●●Waiting Situation●● I arrived at the restaurant on a holiday at 12:50 pm! There are 13 people waiting outside. I was able to enter at 1:25 pm! ●●Order●● I chose the "Special Chinese Soba" for 1200 yen! ●●Soup●● The soup is based on chicken broth with a strong flavor of dried sardines! It has a significant dried sardine taste, which I personally really liked!! When it comes to soy sauce ramen, I prefer ones where I can really taste the dried sardines, haha. ●●Noodles●● The noodles are thin with a wavy texture. These noodles are so delicious!!! They have a chewy texture while also allowing you to taste the wheat flavor! They are similar to the noodles you would find in sardine ramen in the Kanto region. When I looked it up, it was indeed made by Mikawaya Noodle Company, haha. I really like Mikawaya's noodles, as expected, haha. ●●Chashu●● The chashu is also delicious! You can taste the richness of the meat, making it worth getting extra chashu! The flavored egg was also really tasty. ●●Overall Impression●● Personally, this was a Chinese soba that I really enjoyed! It lives up to being a famous restaurant with its deliciousness. The soup, noodles, and chashu were all top-notch. Thank you for the meal!

When I entered the shop, a nice scent of dried fish broth drifted in the air. It was my first time there, so I ordered the soy sauce ramen. It had a classic taste of Chinese ramen, with thin but firm noodles that were seriously delicious. The soup was so good that I wanted to take it home in a thermos! Next time, I want to try the oil ramen that the person next to me was eating, as it looked really tasty.

Thank you for always reading. If you enjoyed it, I would be happy if you could bookmark the restaurant by clicking the "Save Shop" button. Today, I visited Chukasoba Sen for the first time. The address is 7-6-15 Karata, Sumiyoshi-ku, Osaka City, a 3-minute walk from Abiko Station on the Osaka Metro. I arrived at the shop before 2 p.m. Closed on Mondays, business hours are 11:30-14:30 and 18:00-23:00. No waiting outside. I entered the shop, got permission for photos, and used the ticket machine. They offer three types of ramen: soy sauce, salt, and sesame, as well as tsukemen and a special option. I ordered the special soy sauce ramen and the limited rice dish. I paid 1,350 yen in total. The soup was made with 4 types of dried sardines and Tanba Jidori chicken, creating a rich flavor. The noodles were thin and firm, with a nice wheat flavor. The special toppings included pork loin chashu, menma, nori, and chopped green onions. The pork chashu was delicious with a good texture. The rice dish was cooked with chashu and ramen soup, complementing the ramen perfectly. After finishing the noodles, I enjoyed the remaining soup and toppings like ochazuke. It was a satisfying meal, and I thanked the staff before leaving.

I arrived at 11:20, and it seems like the restaurant opens at 11:30, but it was already open when I arrived. I was able to sit down right away without waiting. However, soon after, a lot of people came in and there was a line forming outside. Luckily, I already had my ticket! I purchased my meal ticket from the ticket machine. This time, I chose the salt ramen and the RED oil ramen. I was asked which one I wanted first, and I chose the salt ramen. The atmosphere inside the restaurant was nice, with jazz music playing. The owner, the owner's wife, and a female staff member were running the place. The salt ramen was served quickly. The soup was made with various ingredients such as animal bones, dried fish, and aromatic vegetables, giving it a rich flavor with the umami taste of dried fish and kelp coming through. The salt seasoning was well-balanced without any strange edges, tightening the overall flavor and allowing the broth's umami to shine through. The soup was overall well-behaved. The noodles were straight and thin, cooked firm with a chewy texture and a good wheat flavor. The seasoned pork had a strong flavor, and the bamboo shoots had a unique taste with a crunchy texture and sweetness. It was very easy to eat, but I found it a bit lacking in flavor overall. Next, the RED oil ramen was served. It was red... I was worried it would be extremely spicy, but it wasn't as spicy as it looked! The soy sauce-based sauce was rich in umami from dried fish and had a strong garlic flavor, which I really enjoyed! The noodles were flat and curly, cooked firm with a chewy texture that wrapped the soy sauce sauce nicely. The pork was flavorful and well-coated in the sauce, with a strong garlic taste. The bamboo shoots were also delicious. Finally, rice was served with the ramen, and after mixing it with the flavorful sauce, it was incredibly delicious. The RED ramen was extremely satisfying. Today, just discovering the deliciousness of this RED ramen made the visit here worthwhile. Delicious!

My second son and I visited this place together. On this day, the ticket machine was flashing with three options: "soy sauce ramen," "salt ramen," and "abura soba." It was my first visit and I was a bit confused, but it seemed like they also had cold noodles on the menu. The next customer after us asked, "Do you have cold noodles?" and when the staff said they didn't, they left without ordering anything, which made me curious if the cold noodles were delicious. Also, there was no sesame-flavored dish available. Today, my second son and I both had the "special soy sauce ramen," which had everything included: 2 sheets of seaweed, chashu, soft-boiled egg, and menma. Personally, I found the chashu to be not too fatty, more like chicken meat in texture, and the menma had a rich flavor. The staff seemed like skilled craftsmen. It was delicious home-style ramen.

Chuka soba Sen (7-6-15 Karada, Sumiyoshi-ku, Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture) is a ramen shop located in a residential area east of Abiko Street, close to Osaka Metro Abiko Station. It has been selected as one of the top 100 ramen shops on Tabelog. On Sunday nights, there may be a short wait. The clientele tends to be on the younger side. The interior only has counter seats and operates on a ticket system. The tsukemen with boiled egg costs 1100 yen and comes with two slices of char siu, crunchy thin-sliced menma, and seaweed. The slightly chewy medium-thick noodles have a glossy appearance and a chewy texture. The balanced fish flavor and acidity of the dipping soup are excellent. When you dip the noodles in the soup, the texture is outstanding. Lastly, the refined finishing soup with a dashi flavor is exquisite. Operating hours are 11:30-14:30 and 18:00-22:45 (last order). Closed on Mondays. Cash payment and ticket system. No parking available, but there are many coin parking lots nearby.

I visited during the day. There was already a line before the store opened. The soy sauce soup had a rich flavor and was delicious! The noodles were straight and firm, which I like! The portion size was also generous and satisfying. There were only two staff members, the owner and an employee. Both of them were working diligently and earnestly. I will definitely come back!

For anyone who loves ramen in Kansai, there is a famous restaurant that I had never visited before. It felt like buying the first volume of a popular comic when visiting for the first time after so many years since it opened. I entered the restaurant close to closing time at around 2:25 PM, and it was almost full. The interior had a seasoned look despite being open for about 10 years. I ordered the Shoyu Chuka Soba for 900 yen. The soup was a clear shoyu broth made with soy sauce, kelp, and dried bonito, resulting in a refined and flavorful ramen. It was a high-quality bowl. Before finishing my meal, a huge downpour started, and there was a warning issued. Despite everyone having umbrellas, they hesitated to leave. Since it was past closing time, including myself, we left the restaurant fully drenched, prepared for the rain. If I were the owner, I wouldn't have the luxury to say, "Please, take your time until the rain calms down!" Thank you for the meal!

When I go back to my hometown, I always stop by this place. It's so popular now, but I didn't post about it because it's just a given. They've been serving Chinese noodles for 10 years. I had the special soy sauce ramen and seared pork rice. It's probably really high in calories, so that's all I'm having for lunch today. I've eaten here dozens, maybe hundreds of times, but it's still the best. It's so obvious, just a simple comment.

Chinese soba Sen special soy sauce Chinese soba ¥1200 Extra noodles ¥150. The soup is clear, not cloudy, not too thick, not too thin, just right. The moderate amount of back fat is nice. It feels like throwing yourself into nature, with the earth at your back and the blue sky in front of you. That's the kind of feeling this bowl gives. The seasoned egg is just right, not overpowering the soup but enhancing it nicely. The chashu also doesn't overpower, with a good balance of sweetness and spiciness. The menma is not too sweet, everything is understated yet delicious. Truly worthy of being a top 100 ramen shop. I wanted to try the tsukemen. Apparently, they also have a limited-time cold tsukemen. #ramen #noodles #tsukemen #coldnoodles #soup #tonkotsu #porkramen #tonkotsuramen #seafoodporkbone #driedfishramen #soysauce #misoramen #saltedramen #chickenwhiteramen #chickenwhitesoup #chashu #oilsoba #Taiwanmixedsoba #tantanmen #noodlestagram #ramenlovers #ramenclub #ramenlover #rameninstagrammer #menstagrammer #noodleinstagrammer #connectwithramenlovers

Visited on Friday at 7:45 PM. The place was full when I arrived. It took 10 minutes to be served. The soup was decent. However, the chashu was a bit disappointing. The noodles were okay. They didn't seem to match the soup perfectly, but it was not bad either.

I visited the restaurant on a regular night and ordered the oil noodles. When you order the oil noodles, you also get a set with "finishing rice". In the bowl, on top of the noodles, there are sliced ​​chashu, menma, white leeks, green leeks, nori, minced meat, raw egg, all mixed together generously with the sauce accumulated at the bottom of the bowl! I get so absorbed in eating it, haha. I enjoy changing the taste by adding vinegar halfway through, and in the end, I add the finishing rice. It's a flash oil noodles where you can enjoy various flavors in one bowl. Thank you for the meal.

I ordered the menu ☆ Tsukemen for 950 yen (including tax). The noodles are from Tokyo, made by Mikawa-ya Seimen. The soup is made with Tanba Jidori chicken, Kagoshima pork, and four types of dried fish from different regions. It also contains Hokkaido-produced Ma Konbu and Rausu Konbu. I arrived after 8:00 PM and was able to get a seat without waiting, but it was the last one available. The person after me had to wait outside. Thank you for the meal! The Chuka Soba was delicious. Thank you very much!

Soft-boiled egg soy sauce ramen for 1050 yen. It had a traditional Chinese ramen feel, with a rich and flavorful broth. The noodles were thin, firm, and had a satisfying bite. The attention to ingredients was impressive, making it a truly delicious soy sauce ramen.

Order: Soy sauce ramen with boiled egg, along with white rice. There is a cozy ramen shop near Abiko Station on the Midosuji Line. Arriving just before 6:00 pm on a weekday, I found one person already waiting. The energetic service left a good impression. The ramen had a traditional flavor of dried bonito with a strong soy sauce taste. The thin noodles had a great texture, and all the toppings, especially the boiled egg, were delicious. The rice was also incredibly tasty, and eating the chashu on top was pure happiness. I think this is a restaurant that you'll want to visit multiple times.

Third visit! Arrived at the restaurant around 12:30, it was full so I bought a meal ticket and waited for about 5 minutes to enter! I had the seasonal limited cold tsukemen! The sesame flavor was refreshing, and the chashu had a rich seasoning which was delicious. There were options to change the taste with black pepper, chili oil, and vinegar, so I enjoyed trying each one. Personally, I liked the black pepper the most!

Night visit. Only one group of people can enter. Shirasu rice is temporarily unavailable due to price increase. Purchase a food ticket. The water is cold and delicious. Special soy sauce ramen for 1200 yen. The flavor of the dried fish is amazing, and the soup has a good amount of oil without being too heavy. The soy sauce flavor is not too strong, which is great. The noodles are firm, and there are two types of chashu: one with a bit more fat and a firmer one. The seaweed, soup, and noodles all complement each other well. The flavored egg is firm with a half-cooked yolk. I usually don't like soy sauce ramen with a strong soy sauce taste, but after just one bite here, I was impressed by the amazing flavor. Thank you for the meal.

I visited Chuka soba Sen. It's been 2 years since my last visit. I ordered the boiled egg Chuka soba. The soup has a strong flavor of chicken and dried sardines, with a nice sweetness. The noodles are from Mikawa Seimenjo, and they have a good firmness. Thank you for the meal.

I visited for lunch during work. The ratings were so high that I had high expectations. I usually eat mixed soba, but this time I chose soy sauce ramen. It's hard to give a review since I don't eat it often, but I think I set my expectations too high. Next time, I will eat mixed soba. Thank you for the meal.

I visited Sun's Flash in Myoko. Today, I ordered the rare salt ramen. The hot salt soup in the heated bowl was very light. Even after drinking, my throat didn't feel dry at all! Not only the soup but also the noodles were excellent! It was a delicious bowl!

I finally got to visit a restaurant I've been wanting to go to for a while. Despite having many options, I decided to try their most popular special soy sauce ramen (with a beer). The moment I took a bite... it was delicious! It may look like a typical soy sauce ramen, but it had a nostalgic taste along with a depth of flavor. I couldn't help but order a bowl of white rice halfway through.
