    Occupying an open seven-seat wooden counter in the basement of Tokyo Kotsu Kaikan opposite Yurakucho Station, Hyottoko prepares tranquil Japanese dashi ramen. The master extracts clear stock from chicken bones, dried bonito, and mackerel flakes, melting freshly grated Kochi yuzu citrus peel into the golden soup. Fine straight noodles accompany thick, tender braised pork belly, a boiled egg half, and crisp Mitsuba greens.
