After leaving TeamLab Planets, we headed back uptown and were starving since we hadn't eaten anything but an onigiri on the Shinkansen in the morning. We were around Yurakucho Station looking for a place to eat that was open at 3:00PM (a lot of Japanese restaurants close between lunch and dinner hours) and was relatively cheap. We happened upon an izakaya (of course) called Tori Ichizu Yurakucho whose menu looked very promising.
Chicken paitan ramen
Gyoza
Yakitori
And promising it was, because it was there that I had maybe one of the most delicious bowls of ramen I've ever had. I had never tried chicken paitan ramen before, but it's incredible — the broth is creamy, rich, ultra-flavourful, and the noodles have the perfect chewy thickness — and costs only ¥649 (literally cheaper than a McChicken). The gyoza (with plenty of pork inside thin, delightfully crispy skins) and yakitori (nicely charred, plump, and juicy pieces of chicken on skewers) were also excellent, but this chicken paitan ramen is just... revolutionary.
