    Two minutes from Yushima Station Exit 3, Aun crafts Tokyo's premier Sichuan tantanmen. The kitchen grinds roasted white sesame seeds on stone mills into an aromatic paste, whisking it with chicken broth, homemade chili oil, and freshly ground Sichuan flower peppercorns. Diners choose spice heat and tongue-numbing sansho levels independently from zero to six, coating chewy noodles in sweet pork mince and crunchy watercress.
