麺や いま村

A new shop serving up creamy toripaitan soup? I’m there!

Imamura is located just around the block from Tsuta, the Michelin starred shop in Sugamo. And while Tsuta is in a rather shady neighborhood, across the street from some short-rest love hotels, Imamura is right in the middle of a brothel alley.

Just outside the window is one of the many shops. 3000 yen to enter.

Well, for less than a third of that price, you can get a solid bowl of creamy chicken soup ramen, served with some freshly grilled chicken chashu.  The shop master, Imamura-san, is there shaking noodles, serving soup, and manning the grill.

The bowl here is spiked with niboshi, dried baby sardines that add a smoky kick to the mix, and a lot of umami.

Awesome egg!

It’s a decent bowl on Tokyo’s north side. Check it out if you are, ummm, in the neighborhood.
