Arrived at noon on a regular day. 8 customers already seated, more customers arriving and sharing tables, but not facing each other so it quickly filled up. By around 12:30, there were empty seats again. All customers were dining alone. Located on the west side of the Hokkaido University Botanical Gardens, on the street by the Education and Culture Hall. Look for the sign that says "Chinese cuisine". The interior is decorated in a Chinese style, with terracotta warrior figures on the walls. The restaurant has a total of 60 seats, with a possibility of a second floor as well. The first floor has 19 seats, including a counter with 4 seats, 2 tables with 4 seats each, 1 table with 3 seats, and 2 tables with 2 seats each. There is 1 server in the dining area, and the kitchen is not visible. This time, I ordered the "Ramen Set (Tan Tan Men)" for 800 yen. They also have soy sauce ramen. The food arrived about 15 minutes later, following the orders of 5 customers before me. It came with mini fried rice, pickled vegetables, salad, and almond jelly. The fried rice was served a bit later, with plenty of meat miso on top. The soup was very smooth and delicious, with a good sesame flavor. The spiciness was just right for those who like medium spiciness. After eating, my lips felt tingly. The scent of Sichuan pepper was also quite nice. The noodles were white and curly, with a moderate firmness. The vegetables included green onions and bok choy. The fried rice was not too oily and slightly firm, with pickled vegetables in it. The salad consisted of lettuce and cucumber, with tasty Chinese dressing. The almond jelly was slightly sweet. I was quite satisfied with the delicious taste. This might be the first time I've had such a smooth Tan Tan Men! The portion size was decent, and for this variety at 800 yen, it's a great deal! Next time, I'll try either the "Ankake Yakisoba Set" or the "Fried Chicken Set".
