    Opening its doors at 6:00 AM, E-chan Shokudo established Tokyo's most celebrated morning ramen line seven minutes from Fudomae Station. The owner cooks clear pork broth brimming with hot lard and clean soy tare. Bowls arrive filled to the brim with glossy, wavy Daruma Seimen noodles, hand-sliced tender pork shoulder, crisp menma, and freshly cracked black pepper.
