Located about a 4-minute walk from Higashi-Nakano Station, Kashiwagi is a small ramen specialty shop offering just 9 seats in total: 5 counter seats and one 4-person table. The signature dish is a soy sauce ramen combining clear pork broth with a dark soy sauce sauce base; despite its dark, black appearance, it delivers a sharp, clean bite with a deep, rich body. The salt ramen, layering seafood and shellfish aromas over savory pork, is often described as even more universally appealing. The low-hydration, medium-thin straight noodles have a satisfying, crisp bite, and notably, kaedama (extra noodles) — an extra serving of noodles for your remaining ramen broth — is available, which is rare for clear broth styles. Even with a soft-boiled seasoned egg with a runny yolk or a raw egg over rice added, meals stay around ¥1,000, and orders arrive quickly after purchasing a meal ticket. Operating only for lunch in a converted space with lingering Showa-era charm, it is an ideal spot for dining alone.
