Latest update.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Get your blue tarps ready immediately! Tokyo's cherry blossoms are officially predicted to start opening on March 19th, with Full Bloom hitting peak around March 28th. This is significantly earlier than the historical average due to the unusually warm winter we've had. Consquently, spots like Ueno Park, Meguro River, and Chidorigafuchi will be packed much sooner than you think. Don't wait until April or you might miss the best pink clouds entirely.

Hunger warning.

The shop was recently renovated, but the soul of the ramen remains the same. It's a bit of a trek from central Tokyo, but true ramen heads know it is worth every minute of the train ride.
