    Built from search snippets only (Tabelog, Navitime, a travel blog, Instagram). Search linked TRY's '大公タンタン' page but that is a different shop in Yokohama, so not used. Broth style not confirmed; Shoyu is a guess from menu photos described in snippets, so please check. Parking from an Instagram snippet. Sources other than official/TRY/Hotpepper pages were read as search-result snippets only (Tabelog/Instagram pages were not fetched).
