Shio Ramen Senmon Hirugao Tokyo Station
Natural Ingredients, Carefully Crafted Shio Ramen from Kannana-dori Avenue’s Celebrated Setagaya.
Shio Ramen Senmon Hirugao Tokyo Station is located on Tokyo Ramen Street. It specializes in shio ramen, made with a salt-seasoned broth, and is run by Setagaya, a famous ramen shop on Kannana-dori Avenue known for its queues. Each bowl draws its savory flavor entirely from natural ingredients, without artificial flavor enhancers.
The signature dish is Shio Ramen. Its soup starts with a natural stock made using whole Shingen chickens, to which a salt-based seasoning sauce made with natural sea salt from Vietnam, white soy sauce, and honkarebushi (aged, dried bonito) is added. The thin, house-made noodles are made with 100% Hokkaido-grown wheat. They have a supple texture and pair well with the soup. Toppings include roast pork prepared over two days, shio-tama (eggs marinated in a special sauce), and aosa seaweed. Other variations include Shiotama Ramen and Shio Ramen with Shrimp Wontons.
An illuminated sign and a white doorway curtain bearing the character for “salt” mark the entrance. The interior, lined with counter seats, has a relaxing atmosphere. It offers a place to take your time and savor a bowl while still inside Tokyo Station.
