It was too hot to visit for a while, but after 3 months, I finally went back and the food was still delicious. The owner's mother will be hospitalized from the 6th, but is expected to return on September 16th. The ramen with extra bamboo shoots is pictured. The restaurant is located in Osaka, and the opening hours are 11:00 to around 13:30, closed on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays.

I went there yesterday, and a heartless man said, "The guy who used to make ramen here is gone, right?" I replied, "Yes, he passed away." It was a poignant moment. However, the ramen I received was surprisingly delicious. I was touched. I support them.

It was hot again this morning, but surprisingly there weren't many people lined up. So, I was the first in line. Inside the shop was also hot, so they had a big fan at the entrance blowing air inside. The back door was also open. Today, I had the large Char Siu Ramen with half rice. It was delicious! Oh, and I noticed that their business hours have changed for the summer.

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Likelihood to repeat: ⭐️⭐️ Atmosphere: ⭐️⭐️ Cost performance: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Service: ⭐️⭐️ Location: Minamikagaya, Suminoe-ku, Osaka City Today, I visited Ten Ten U with my troublesome colleague, who is a lunch refugee. The entrance looked sketchy with the door wide open. I wondered if the air conditioning wasn't working properly. My suspicions were confirmed as we ordered near the entrance with a pre-payment system. My colleague treated me, and we ordered a large ramen with a side of small rice. My colleague had ramen, gyoza, and a small rice, battling both the heat and the portion to finish it all and feel full, sweating profusely in our heavy cotton clothes (lol). The taste was enticing, but I think I'll come back when it gets colder.

I confirmed that the restaurant was open after work, so I visited for the first time in a while. Since it is a small business, you have to place your order and pay in advance on a computer before sitting down. I was shocked to find out that the "nira kimchi" is no longer all-you-can-eat, but you can add a mountain of it for an additional 100 yen. The soup has become stronger in flavor, and it seems to have changed a bit, but I hope they continue to work hard and stay in business.

I love the old-fashioned atmosphere of this popular ramen shop in Suminoe, Osaka, even though it's not exactly beautiful. When I visited right after opening, it was already almost full. You pay at the entrance before being seated. I ordered the Charshu Ramen for 850 yen, Gyoza for 200 yen, and a half portion of rice for 100 yen. The ramen came in a small bowl with plenty of charshu on top, so you couldn't see the noodles. The chicken broth soup was delicious and addictive. The gyoza was also very tasty with a lot of garlic. I understand why there is always a line. It was a delicious meal of ramen and gyoza. I will definitely come back again.

Second time at Shinsen, always bringing guests from Nara. The first-time visitor was satisfied and said it was amazing and non-slippery. Thank you, I support you. I think the restaurant is quite busy, so I try not to say too much.

I stopped by a ramen shop in Izumi City on my way back from a hospital appointment. It was just before lunchtime so I was able to get in without waiting. The soup had a slightly sweet and nostalgic taste. It was the kind of ramen that you crave after having a drink. #Foodie #Foodstagram #OsakaFood #OsakaLunch #OsakaRamen #SuminoeFood #SuminoeLunch #SuminoeRamen

Today (6/23), I made a big expedition to Suminoe-Koen Station, the terminal station of the Osaka Metro Yotsubashi Line. I visited this restaurant located just a few minutes' walk from the station. It had been on my visit list for a while, but the distance to Suminoe-Koen Station made it hard to decide when to go. However, I finally gathered the courage to visit. When I arrived a little before opening time, there were already a few people waiting outside, so I joined the line and soon the restaurant opened. Inside, I ordered and paid in advance (no ticket machine) for the default "Ramen (700 yen)" and took a seat at the counter. The bowl arrived shortly after, with straight medium-thick noodles submerged in a brownish cloudy soup, topped with three slices of chashu, menma, bean sprouts, green onions, and more. When I slurped the soup with a spoon, it had a mysterious taste - I couldn't quite tell if it was pork bone, chicken bone, or both, but it was a flavor I didn't dislike and actually quite enjoyed (after checking reviews posted after returning home, some said it was pork bone while others said it was chicken bone, so I still couldn't tell). The noodles were not firm but slightly sticky, which surprisingly went well with the soup and tasted delicious. The chashu was a bit tough, but it also paired decently with the soup. There was a small dish of garlic chives kimchi provided, so I tried adding it halfway through the meal, but it didn't suit my taste as much as it does in a ramen from Ichiran. Nevertheless, I happily finished the meal, considering the taste at this price point to be truly wonderful. That sums up my experience.

This is my second visit in a year. This time, I ordered the Char Siu Ramen for 950 yen. I remember last year there was unlimited garlic chives, but this time they gave a small plate of it. The taste was still delicious. Next time, I will order gyoza and a small bowl of rice in addition to the ramen.

I don't like lining up, but there's always a line, so I had no choice but to wait. I wanted to try the limited quantity mini chashu bowl. It had quite a lot of chashu scraps, but the rice portion was a bit small. The scraps were seasoned like yangnyeom and had a slightly spicy taste. It sold out quickly. That was close! (laughs)

Today, for the first time in decades, I visited a ramen shop called "Tenten Kanma Ari" in Suminoe. Tenten Ari without Kanma is a very famous shop in Ichijoji, Kyoto, but Tenten Kanma Ari in Suminoe is not a knockoff, but the actual younger brother's shop. The head chef passed away a few years ago and the shop closed temporarily, but it seems that relatives have revived it with a focus on lunch business, so I decided to revisit. I aimed to arrive at the opening time of 11 o'clock, but I had to dig my car into the parking lot, so I was a little late and encountered a line as shown in the picture. My impression after eating for the first time in a while is that it's not necessary to wait in line for this place. In the past, there were only a few good ramen shops, but now there are as many good ramen shops as there are stars. Also, in the past, there were no restrictions on extra garlic sauce like the excessive amount of pickled ginger at Yoshinoya, but now they provide it in small portions and if you want more, you have to pay extra, which is a smart approach.

Today, I had work in Nanko, so for lunch I went to this place after a long time. The menu looked like this! I arrived at 10:45 and was the first in line, but by the time they opened at 11, it was already full and there was a line outside. The ramen was 700 yen, with an additional half portion of noodles for 100 yen, and half rice for 100 yen. It was really delicious, Osaka's treasure for sure (laughs). I was very satisfied, thank you for the meal. Address: 4-4-22 Minamikagaya, Suminoe-ku, Osaka City. Phone: 06-6682-0327. Open from 11:00 until the soup runs out (around 13:00). Closed on Sundays and Mondays. Feel free to follow Skasan on Instagram/Facebook/Twitter. I am participating in a blog ranking, your one-click support is my source of energy!

I went to Tenten Aru in Suminoe Ward, Osaka City. I ordered the Chashu Ramen for 850 yen and a side of rice for 150 yen. The owner, an older man, has been rumored to be sick with a cold since last year. The shop had temporarily closed but recently reopened. When I visited, the ramen was being made by an older woman and the shop was being run by other family members. The older man was not there, likely due to the new system in place to keep the shop running smoothly. The ramen was delicious and the taste had not changed, but it felt a bit lonely without the older man there. Thank you for continuing to maintain the shop's delicious flavors. I will keep coming back to eat here in the future.

On a clear Thursday, I decided to try out being a mini train enthusiast. The location-based game I'm addicted to has a new mission, so I started my mini train adventure from the subway station. I ended up at Suminoe Park Station for lunch. I saw a big sign for a ramen shop and decided to go for it. The shop was crowded when I arrived at 12:40, and I was the 7th person in line. As I waited, more people joined the line, including some colleagues. I ordered a large char siu ramen with extra garlic chives and kimchi on the side. The atmosphere was great, and the food was delicious. The service was top-notch, and the staff seemed to be a family working together. Overall, it was a fantastic dining experience.

I have been to Tentenyu in Kyoto, but is there any relevance? There are few parking lots around, yet it was full by noon. Maybe it's popular among locals. The turnover is fast, so I was able to sit down quickly. They use a prepayment system where you order your menu before being seated. I ordered the Chashu Ramen for 850 yen. They brought a small plate of chopped leeks first. Then the ramen was served. The amount of pork bone soup was a bit too much. The entire bowl was covered with chashu, but it sank when I took out the noodles. The soup was a light pork bone flavor. The noodles were straight and thin with a low water content. It tasted like typical Chinese ramen. The chashu was tender and delicious! I enjoyed the pork bone ramen. It was a delicious ramen shop loved by locals.

Arrived at 11:15 on a regular day and joined 4 others waiting. By 11:26, we were asked for our orders at our seats after paying. A plate of garlic chives was served as a service (?). At 11:30, the Chashu Ramen Large for 950 yen (tax included) was served. The bowl was filled to the brim with soup. The ramen had 7 slices of chashu with lean meat and was topped with bean sprouts and green onions. The noodles were medium-thin and straight. The soup had a rich pork bone soy sauce flavor. It was delicious! Adding garlic chives and the red condiment on the table enhanced the soup's flavor. It was simple but addictive in its deliciousness, which explained the long lines. The gyoza was 200 yen for a serving, and the regular ramen was 700 yen, making it a great value for the quality. It was delicious, thank you for the meal!

Arrived around 13:20 on a regular day, but there was still a wait. They took our order right before we were seated. After being seated, it took about 20 minutes to be served. I ordered the regular size ramen with half rice, and it came with a side of spicy leeks. First, I tried the soup. It was a light tonkotsu broth common in Osaka, with a stronger pork bone flavor than "Yokozuna". The noodles were medium-thin straight noodles, and the chashu was average. Despite having a traditional and cozy atmosphere for a small restaurant, the service was incredibly slow. They only have a few menu items that require cooking, like ramen and gyoza, yet the wait was long. The slow service also affected the turnover rate, leading to long lines forming outside. They even had a sign saying "It will take some time" posted, but it was still busy when we left. It's definitely a popular spot.

I arrived at 10:35 and there were already over 30 people waiting for the 11:00 opening. The half rice for 100 yen is amazing, especially with the delicious garlic chives as a topping. The Char Siu Ramen for 850 yen is really delicious. I feel like the amount of Char Siu has decreased recently, but it's still great. I had a satisfying meal! Thank you!

The shop had been closed for a while, but when I passed by recently, there were people lining up. I visited on another day and ordered Char siu ramen, gyoza, and half rice. The serving of garlic chives kimchi had changed to a small dish. I wish there was a bit more. The gyoza was delicious but be aware that it has a strong garlic flavor. The Char siu ramen was still delicious as always. I noticed a new menu item as I was leaving... Next time, I'll try the mini Char siu bowl!
