There's only one kind of adventure to be had in Shinjuku's famed Ni-Chome!
Delicious tsukemen . . . what were you thinking?
MJ knows what I'm talking about!
Fitting with the Ni-Chome theme, gachi is a hangover killer. Eat a bowl of this after drinking, and your body will be too concerned with processing all this fat to worry about the alcohol.
If you didn't know, Ni-Chome is the famed center of gay nightlife in Tokyo. According to some accounts, it has the highest concentration of gay bars per square meter in the world. It is also one of the cheapest places to drink in Tokyo. Many of the street-side bars offer all-you-can-drink deals for about the price of a bowl of ramen.
A bowl at Gachi is the perfect post-binge meal.
Yes, that is a bowl-sized piece of fried chicken. Very greasy, very juicy. My soberness on this occasion was a crutch, and it took some time to get that thing down.
Some nice free options to add to your bowl as well. Smile!

I am glad you said it was fried chicken. My first thought was freshly made fried pork rind. Which would end up getting soggy in the soup and would up the fat content too. Hmm I wonder if such a ramen exists?
If you eye spy ramen with fried pork rind in it I would love to see that!
Paitan style often has fried pork in it, and the rind will melt away into the soup. Usually, it is awful, but SOULMEN does a good job with it
