About this place
For days when you want a steaming bowl of noodles but still crave a side of rice, Haimaku-tei in Ojima offers practical combination meals. Choices range from a signature soy-sauce ramen with an unpretentious, comforting broth to tantanmen, mapo men, and spicy Mala knife-shaved noodles, each paired with your choice of mapo don or half fried rice. Alternating between the gentle soup and the fiery kick of mapo tofu or fragrant wok-fried rice makes for an undeniably satisfying spread.
When white rice takes center stage, the two-dish set meals are equally compelling. Mainstays like twice-cooked pork (hoikoro), stir-fried liver with garlic chives, sweet and sour Kurobuta pork, or chili shrimp share the tray with a side of mapo tofu, accompanied by rice, soup, and pickles. Toggling between the sweet-savory stir-fries and the flavorful tofu keeps the rice disappearing quickly, making these combinations well suited for a hearty lunch or evening meal.
In the evening, the restaurant also functions as an easy spot for a drink, featuring a set with one beverage and a choice of two small plates. Options include century eggs, scallion chashu, pressed shredded tofu salad, and chive omelets, designed to pair with draft beer, highballs, or Shaoxing wine. Inside, the dining area includes counter and table seating alongside raised tatami areas, and PayPay mobile payments are accepted.
