Ebisu has historically been one of Tokyo's ramen battle grounds. And though recent years have seen the ramen war being fought on a much grander scale, it is still nice to find a winner in this part of town.
The niboshisoba at Ozeki is a light, pure blend of smoky dried fish from around Japan. This style has been done to death lately, but Ozeki seems to be a little more no-nonsense than a lot of contenders.
Simple and smooth. This is the ultimate after-drinking ramen. Just a minute walk from one of my favorite Tokyo cocktail bars.
Chukasoba and a creamy chicken soup are also on the menu, and both have been praised as well.
Worthy of TV coverage.

If one is in Ebisu and wants to have both bowls, in which order should he|she go? Ozeki first, Tsunagi second? Or the reverse? 3=))
Ozeki is lighter, so maybe start there. But Ozeki is closer to some good drinking spots (Trench and Tram), so maybe end there, depending on your mood.
