7 SECRET & UNIQUE Tokyo RAMEN Shops!

[@flipwidmann]

Please keep up the work on the brilliant videos and (secret) tips. Although we've been to Tokyo a few times, thanks to you we already have new things on our list for our trip this summer! But with all these great tips you give in your videos you should make a google map with the locations :) I'm starting to lose track of what's where so I can plan :)

[@harblife]

Thank you so so much for your contribution! I LOVE seeing comments like this! I love learning new things about Tokyo, and enjoy sharing it so people can plan some new things to do, rather than the typical tourist spots in Tokyo ! :) For the google maps idea, I actually have a plan for that, so stick around for one of my videos that will be dropping soon :). Also, feel free to hit me up on either Discord or the comments! I would be happy to help you out as you continue to plan you trip to Japan this summer! Thanks again!

[@hardeylim]

You're always clutch with these lists! Thank you

[@harblife]

Thanks so much for the kind words man. I have a new video dropping soon I hope you will like it!

[@Death_Bounty]

Dude if you knew how much I love Ramen!!! Spot on video keep up the great job!!!

[@harblife]

Thanks man! Are you here yet??

[@Death_Bounty]

@@harblife We had got there on May 8th and just got home yesterday I'm sorry I missed you dude!! We were so busy and enjoyed ourselves 100% and definitely enjoyed some of the places you recommended!!

[@gaiasmile]

In less than two weeks I will be visiting Tokyo for the first time with three of my friends. Thank you so much for all your videos, we can't wait to discover some of the places you recommend. May I ask if you have any advice for places where to sing karaoke?? Thanks a lot

[@harblife]

I am so glad I could help plan your trip in Japan!!! Best Karaoke would be "KaraokeKan" and "Maneki Neko Karaoke" and "Big Echo" If you google map any of those, you will find some good spots to sing the night away!

Great video !

[@unebonnevie]

Nice ramen shops!

[@harblife]

Thank you!

[@bluearmy7690]

I’m hungry bro. Thank you!

[@harblife]

Don't worry I have another video coming out in a couple hours and it will make you more hungry!

[@bluearmy7690]

@@harblife thanks mate!

[@revsitup]

In 2 weeks, I will be visiting Tokyo for the first time. I have been watching as many of your videos as possible. They are amazing! Thank you for your time and sharing. Looking forward to trying some of your suggestions.

[@harblife]

Thank you so much for the kind words! I have a new suggestion video coming out soon so I hope you will enjoy it!

[@m.lawrenceono1301]

Great video! So mouth watering.. Just curious though, what would you say are your top 'regular' pork ramen joints?

[@harblife]

Hmmmmm. It's hard to really mention on the comment page because they're all super local shops. If you join my discord, I could help give you more precise recommendations!

[@truc13]

Excellent recommendation! My wife and I really enjoy Ebisoba Ichigen. 😊

[@harblife]

Yes it is absolutely delicious! Do you have a specific ramen place you would like to share?

[@rastudillo0830]

Thanks for the list.. so Ichiran Ramen is not on the list? Weve been planning to eat here.. might be best to try the #1 store instead?

[@harblife]

These are all local stores. I didn't put any chains on it. Ichiran is ok, but you'd be better off finding a mom & pop ramen shop... like the ones in this video!

[@tobiascampbell2477]

Hey bro, just completed my first Japan/Tokyo trip with my gf and we followed your recommendation in terms of areas of Tokyo and went to Shimokitazawa. We visited Ten to Sen at Shimo and had brilliant ramen, probably the best of our 3 weeks in Japan. Thanks for the steer re Shimokitazawa and your videos generally which were very helpful in planning our trip. Wanted to recommend Ten to Sen as another place to get excellent ramen in Tokyo

[@harblife]

Hey man! I am so happy you enjoyed all the recommendations! Your positive feedback is the reason why I continue to make these videos! I will definitely give that place a try and you are also giving me a great idea for an upcoming video ! Thanks and I hope to hear from you again soon!

[@FollowTheSunAustralia]

I think this might be the only ramen list people need, after the pandemic all I ate was 🍜 on my first trip, couldn't get enough, so easy to find

[@jedirabiz]

Trying Afuri right now. I'll tell you what I think

[@harblife]

What did you think ??

[@driftertravels928]

So many great ramen places in Tokyo, we could do dozens of this type of list with all different restaurants :) My favourite is a tsukemen place in Shimbashi called Menya Sugo.

[@AlexAG-d4n]

I've been watching your videos and I love your style! I am glad I met you at SirchEz chat! :D I have many things listed for my visit in some weeks to Tokyo and Osaka, but I am lacking of one thing... any recomendation for a night out? Like a tourist fiendly club with good music (and cost worthy!)

[@harblife]

Ohhhh you're from Sirchez's Channel -- awesome!!! Hmmmm your best bet for clubbing would be Shibuya (TK Shibuya is decent), V2 at Roppongi, and maybe One Oak which is also in Roppongi. I would say as long as you are around Shibuya or Roppongi, you will find some decent clubs to party at . Hope this helps!

[@AlexAG-d4n]

@@harblife for sure it helps, thanks!

[@Feljo]

The pork from Kikanbo is soo good and is near Akihabara so you can go when you are there

[@ouradventerousdays]

Thanks for sharing. I am a ramen lover, so I will definitely try those ramen, especially the #1 one. I love shio and creamy soup base. We will be in Japan in Dec ❤

[@harblife]

Love to hear it! Let me know what you think when you finally have a taste of #1!

[@ouradventerousdays]

@@harblife will do. Thank you for the recommendation 😊

[@roquejo]

Mitsuyado Ramen? I just ate here last week.. they have it in our country outside Japan... I usually order either their Yuzu Tsukimen or Double Cheese Tsukimen. Have you tried Mutekiya in Ikebukuro near Ikebukuro station East exit? The line there is always long at all times.

[@harblife]

I actually have not! You are actually giving me a great idea for a new video. Thanks!

[@warren7838]

Thanks for the recommendations. Kiraku looks good but that egg is so hard boiled - I'm guessing it's supposed to be that way?

[@harblife]

Ya for sure I agree with you. It is a little hard, but the rest of the ramen was pretty good. I would say most ramen shops will want their egg to be more soft boiled. Let me know what you think when you actually go try it!

[@williamneidecker-gonzales]

I also went to kikanbo and got medium! Was not super spicy like I was expecting

[@mgollow]

When you get the spiciest level at kikanbo you also get a piece of rock candy. It’s my favourite ramen shop, before it became famous.

[@harblife]

Ohhh thanks for tip man. We need to hang out dude it's been too long!

[@justaguywholikespie8221]

Where can I find Kikanbo?

[@harblife]

Just google "Kikanbo Akihabara" on google maps. You'll find it no problem!

[@southcoastinventors6583]

If I ever get sick I want a bowl of 潮 ramen that chicken based ramen look like what the doctor ordered. Have you ever seen a dessert ramen ?

[@harblife]

Yes exactly! No I haven't actually. Where can I find that?

[@Kaffeetasse9]

Thanks for mentioning a vegan ramen option! :)

[@harblife]

Of course! I'll have more plans for that kind of content in the future!

[@antonidearthus4398]

Any ramen shop that has chicken or beef broth

[@fumeokid]

You didn’t finish the broth at your #1 rated Kamunabi…:)

[@harblife]

Hahahah I was so full from eating at all the other ramen places I am sorry! :) I'll be sure to finish the broth next time though!

Unique maybe, secret no! Ippudo? You're kidding.

[@sonny9054]

残念だけど全部普通のラーメン屋さんですね。観光客専門店を選んでるのでしょうか？

[@foryoutube9960]

is there an exact location? can‘t seem to find mitsuyado seimen

[@harblife]

If you google map it in ikebukuro station, you'll find it!
