"I visited 'Jinsei Yumeji Tokumen' near Tanimachi 4-chome and tried their 'Fish and Shellfish Salt Ramen (900 yen)'. The broth is made from a combination of dried bonito and kelp, with a low viscosity salt soup that is smooth and refreshing, enhanced with the umami of shellfish. The subtle sweetness and balanced richness of the broth, along with the elegant flavor of dried bonito, create a deep and satisfying taste. The noodles are homemade using medium-thin straight noodles made by Yamato Noodle Company, incorporating roasted amani for a rich flavor and a firm texture. The chicken breast chashu is moist and flavorful, while the small but plentiful clams are perfectly seasoned. You can also adjust the taste with black pepper and shichimi on the table."

I finally had time to go out for lunch today after being busy all morning. I had the mixed noodles, which are always delicious here. I shared the pork bowl with my coworker, and it was seriously the best! Thank you for the delicious meal! ❤️

I visited this place after being indecisive with multiple shops nearby. I purchased a meal ticket at the ticket machine and took a seat. After a few minutes of waiting, the ramen arrived. The soup was clear but lacked the flavor of clams, and the chicken chashu could have been better. It was a bit confusing to understand the set menu options. Hmm.

For lunch on this day, I went to "Jinsei Yumeji Tokumen" in Yotsubashi, Osaka. This restaurant is still open and operating despite the challenges of the pandemic, so I wanted to show my support by having lunch there. I ordered the "Mix Noodles Large," which comes with 230g of noodles. The noodles in this dish were thick and chewy. On top of the noodles, there were thinly sliced pork loin chashu, chicken chashu, and tuna or mackerel flakes, along with bamboo shoots, chopped seaweed, finely chopped green onions, and a half-cooked egg yolk in the center. The sauce was a soy-based sauce with a hint of seafood flavor. I mixed everything together thoroughly before eating, and the combination of the chewy noodles and flavorful toppings was absolutely delicious. I remember that this dish used to come with an extra serving of rice, but it seems like that option is no longer available. Even without the extra rice, this dish is still amazing.

Ramen shop in the fierce competition area of Tamachi 4-chome. The interior has 9 counter seats, and you purchase tickets at the entrance ticket machine. I ordered the special mixed noodles (with everything, free extra noodles) for 1250 yen plus a pork bowl for 400 yen. The special mixed noodles are topped with thinly sliced ​​char siu in a circular pattern, as well as chicken char siu, chopped pork char siu, menma, chopped seaweed, green onions, and egg yolk for a beautiful presentation. Scoop up the medium-thick homemade noodles from the bottom, mix well, add dried fish vinegar and chili oil to taste. Mix everything well and take a bite... the thinly sliced char siu and noodles are well coated with the sauce, with the spiciness of the chili oil and the tanginess of the dried fish vinegar adding accents to the flavor, making it delicious. The char siu bowl, although small, had the chopped char siu seasoned more intensely, making it a perfect match with the rice. Finally, I enjoyed the extra rice for the mixed noodles, diving into the remaining sauce. I ate to my heart's content. It was a delicious mixed noodles experience.

Headed to "Jinsei Yumeji Tokumen" in Chuo-ku, Osaka. It is located about 300m northwest from exit 4 of the Tanimachi Yonchome Station on the Osaka Metro Tanimachi Line. There are a few coin parking lots around charging around 300 yen for 30 minutes. Visited on a Wednesday at 7:30 pm with 3 other customers present. The interior has a small L-shaped counter with seating for about 6-8 people. The owner runs the shop alone. Based on their official Twitter account, evening hours can be irregular due to ingredient shortages or the owner's schedule, so it's essential to check in advance if visiting at night. The basic noodle menu includes Chinese soba (light or rich), fish and shellfish salt soba, mixed soba, and Shimacho mixed soba. I selected the "Chinese soba" for 850 yen from the ticket vending machine and requested the light soy sauce flavoring. The soup, made with soft water to bring out the potential of dried bonito and kelp, has a rich umami taste that seems like it would significantly increase the cost if made without chemical seasonings. However, the combination of rich dried bonito and light soy sauce results in a slightly salty taste that somewhat spoils the excellent broth. The noodles, slightly high in water content, are medium-thin straight noodles with a chewy texture. Although they support the flavor with whole wheat, personally, I prefer the rich wheat flavor of the firm, crunchy, low-water noodles that are a staple of niboshi ramen. Toppings include tender chicken breast, ham-like pork shoulder loin, half-boiled egg with a moist texture, slightly crunchy menma, and a little bit of green onion as a garnish. Thank you for the meal!

I arrived at the restaurant right when it opened at 11:00 for an early lunch. I ordered the "Chuka Soba (850 yen)" with an extra noodle topping for 100 yen. You can choose between light soy sauce or dark soy sauce for the soup. The manager recommended the light soy sauce as it brings out the flavor of the broth better, so I chose that. The presentation of the ramen was beautiful, almost like French cuisine. The soup was clear and when I took a sip, it had a refined fish broth flavor. The noodles had a unique texture. This ramen might be more suited for those who prefer a light fish broth without strong flavors, rather than those who like a bold punch of fish or animal-based broth.

Today, I had a meeting in Osaka city for the second day in a row... It was supposed to end in the morning since it's Saturday, but it ended up going a bit longer and finished around 1:30 pm. I was a bit disappointed with the odd timing, so I wandered around looking for lunch. I remembered having ramen in this area yesterday for both lunch and dinner, so I decided to go for ramen again for lunch. I wanted something light this time, so I settled on a salt ramen. I found a good restaurant and walked there. It was hot today, so I figured I needed some salt in my system to replace the sweat. There were only three other customers when I arrived around 1:30 pm - a young person engrossed in their phone and a couple. I hesitated between the default fish and shellfish salt ramen for 900 yen and the cold ramen option, but eventually went with the default one. The ramen arrived in just 5 minutes since it was not crowded. The salt ramen had a nice aroma, with plenty of clams and a strong shellfish broth flavor. The noodles were thin and straight, which absorbed the soup well. The slices of rare chashu added a nice touch, not overpowering the salt flavor. The chicken was not too strong in taste but still satisfying to eat. I bet it would taste even better after a few drinks. I also noticed a light and dark soy sauce ramen on the menu that I want to try next time. Overall, it was a delicious meal.

Lately, when watching baseball, I've been thinking that the use of earned runs and runs allowed is all messed up. I wonder if my understanding is wrong... Anyway, I tried the delicious Shimachou mixed noodles at Batchkoi again. It's junky and delicious!

I had the fish and shellfish salt ramen. The thin noodles slide down smoothly, and the soup is full of rich seafood flavors. The bamboo shoots are tender, and the rare chicken breast chashu was delicious. There were more than 10 clams in it, which were tasty, but a little sandy. It's located in an office area, so it was not crowded on Saturdays.

At TanKou Chuka Soba at 6:30 pm, we were able to sit down right away with around 3 people. The noodles were delicious, the seasoned egg was excellent, and the hot broth was refreshing. The Chashu rice bowl had various cuts and types of Chashu, which is not common to see in a bowl.

Chuka soba (800): The beautiful chashu immediately catches your eye in this lovely ramen! The clear soup and firm noodles look delicious from the start! The soup is full of umami from seafood, making it deeply flavorful and easy to drink. The noodles are flavorful and have a nice chewy texture. The rare chashu is tender and moist, making it a satisfying and affordable bowl of ramen!

The balance of noodles and soup is good. It's nice that they use homemade noodles and no chemical seasonings. It's gentle on the body. #LifeDreamRoadTokuNoodles #TokuNoodles #Ramen #HomemadeNoodles #BoiledEgg #TanimachiYonchome #Taniyon #Jerry #JerryMeal #Tabelog

The clear soup made with dried bonito flakes and kelp is the highlight here. First, take a sip with a ladle. It has a very nice, mild taste without any strong flavors. It's said to be free of artificial seasonings. After a few sips, have it with the noodles. The thin noodles go well with the soup. The chicken chashu is perfectly tender. The seasoned egg is also good, not too strong. Towards the end, I felt the soup was a bit too salty, but just slightly. It could be because of my own condition. In any case, at 850 yen, it's a good value and delicious ramen. Thank you for the meal.

I love this restaurant not only for the delicious food, but also because it always lifts my spirits when I visit. The staff is friendly and the atmosphere is positive, with many nice customers as well. I feel like the owner's personality shines through in this great place, and I plan to keep coming back. When I want something hearty, I go for the "Shimachou Maze Soba," and in the winter, I enjoy the miso ramen. When I'm in the mood for something lighter, I opt for the soy sauce ramen, with the choice of light or rich broth. The soup is delicate, the noodles are delicious, and the toppings are great.

I visited around 12:30 on a regular day. It was full, so I waited for about 2-3 minutes before entering. The ramen was served quickly. The clams were firm and tasty. The bamboo shoots were ordinary and can be found anywhere. The noodles were soft and the compatibility with the soup was average. The soup lacked sweetness, was free of animal products and artificial additives, and had an elegant taste without being heavy. It is a ramen full of elegance from the bonito flakes. Among the ramen in Osaka, it is top-notch in terms of preference. If you like simple and elegant ramen, you will likely have the same impression.

"Chinese Ramen - Rich Soy Sauce Flavor + Pork Bowl Set" 1,200 yen. On this day, I went on a noodle adventure with my son. It's been about 3 years since we last visited Tokumen. We parked the car at a nearby coin parking lot and arrived a little after 1 pm. The restaurant was full, so we had to wait outside for about 5 minutes. We finally got inside, purchased our meal tickets, and sat at the counter. You can choose between rich soy sauce and light soy sauce for the ramen, so I chose rich soy sauce while my son chose light soy sauce. The bowl arrived shortly after. It had a large piece of pork chashu, a small piece of chicken chashu, half a boiled egg, bamboo shoots, and green onions. The soup had a rich soy sauce color and was not too oily. Let's dig in! First, the soup... One sip and the umami flavor of the seafood broth hit me all at once. It was light and you could keep drinking it endlessly. It was deliciously gentle without any artificial seasoning. It wasn't as salty as it looked, so you could really enjoy the flavor of the broth. It seems like they have improved it since the last time I had it. It was incredibly delicious. The smooth homemade noodles paired perfectly with the soup. The chicken chashu was thick and lightly seasoned, while the pork chashu was made from loin. It was slightly rare, tender, and packed with meaty flavor. I was happy to see half a boiled egg included in the default set, and it was perfectly runny. The pork bowl in the set had thinly sliced slightly rare chashu, and the light sauce allowed the deliciousness of the pork chashu to shine through. I finished every last drop of the soup. It was a delightful meal. Thank you for the meal! (^^)

It's cold so let's go eat ramen. I went to a winter ramen shop and was worried about where to put my coat and bag. There were chairs with backrests, but it's difficult with round chairs. I saw coat hangers in the interior photo, so I decided to go. I ordered the seafood salt ramen for 900 yen. The ramen arrived with lots of clams. The soup was mild and gentle, made with clam broth. The noodles were not thin, but rather medium-thin. The clams added flavor but were a bit cumbersome to eat. The chicken ham chashu was okay, but I would have preferred pork. There were tough menma, half-boiled egg, green onions, and a mini tomato. The tomato was a nice addition. Overall, I should have chosen soy sauce flavor. I went at an odd time to avoid crowds, but strangely more people came and it became full. Even the lady next to me with a backpack seemed puzzled. Thank you for the meal.

I have tried to go to Tokumen a few times but it was always closed. However, it was open on Friday night! When we entered, there were only two of us but it quickly filled up with more customers coming in. I ordered the Chuka Soba Tori Mayo Don Set for 1200 yen, and my husband ordered the Fish and Shellfish Salt Soba for 900 yen. The owner seemed to be handling everything alone, from cooking to cleaning, and it looked quite challenging. Our dishes arrived in about 10 minutes. The rich soy sauce soup had a sharp and delicious taste! The straight thin noodles paired well with the soup. It is now one of my top 3 favorite soy sauce soups I've ever had. The Tori Mayo Don had light chicken chashu with plenty of green onions that complemented each other well. It had a slightly spicy flavor with a hint of chili oil. I would definitely like to visit this ramen shop again. Thank you for the meal ★

Today's lunch was ramen! The restaurant I headed to was "Jinsei Yumeji Tokumen". To get there, it's a 5-minute walk from Exit 4 of Osaka Metro Tanimachi Yonchome Station. I arrived a little before the opening time of 11:00. First, I purchased a ticket at the entrance ticket machine. You can choose between light soy sauce or dark soy sauce for the ramen. I chose dark soy sauce and handed the ticket to the counter. The seating area consisted of only 6 seats at an L-shaped counter, making it a very small restaurant. In about 5 minutes, the ramen was served! The soup was made with a fish-based broth without any animal products, and it had a delicious umami flavor. They used 5 types of dried sardines, 4 types of bonito flakes, and kelp in the soup. The aroma of the dark soy sauce was also very good. The noodles were homemade thin straight noodles, smooth and firm. The toppings included two types of chashu, thick menma, half-seasoned egg, and green onions. I finished every last drop of the soup. It was a clean, MSG-free ramen that I could eat every day. Thank you for the meal!

On Saturday at 12:00, I went to "Jinsei Yumeji Tokumen" in Tanimachi 4-chome. I ordered the "Chuka Soba (850 yen)" and chose the recommended light soy sauce over the dark soy sauce. It arrived in 6 minutes. With the first sip, I found the soup to be delicious and refreshing. The light soy sauce did not overpower the carefully crafted soup, allowing its flavors to shine through. The chicken fat was not greasy at all, making it easy to finish the soup. The chashu was thin and large like aged ham, with two slices of tender chicken breast. It also had bamboo shoots, half-boiled egg, and green onions. The straight noodles had a smooth and satisfying texture. I also became interested in the "Seafood Salt Ramen," so I plan to try that next time. Thank you for the meal.
