Ramen Jiro Sengawa

The bowl

This is Jiro-style ramen: thick noodles in a pork and soy-sauce soup, topped with pork and vegetables. Free extras are requested with a 'call'—garlic (ninniku), vegetables (yasai), back fat (abura) and extra seasoning (karame).

How to order

Buy your meal ticket from the machine before joining the queue. The Tabelog menu (updated 2022, prices may have changed) lists a half (fewer noodles), the regular ramen, buta-iri (extra pork) and large sizes. When the staff ask, say which toppings you want, e.g. 'ninniku yasai'; portions are large, so the half is the safer first order.
