    Best for

    Founded in 1964, Shina Men Hashigo stands as Ginza's historic destination for Tokyo-style dandanmen, two minutes from Ginza Station Exit C2. The shop calls its signature bowl Dandanten. Chefs layer aromatic roasted sesame paste, chili oil, and Sichuan pepper over a light chicken and pork bone stock. The premier order is the Pai-ko Dandanten, crowned with a freshly fried curry-scented pork cutlet that crisps against the spiced soup. Thin, firm noodles arrive alongside unlimited steamed white rice and pickled takuan radish.
