Menu and Taste
The menu is simple, with only ramen and tsukemen on the menu. The toppings are characterized by green onions and chashu pork.
Negi Ramen
We settled on Negi Ramen after having a hard time deciding between it and the Chashu Noodle. The large amount of chashu pork, wakame seaweed, and green onion toppings are eye-catching.
The soup is made of chicken broth and tonkotsu (pork bone). It has a deep richness and is very flavorful.
The large piece of chashu pork, which at first glance looks even rugged, gives the dish a satisfying texture.
And the crispy green onions give a refreshing feeling. This unadorned yet well-balanced dish is one of the best in the world.
Gyoza and…pig’s feet?
This restaurant is supposed to be only for lunch, but for some reason, the menu is full of items that are supposed to be drunk.
First of all, everyone loves gyoza, whether you drink or not. They are orthodox, but who doesn’t like them grilled to perfection?
Then, there are the pig’s feet, which have a distinctive presence on the menu. The tenderness of this stewed pork leg is unbelievable.
Conclusion
That’s all for this time.
When you see a retro store that still exists, doesn’t it make you happy? This restaurant is exactly like that, in a relaxing atmosphere, loved by many locals, and the ramen and other menu items are delicious. Please come and taste the well-balanced soup that has been loved for a long time.
