Meguro Station to Aburamen on the bus. If you use the JR Yamanote
Line come out of the ticket gate and turn left. You will see the buses
in front of you. If you come from the Nanboku Line or the Mita Line
go up to ground level and you will see a crosswalk in front of you.
The buses are on the other side of the crosswalk.
You
will see the 01, 02 & 06 buses. You
can catch any of these buses. It costs ¥210. You need to go 3
stops on all of the buses. The second bus stop is called Otori Jinja
Mae (it is named after the beautiful Shinto Shrine it is in front
of).
The
third bus stop is called Moto Keibajyo Mae. It is next to the
Tokyu Supermarket. Get off the bus here and walk in the same direction
as the bus until you get to Aburamen Kosaten (Intersection).

you end up at Meguro Fire Station (Meguro Shobosho Mae) you have gone
one stop too far, so get off the bus and walk in the opposite direction
to the bus to get to Aburamen Kosaten (Intersection).
