• Amazing vegan ramen noodles

T's Tantan quickly became a favourite on a recent trip to Japan. We had 4 meals there in between shooting to and from Tokyo including 1 breakfast, 2 lunches and 1 dinner. Seriously, the ramen noodles are amazing. The menu does not change so if you like what you had for dinner, you can also have it for breakfast :). This made it awesome for me as I absolutely loved it. Its located on "Keiyo Street" (it really is a food mall, not a street as such) inside Tokyo station - we accessed it mainly from the Yaesu Central Exit. You need a JR rail pass or a train ticket to access Keiyo Street. We found it a little tricky to find at first as Tokyo station is a labrynth to the uninitiated. After some help and much pointing and gesticulating from a kind and friendly station security person, we found Keiyo Street. Then we found T's Tantan. And then I found ramen heaven! I liked Set A which is a bowl of delicious mock meat on rice with a bowl of ramen noodles. Another cool thing is that there is no desert at T's Tantan. They focus on what they are good at with a streamlined menu. Why muck around when your ramen is this good? I am not a coffee drinker but really liked their coffee. It may have had something to do with the cold Tokyo weather and the awesome sugar syrup and soy milk served in cute little beer steins for ants... The vegetarian graphics and messages around the restaurant are a nice touch. As they say on the walls... smile + vegetables + health = smilevege = happiness. Couldn't have said it better myself. The service is friendly and fast. Whilst the staff speak minimal English, there is an English menu that the language challenged like myself can order from. Do yourself a favour: go to Tokyo and visit T's Tantan. It is sen-sa-tion-al!!
