About this place
One of the pleasures of Fujimaru Ramen’s salt tsukemen is how its flavour develops over the course of the meal: try it as it is, then add some of the house-made “edible shrimp chilli” from the table. Diners who have tried the dish describe a mellow dipping broth with savoury chicken notes, paired with springy, medium-thick noodles. Some say that coating the noodles with the chilli before dipping them brings out the shrimp’s flavour and a gentle heat. Rather than adding a lot at once, you might try it a little at a time and adjust to taste.
Salt tsukemen comes in small, medium and large sizes, as does soy sauce tsukemen; spicy tsukemen is another option. Some diners favour the salt version, while others have tried the soy sauce one to compare the two. There is also hot soy sauce ramen or chicken salt ramen if you would rather have a bowl of ramen than dipping noodles.
Bottled beer and oolong tea highballs are on the menu to accompany your meal, and the restaurant can be visited for lunch or dinner.
