02 · The bowls
Pork bone broth emulsified for eighteen hours, finished with mayu we burn in sesame oil until it goes jet black.
Chicken and kombu stock you can read a ticket through, salted with Okinawan sea salt and a twist of yuzu peel.
Three-year red miso whisked into the bone broth, ground pork, sansho and a chilli oil that hums rather than bites.
Chilled thick noodles beside a reduced, almost syrupy dipping broth. When you are done, we top it up with dashi to drink.
03 · How the counter runs
We opened in a former U-Bahn kiosk in 2019 with one burner and a borrowed stockpot. The room got bigger. The rules did not.
Order at the vending machine by the door, hand the ticket over the counter. No menus on the bar, nothing between you and the pot.
Every bowl leaves the pass ninety seconds after the noodles hit the water. Fourteen seats turn every twenty-five minutes, all night.
When the paper lantern over the door turns purple, the last pot is open. When it goes dark, the broth is gone until tomorrow.

One message a night, only when the lantern turns purple. Reply STOP and the lantern stays on without you.
