The nori topping isn't included by default and must be ordered separately. - 中国ラーメン揚州商人 新橋店 — 정준하하하
He said the broth is smooth and rich with a lively tang from black vinegar, making it perfect for curing a hangover, and the noodles are well-made too.
Heads up: There are two versions, regular and premium, and he noted the regular one has a more pronounced tanginess that feels truer to authentic suan la tang. - 츠케멘 야스베에 시부야점 — 정준하하하
He mentioned this is his usual go-to spot.
Heads up: It's said to be so packed that you have to wait in line for quite a while. - 오 바카날 — 정준하하하
He praised the great terrace view and the iced coffee with its distinctly Japanese blend, perfect for sipping in the cool weather.
Heads up: Lots of sparrows gather on the terrace, and if you order bread, they'll swoop right in.
