Shibuya's Signless Ramen Shop🍜Weekday Lunch Only – Home of the Legendary Dry Dan Dan Noodles
Located in Shibuya's Shinsen area, this is my personal No.1 ramen shop that I've been visiting since 2018. A renowned shop with no sign, open only 2.5 hours on weekday lunches, run by the brother of legendary music producer Nujabes. Their signature Dry Dan Dan Noodles have a miraculous balance—spicy but not too spicy, with umami that never gets overwhelmed by the heat. The combo with Grilled Cheese Rice is absolutely amazing. English explanations are available throughout the restaurant, making it perfect for your first ramen experience. The premium article provides a complete photo guide from Shibuya Station to the shop, how to use the ticket machine, and tips for the best way to enjoy your meal.
