After finishing my errands in Takikawa City, I visited the restaurant "Ajino Tokeitai Takikawa" located in the shopping mall "Acros Plaza Takikawa" for dinner. I ordered the Takikawa store exclusive menu item, "Ankake Yakisoba" for 950 yen. The dish was served promptly as there was only one other customer. The yakisoba had a light soy sauce flavored sauce with plenty of ingredients, and the smooth and easy-to-eat noodles. Although it was delicious, I felt that the noodles used for the ankake yakisoba did not quite match perfectly with the dish.

I arrived at 11:30 and the restaurant was almost full. However, because there was only one chef in the kitchen, it took quite a while from ordering to the ramen arriving. The taste was really good though. It's definitely a place known for its delicious flavors. I ordered the tasty negi chashu miso ramen and it did not disappoint.

On my way back home from Chitose to Asahikawa, I stopped for dinner at "Ajino Tokeitai Takikawa" located at 132-1 Kawa, Minami-Taki, Takikawa City. I had the nostalgic ramen (630 yen) which was topped with green onions, bamboo shoots, chashu, nori, wakame, narutomaki, and half a boiled egg. It was my first time visiting this restaurant. They offer three flavors of ramen: miso, salt, and soy sauce starting from 860 yen. They also have Kimchi ramen for 1,080 yen and Ankake Yakisoba for 950 yen. The original menu of the Takikawa branch also includes nostalgic ramen, which I tried. The noodles were high-hydration noodles, and the soup had a sweet and light chicken-based flavor. Overall, it was a delicious meal.

I visited after a long time. Recently, the storefront signs at the Taste Clock Tower have changed. I feel like the taste has changed a bit too. This time, I ordered the miso chashu, but I felt it was a bit salty.

I wanted to eat ankake yakisoba... Hmm, it's delicious as usual. The fried rice is also delicious with its hot and crispy texture.

I moved to Takigawa and am searching for a ramen shop. I remember going to this chain restaurant before, and their original ankake yakisoba is especially delicious. The portion is generous and worth the price. I will definitely visit again.

Today, the children are staying at their mom's parents' house. For the first time in a while, mom and I decided to go to "Ajino Tokeidai Takikawa Store" together. I ordered soy sauce tonkotsu ramen and crab fried rice, while mom got miso ramen with extra spicy habanero topping and a Chinese rice bowl. Last time we came, they had habanero ramen, but now it's just a habanero topping. After a short wait, our food started arriving. The soy sauce tonkotsu was decent, nothing special, and the fried rice was about a 65 out of 100. Mom, who loves spicy food, struggled a bit with the habanero topping. It was more straight-up spicy than flavorful. In the end, she gave up and I ended up eating a quarter of the Chinese rice bowl. Preferences change with age, it seems... (bow) Today, our family went to "Ajino Tokeidai Takikawa Store." This is a pretty big chain in Hokkaido. You can even find it at Haneda Airport, and personally, I've eaten at their store in Okayama Prefecture. The restaurant isn't very large, with about 3 tatami tables, 7 regular tables, and counter seats. We usually sit at the tatami tables, but today we chose a regular table. After looking at the menu, I ordered soy sauce tonkotsu ramen, mom got the super spicy habanero ramen, the older sister got salt tonkotsu ramen in a large portion, and we also ordered fried rice and a Chinese rice bowl for everyone. The younger sister and the youngest are staying at grandma's house tonight, so they're not here. There was a student special going on, so we got a free upgrade to a large portion. After a short wait, our food arrived. The super spicy habanero ramen was mom's favorite, while the soy sauce tonkotsu and salt tonkotsu were as delicious as always. The fried rice is a must-order for me, but I would rate it around 65 out of 100. The Chinese rice bowl tastes great with plenty of vinegar. Alright, next time let's go to the Ajino Tokeidai in Fukagawa!

On February 21, 2013, I entered the restaurant after 9 pm on my way to Asahikawa. As always, I started with noodles, never with soup. Based on past experiences where each shop had different noodles or seasoning, I decided to try this ramen shop nearby, and it turned out to be Sapporo-style. Despite being quite hungry, I enjoyed the meal without any concerns.

Depending on the chef and the timing, it can vary. If you're lucky, it can be a hit!
