Sichuan Tantan-men Akai Kujira Akasaka Ten
東京都港区赤坂5-4-11 Porte bonheur 1F
Near Akasaka Sta.
About this spot
This Akasaka spot delivers an intense hit of Sichuan heat with its signature Cheese Dan Dan Noodles without Broth, where melted cheese tames the numbing spice of the chili oil. Travelers seeking a milder entry point should try the Recommended Bok Choy Dan Dan Noodles without Broth, which balances rich sesame paste with fresh greens. The atmosphere is purely functional, focusing entirely on the complex interplay of textures in their dry noodle bowls.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order the Cheese Sichuan Dan Dan Noodles if you want a creamy counterpoint to the aggressive peppercorn heat.
- Add a side of Paikou (300 yen) to your meal for an extra kick of fermented bean paste flavor.
- Request 'medium-thick flat noodles' for the dry dishes to get the best texture that holds the heavy sauce.
