Tokyo: Roppongi Noodle Shop

I have been searching for a noodle shop that serves noodles in the same style as Ramen Bayashi in Narita Town. I've found a shop here that comes close, if not surpasses the noodles served at the old haunt. I have no idea what the official name of the shop is.

On the north side of Roppongi Dori, east of the main intersection, you'll see a Daily convenience mart, and then to the right, a Yoshinoya fast food restaurant. Take the stairs below the Yoshinoya, and you'll arrive at this noodle shop. There is seating for about 15.

There is a vending machine around the corner of the stairs. If you have not used a Tokyo restaurant vending machine, you will have to learn at some point. After deciding what you want and the price, you input your money and select the item. It won't allow you to select an item that is priced more than you've inputted. You'll get a little ticket printed below, and when you sit down, you give the ticket to the chef.

Great Noodles! Spice 'em up to your liking...

Draft Beers were about 300Y as I recall...



Me & the Chef go way back.
