About this place
At Menya Enji, choosing your noodles is part of making the vege-pota tsukemen your own. The menu describes the wheat-germ noodles as firm, with a pronounced wheat flavour, while the chewy noodles are smooth to slurp and springy. Diners who chose the wheat-germ noodles have praised their flavour and texture, as well as how well they pair with the rich dipping broth. They’re a good option if you want plenty of broth clinging to each mouthful.
Several diners have remarked on the vege-pota broth’s thick, rich consistency. Some enjoyed its pairing with yuzu; others noted the balance of the vegetables’ natural sweetness and seafood flavour. There’s a range of options on the menu, including tsukemen with seasoned egg, extra meat and a spicy version. Start with the classic, or add extra meat if you’d like a more substantial bowl.
After finishing the noodles, some diners make the most of the remaining dipping broth with soup-wari, a broth added to dilute it. The restaurant also suits solo diners. Payment is cash only.
