最近リフォームしたばかりなのか店内、トイレ共に綺麗。ただ、内装が凝っている割には机は普通の机であるし、とても小さい。あと、メニューがほとんど800円というのが気になった。最もマイナスだったのは大通りに面していてまあまあ良い場所にあるのに支払いが現金のみであったことである。

A ramen restaurant located near the Senso-ji Temple. In Asakusa, the birthplace of Japanese ramen, Yoroiya's owner creates good, old-fashioned ramen with a dedication to quality and flavor. The Japanese-style shoyu (soy sauce) ramen is made with a Japanese-style broth created from a chicken and pork base with konbu kelp, katsuobushi bonito flakes, and niboshi dried sardines and accented with a touch of yuzu. Also recommended are the zaru ramen, specially made flat noodles served in a dashi broth with the added depth of seafood and soy sauce; and the Japanese-style gyoza pot stickers, stuffed with chicken meat and made without garlic. Yoroiya also offers limited time dishes, ensuring there's always something new to enjoy here.

On our last day in Tokyo we wanted a final bowl of Ramen and this little restaurant gave us the best. Yes, its busy but you shouldnt have to wait too long even at the busiest time.

Asakusa Umezono Asakusa Main Store

Tokyo Taito-ku Asakusa 1-31-12

This long-established store has passed down its tradition as a specialty store for sweets such as awazenzai (steamed millet and rice cake with strained bean paste) since its establishment in 1854. The tea house started in a corner of Umezonoin Temple, and the name Umezono is derived from this. Umezono is distinctive for using glutinous millet instead of foxtail millet for the rice cakes in their awazenzai. The flavor combines the subtle bitterness of the millet and the sweetness of the sweetened bean paste for a classic Asakusa specialty that remains unchanged. Besides cafe menu items such as oshiruko (sweet red bean soup) and anmitsu (desert with agar-agar, fruit, sweet red bean paste, etc.), it also sells mame daifuku (bean rice cake) and kintsuba (sweet red bean paste wrapped in thin flour dough).

This dessert stop was recommended to us and near our ryokan so we stopped by. There is no English menu so we basically had to look outside at the replica food display and point. You had to pay first...

Tokyo Areas

The setting of countless iconic movie scenes and the inspiration for songs, poetry, and literature worldwide, Tokyo barely requires an introduction. It’s hard for the kaleidoscopic neon lights, wacky pop culture, and some of the world’s tallest structures not to instill excitement in any first-time visitor to Tokyo, whether you’re in the very center of the hustle and bustle in Shinjuku or Shibuya or looking in from the quieter suburbs.
