01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
Covered in a glossy glaze brimming with cabbage, wood ear mushrooms, and assorted toppings, the Togen Champon stands as the house signature. Built with a Shanghai-style salted starch gravy, the thick, steaming sauce stays hot down to the bottom of the bowl, inviting additions of black pepper, chili oil, or vinegar along the way to shift the flavors. It is an easy first choice for anyone arriving with a hearty appetite.
From Noodle Bowls to Wok Classics
At Togen in Kamiya, Kita Ward, the menu ranges from standard soy-sauce ramen and tanmen to original noodle creations. One can order wonton noodles packed with plump dumplings, salted chicken ramen crowned with steamed poultry, or dandan noodles served in either Sichuan-style white sesame or the house black sesame broth. The stir-fried selection is just as broad, offering vegetable stir-fries bound in thick sauce alongside shredded beef with bell peppers, liver and garlic chives, and mapo tofu—all well suited to rice or an evening drink.
From Solo Lunches to Evening Small Plates
The dining room includes standard seating alongside private rooms and tatami areas, accommodating quick solo midday meals as easily as evening spreads of shared plates over beer or sake. Local delivery is popular in the neighborhood, and continuous all-day service makes the restaurant a convenient fixture throughout the day. Please note that payments inside the dining room are cash only, so it is wise to keep cash on hand before dropping by.
