When it comes to Tori Paitan Ramen (鶏白湯ラーメン), the name Ginza Kagari is the shop that most often comes to mind. Despite being located in a back-alley, this unassuming shop is a Michelin Bib Gourmand winner, and for good reason. Each sip of the soup is rich and creamy, from the long hours that the chicken has been gently boiled down in it, which is gently accented by the fragrance of truffle added atop it. Without a doubt, the refined, deep, and rich tastes of the soup is what won this humble stall a Michelin Bib Gourmand award, and now has multiple branches across Japan.
Kaitenzushi Nemuro Hanamaru is one of Tokyo's best kaitenzushi (回転寿司, Conveyor Belt Sushi) restaurants, with some of the best quality sushi (寿司) that you can get, together with the fun and excitement of having food rotating about on the conveyor belt. Real conveyor belt sushi chains have become rarer in Japan, after COVID-19 and the "sushi terrorism" incident in 2022. Nemuro Hanamaru continues to embrace their love for conveyor belt sushi, not just with a constantly rotating set of sushi on the belt, but also with the liveliness that comes from specials that the staff would shout out, and also ordering directly from the chef.
