Ramen Street

If you have not ordered ramen noodles from a vending machine then you have not experienced the real Tokyo yet! No, it is a not a dry bag of ramen but a piping hot and usually overflowing but oh so satisfying bowl of fresh homemade ramen noodles. From different types of noodles and soups to a vast variety of customizable ingredients including pork, chicken, beef, egg, tofu, and vegetables; after eating ramen noodles in Japan you will like eating the way they taste back home.

There are around a dozen different ramen joints that make up Ramen Street, each with their own recipes and house specials as well as loyal fans. However, the ordering process remains the same at each place: order via vending machine and then wait in the queue for soup delivery. Located within Tokyo Station, this is one place that you can pass by every day and still keep trying different (and delicious) soups. Select your order from a vending machine and then wait in queue for your bowl, including special house soups that a particular shop is known for.
Recommended dish: There are so many options here that it is impossible to name just one; try something different every time.
