Men-ya Inoichi Hanare

They have an at least 1 ramen per adult rule. This is important if you're coming with small eaters, as it limits your stomach space for other things (in reality i dont think theirnsides are worth ordering anyway)

Food:
Their spin on tantanmen. The same base but the flavour completely changes with the super fragrant peanut sauce as well as a strong sweetness to round out the flavours. There's grated ginger on top which not everyone likes, so be careful before mixing

I think it's alright but definitely not worth trying if you only can choose 1 bowl.

The system here is quite good. You come to queue and take a queue number then walk around Until the time they ask you to report. Long queue but they are efficient and the system is effective. 45mins queue including 30mins to walk around is more than reasonable for a Michelin guide place. This was a weekday dinner

With charsiu instead of aburi wagyu. The thinly sliced char siu was fine, nothing too special.

I have to say overall it's a decent place but definitely not a world changing one. However if you do come every aspect incl service was quite decent

White or black refers to the type of soy sauce. However it doesn't rlly matter, because the soy base is dashi and the dashi is really good. Quite deep and has body from the bonito

Noodles were on the softer side, but basically textbook. Wagyu is quite good, textbook aburi but otherwise nothing extraordinary

Everything was good, overall very satisfying bowl nothing too crazy

Shumai is the mushy kind. Not sure what else to say, that's a turnoff for me but grandparents liked it

Pear juice was just super sugary to me
