Special Clam Soba (Hamaguri)
Mugito OliveGinza·$$
¥1180.00
Signature ramen featuring a clear broth of concentrated hamaguri clam stock, topped with clams and tender chicken char siu.
Tip: Take the first few sips of the broth before mixing in any of the toppings! You'll be able to taste the incredible clarity of the hamaguri stock. The olive oil on the table is meant to be added halfway through—it adds a unique Mediterranean-style aroma that pairs perfectly with the clams.

Miso Clam Soup
KurasushiCitywide·$
¥250.00
Rich red miso soup packed with fresh, sweet seasonal clams.
Tip: This is non-negotiable! The clam flavor is remarkably concentrated. Order it as soon as you sit down to warm up your palate. It's much better than standard miso soup—the clams are tiny but very sweet.

¥1300.00
Refined ramen featuring a multi-protein broth that balances land and sea umami.
Tip: This is non-negotiable for serious ramen fans! The way the chicken and sardine stocks support the clam is incredibly clever. It's the most savory bite on the menu—don't share it if you can help it.
