China Townies and the Rammen by SHOCKZ
Check out China Town, the food is cheap and maybe some of the best real chinese food you can get in Japan. The rammen and gyoza comes highly recommended. But be prepared to wait in line for up to 45 minutes for a bowl of rammen, but its worth it. The locals here are also quite friendly, be prepared to get attention like a rock star if you're a foreigner.
