    A multi-year Michelin Bib Gourmand fixture two minutes from Minowa Station Exit 3, Toy Box brews broth using exclusively water and four heritage chicken breeds including Hinai-jidori, Nagoya-kochin, Yamato-nikudori, and Kirishima-jidori. Chef Kazutoshi Yamagami balances this pure poultry stock with nine blended raw shoyus and golden chicken oil, ladled over silky Teigaku noodles with pink roasted pork chashu.
