"The Japanese employ a lot of dried and smoked fish in their cuisine, and many tsukemen shops garnish their soup with a sheet of nori and a spoonful of fish powder. With its consistently delicious broth and perfectly chewy noodles, Fuunji is a no-brainer."
"Fuunji’s Tsukemen is disgustingly-delicious (sorry these are the first words that came to my mind when I was having it). Its layered flavours of rich chicken broth and smoky fish powder was revolutionary good, grabbing you to just focus on its unique taste."
"One stands out though, and when you finally make it inside Fuunji, you'll see why it is considered a top spot for tsukemen in Tokyo. Be sure to order the tsukemen here (Y800). The ramen on the menu is good, but the tsukemen is where it's at."
"But not as much as I loved the tsukemen he prepared for me. I can only imagine how long the simmering process involved to bring this chicken and fish broth to its level of richness and depth. So many layers of fish flavors clung to each fat strand of the chewy, bouncy noodle. So much sensuality in every slurp."
"I've had tsukemen here in Manila, but Fuunji's version is something different. The broth was thick, creamy and rich - which was great. Can't deny the fact that it's really flavorful though."
"All in all I would say Fuunji is worth all the hassle. It was actually my first Tsukemen in Tokyo and all I can say is I will never look at Tsukemen the same way again."
"It’s like the essence of ramen deconstructed and intensified. The soup is extra thick, way too strong to be sipped alone. The sweetness is super sweet, the sourness super sour. The tangy kick from the bonito is a flavor that simply must be experienced."
"Since there are hundreds of noodle shops around Japan, here are some of the best where one can try a delicious serving of tsukemen. First is Fuunji which located just near the Shinjuku station that has a tasty and deeply rich broth and perfectly cooked noodles."
"If you come here, I definitely recommend you to try their famous tokusei tsukemen first."
