Craving something spicy? Then you've come to the right place! That's exactly how I was feeling when I first stepped foot in Mouko Tanmen Nakamoto. I was craving a spicy ramen and I obviously didn't know what I was getting myself into. The signature Mouko Tanmen is a tame 3 out of 5 stars on the spicy meter, but it still kicked my a**. The best part about this ramen is that it's not just spicy. It had a great texture, excellent flavor, and the noodles were thick and filling. If you're feeling brave, feel free to give the 5 star Hokkyoku Ramen a try. But don't blame me if you can't wake up in the morning.
From Ikebukuro Station take the West (西) exit and head west on the main street. At the very next big intersection make a left and it'll be in a small street on your right. If you see arches that say グルメ道 (Gourmet Street) then you're in the right place. Walk up the stairs, order from the ticket machine, then wait for someone to point you to a seat. Everyone gets an individual packet of tissues, but it may be wise to bring your own towel.

Hi Keizo,
ReplyDeleteHow did the spiciness compare to Orochon's spicy level? (I'm sure Mouko was far tastier :)
