Tsukemen at Kikanbou in Kanda
Yesterday, I went to the Kikanbou tsukemen restaurant in Kanda. Kikanbou’s specialty is the so-called kara-shibi miso ramen and tsukemen: It is possible to choose from 5 different levels of spice in the soup, for both kara (the regular heat) and shibi (numbing pepper, that delays the sensation of heat). The photo above and below has the 4th level for each spice. It is pretty hot!
