About

Harukiya opened in Ogikubo in 1949, in the hungry years after the war, and is one of the few shops from that era still cooking the same bowl. Its chuka soba is the template for 'Ogikubo ramen': a clear, gently sweet soy broth built on chicken bones and dried sardines (niboshi), wavy medium noodles made upstairs in the shop's own noodle room, and a slice of chashu, menma and nori. When ramen-mania swept Japan in the 1980s and TV crews crowned Ogikubo a ramen town, Harukiya was the shop everyone queued for, and it still draws a steady line of locals and pilgrims. The wantanmen, loaded with silky pork dumplings, is the regulars' upgrade. Expect a no-nonsense counter-and-table room just off Ome-kaido, quick service and a bowl that tastes like Showa-era Tokyo.
