One of the most popular Japanese food among foreign visitors: Ramen. There are countless delicious Ramen restaurants in Tokyo, and fortunately, some are open 24 hours a day.
Tokyo has too many things to do and places to visit, so you tend to add what you want to do to your itinerary in excess and leave mealtime until later. After traveling all spots you plan to visit, your planned restaurants may be close.
However, the capital city provides the chance to eat Ramen anytime 24 hours a day. Many of Japanese local say “Ramen after drinking tastes by far better”, and I also recommend to hit the around-the-clock Ramen restaurants after getting a drink. The all-hours Ramens also help you to dine even if you miss the last train to your hotel.
