めん処 十二社

A few doors down from the coin laundry I use, on a side street next to the local Dominos Pizza delivery center, is Juniso.

This could be a possible contender for a consistent late-night bowl; if they were only open late.

Everything was solid, nothing stood out. The atmosphere was that of your average just-off-the-main-road ramen shop in Japan.

It is a funky spot, Nishi-Shinjuku-4-Chome. Technically, it is the closest residential hood to the famous skyscraper district (unless you count the massive homeless population in nearby Chuo Park). But despite what I imagine would be a flashy part of town, everything here is positively ancient. Crumbling old houses, 30 year old noodle shops, I even found a well for getting ground water.

Yep, this is my home.
