Hyperlocal Tokyo

I was devastated when my phone broke during my recent trip back home, missing out on the chance to try the famous tsukemen (dipping noodles) I had been looking forward to. But to my surprise, I found it at the airport! Even though I wasn't particularly hungry, I couldn't resist joining the queue. It was dinner time on July 18th, so there was a long line of foreign tourists. The thick, chewy noodles were perfectly coated in the rich, flavorful broth. The soup was definitely something foreigners would enjoy. Is it normal for tsukemen to have a lukewarm broth? I would have loved it even more if the soup was a bit warmer. Maybe because they were busy, the person serving the noodles seemed a bit careless, and the egg was slightly cracked, which was a bit of a visual disappointment. The food court was packed during dinner time, so if you're planning to eat here, it's best to secure a seat first before ordering your ramen. There weren't any standing areas either. By the way, if you need to wash your hands before eating, there's a sink in the food court, just walk towards the opposite direction of Rokurinsha.

【Rokurinsha Haneda Airport Store】 Early morning ramen before departing for international flights 🖤 This is a meal after going through the departure procedures at Haneda Airport's International Terminal. It was early in the morning, so luckily there wasn't much of a line. ・Tsukemen (Dipping Noodles) ¥950 Although there are significant restrictions compared to regular stores within the airport, the quality is unbelievable for a food court setting! The thick dipping broth is packed with seafood flavor, and the thick noodles are perfect for slurping. Delicious! ❤️ The dipping broth cools down quickly, so I ate it in a hurry. Rokurinsha, where you can eat without waiting in line, is a hidden gem ✨

A ramen shop located within the restricted area of Haneda Airport's International Terminal, a godsend for overseas residents. It's open 24 hours, so you can enjoy delicious ramen whether it's early morning or late at night. While the taste is good, it's more about experiencing the essence of Japan.

The joy of having ramen before departing for an international flight! I had tsukemen last time, but this time I had ramen. It was delicious. The gyoza 🥟 were also large and satisfying, but it was a shame there was no rice 😢.

It was an early morning flight, so it was very helpful to be able to have breakfast so early. I ordered the special tsukemen (large), which cost 1,300 yen. For an airport, this price is very reasonable. It takes 15-20 minutes to prepare, but it's worth the wait. The taste was the same as the stores in the city. If you need more fish powder, there are small packets available at the pickup counter. There is also a soup for dilution at the pickup counter. The soup for dilution was also well-seasoned with broth, which was great. Thank you for the meal. Thank you.
