Taishoken Fuchinobe-ten (大勝軒 淵野辺店)

Note on lineage: the famous “大勝軒” (Taishoken) name traces to two separate historical roots — the Higashi-Ikebukuro Taishoken of the late Kazuo Yamagishi, widely credited with popularizing tsukemen, and the older Eifukucho (永福町) Taishoken lineage, known for its hot niboshi (dried sardine) shoyu ramen. Multiple independent sources researching this Fuchinobe branch identify it as part of the Eifukucho lineage, not a direct branch of the Higashi-Ikebukuro/tsukemen-originator Taishoken. Certified as a Tabelog Hyakumeiten 2025 (Kanagawa/Ramen) shop. Cash only — no credit cards, e-money, or QR payments accepted; no reservations.
