Their especially springy medium-thick noodles go well with the rich soy sauce and sesame oil-based sauce. Adding the house vinegar and chili oil to taste whet\u2019s the appetite and creates a wonderful smell. You can also add Tokyo Menchintei\u2019s garlic sauce or extra spicy &#8220;doro togarashi&#8221; (thick red pepper sauce) for a different flavor. Interestingly, the current manager was actually a regular customer ten years ago. Super sizing is free and the 4-tama &#8220;oni-mori&#8221; (&#8220;demon-size helping&#8221;) is just \u00a51,000. Thanks to its lack of broth, abura soba is actually lower in calories than ramen. It\u2019s perfect for health-conscious people.<\/p>\n<table class=\"table table-colored-tbhd\" border=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th style=\"width: 25%;\">Name<\/th>\n<td>Tokyo Menchintei Honpo \u2013 Nishiwaseda location<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Address<\/th>\n<td>2-3-25 Nishiwaseda, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Phone<\/th>\n<td>03-5292-9711<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Hours<\/th>\n<td>Mon.\u2013Sat. 11:00 a.m.\u20133:00 a.m.<br \/>\nSun.\/hol. 11:00 a.m.\u201312:00 a.m.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Featured menu item<\/th>\n<td>Abura soba<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Price<\/th>\n<td>\u00a5600 (tax incl.)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tokyo Menchintei Honpo Abura soba \u2013 a new Tokyo signature dish?
