You’ve just landed in Narita, you’re tired, probably famished, and have found yourself at the Tokyo Train Station.

You guide your static-flight-haired head towards Rokurinsha, but the queue makes you question if you have the stamina for this today.

Walk on instead, through the hubbub that is Tokyo Ramen Street and towards ORESHIKI.

You’ll see a smaller queue and one of the amazing machines that make ordering and service 200% more efficient, and I have attached a menu - incase you, like me, are super kiasu, and want to plan this in advance.

I ordered up a bowl of tsukemen with the works and shed a tear when I took my first bite.

Was this the best tsukemen I’ve had in my life? Probably YES.

Is this also the first thing I eat whenever I land in Tokyo? Also YES.

Beat the crazier queues, and give this place a solid shot. Then head to your room to catch up on that jetlag because you’re going to need some serious stamina to tour this sprawling city.
