Just a 1-minute walk from the Park Exit of Kichijoji Station, Tsukemen Enji Kichijoji Sohonten is widely known for its "vegepota" tsukemen, which blends pork bone and seafood broth with vegetable paste. The rich, thick dipping soup never feels heavy on the palate and is often praised for being easy to finish down to the last drop. The signature noodles are extra-thick wheat germ noodles with the firm bite of soba and a rich wheat aroma, though guests also enjoy choosing from several options such as chewy noodles or domestic wheat noodles. The spicy tsukemen allows diners to choose heat levels up to very spicy and extremely spicy, earning praise for allowing the underlying vegepota sweetness and dashi depth to shine through. With thickly sliced, melt-in-your-mouth chashu pork, seasoned soft-boiled eggs infused with dashi, and seafood dashi soup-wari available, the thoughtful offer of free dipping soup refills is another welcomed touch. Though lines form during lunch at this cozy shop with only 13 counter seats, service is widely regarded as prompt, making it an easy stop even for solo diners.
