On Sunday, we stopped by the Machimura Farm Milk Garden on our way back. I had mentioned to my partner before we went that I wanted to have lunch here on the way back, so we were able to stop smoothly. The restaurant is quite spacious. There seems to be an old air conditioner, but the windows were open, allowing the natural breeze to come in. However, the window near where we sat couldn't be opened, so it was quite hot. When we looked at the menu, we were surprised by how cheap it was! My partner decided to order the miso ramen, so I ordered the same. I wasn't expecting much, but when the piping hot ramen arrived, it was actually quite delicious (*≧∀≦*). The amount of stir-fried vegetables was just right, the soup was tasty and I wanted to drink it all! The noodles were thin but chewy! The two slices of chashu were thick! It was delicious, but eating such hot ramen in a place where the wind couldn't come in on a hot day like today was a bit too much (^_^;). When we paid at the register, they gave us a 100 yen discount from the total of 1460 yen, so I wonder if they have a lunchtime discount or something? Two bowls of this ramen for 1360 yen is quite cheap! There used to be a restaurant called Dosanko Ramen within walking distance from my childhood home in Aomori City, and their miso sauce gyoza with lots of garlic was very delicious. That restaurant has moved and is now in Asahi-cho, I wonder if they still have miso gyoza there? I suddenly remembered that. This restaurant also had set meal options, so I'm curious about those too. But next time, I want to try the curry ramen (*^ω^*)

This is a ramen restaurant located in Ebetsu, Hokkaido, along Route 275. I didn't realize that there was a Dosanko chain in Hokkaido, as I had occasionally seen them when I was transferred to Honshu. I visited out of curiosity since I had some business in this area. With a spacious parking lot along the national highway, it seems like a drive-in catering to long-distance drivers with 24-hour service. The menu structure seems different from the Dosanko chain's website, almost like an independent establishment but still retaining the Dosanko name. Since Dosanko Ramen is a shop that spread miso ramen nationwide, I decided to try their Butter Miso Ramen. When the soup was served, it was lukewarm. I could just drink it without blowing on it. The soup had a sharp miso flavor, leaning towards red miso. It had an old-fashioned miso sauce taste. I thought it was light at first, but as I continued eating, I started to feel some richness and depth, although not heavy. Bits of back fat-like substance started to appear, and surprisingly, the butter flavor didn't have much influence, so the soup was quite rich. The soup was strangely delicious and I ended up drinking quite a bit of it. It probably had umami seasoning, but I surprisingly didn't mind it. The noodles were firm with a light curl, not aged, so they were smooth and easy to eat, complementing the soup well. I might not come all the way here again, but if I happen to be in this area during lunchtime, I would like to try it again. Thank you for the meal~(^_^)v

I had miso ramen and gyoza. There used to be a shop in Sapporo called Dosanko, but it's gone now. The Sapporo ramen had a nostalgic light soup, stretchy noodles, bean sprouts, bamboo shoots, and pork belly that resembled chashu. The gyoza with miso sauce was surprisingly delicious back in the day. Overall, it was nostalgic.

2022♡♡25th visit on 3/21 around 5:30 pm. The miso ramen was discounted by 50 yen, which was funny. I started commuting by car, so I want to go ramen hunting, but it's a bit stressful because it's expensive and I can't go often. My work ends at 5 pm, so it's hard to make it in time for the evening opening at 5:30 pm. If I come here, I can go easily. It's empty here, haha. The miso ramen is cheap, so I want to come again, but there are so many places I want to go. Thank you for the meal! *(^o^)/*

Salted Butter Ramen for March 2021 costs 720 yen. Located at the end of Ebetsu along National Route 275, the street is busy with cars, but the restaurant itself is dimly lit. Operating hours are until midnight, but due to the current situation, it is advisable to confirm if they are open after 10 PM depending on the number of customers. The spacious dining area has a Showa nostalgic atmosphere. Although I was hungry and curious about the set meals, I was a bit worried about the rice quality during the late hours when there were few customers. I ordered the ramen, which was ready in about 10 minutes. The soup was surprisingly light, perhaps due to the chilled menma. It was a bit disappointing that the temperature was low. The stir-fried bean sprouts and lean chashu were delicious, and the butter complemented the dish well. Thank you for the meal.

Today I went to work, but I left at 3 pm. However, I have severe pain in my lower back and left leg. I usually take the same route to work at 5 am. Surprisingly, the nearby Seven Eleven was closed. It seems they are not open 24 hours. It's the current situation, I guess. My usual Seven Eleven is still open though. I felt hungry on my way back home, so I made a detour to a ramen shop along Route 275. This was my third visit, and the retro exterior caught my eye. It's called "Dosanko" even though it's not from Hokkaido. It's a ramen chain from Tokyo. I'm a Hokkaido native. Inside, a tall female staff greeted me. I chose a salt-based ramen with chashu for 830 yen. The bowl had chopped green onions, bamboo shoots, bean sprouts, onions, sesame seeds, ground pork, and 5 pieces of chashu. The chashu was more fatty than meaty, resembling pork belly. It was my first time trying chashu. I finished the whole bowl, but I recommend thinking of it as pork belly meat. The ramen had medium curly noodles typical of Sapporo ramen. The stir-fried bean sprouts and onions were delicious. The soup with ground pork was tasty. I should have just ordered a regular salt ramen. Another customer ordered the vegetable stir-fry set, which I've seen before. I might try that next time. The customer seemed to be around my age and arrived on a bicycle. I wonder why someone would ride a bicycle on Route 275. Maybe they live nearby?

On my day off, I stopped by Dosanko Tsukayama store for dinner. I had known about this place for a while, so I was finally able to go there. The restaurant has a large parking lot in front. Inside, there are both regular tables and raised seating areas. I ordered the "Vegetable Stir-Fry Set" for 770 yen and it was the right choice. It was full of vegetables and the meat was delicious. The seasoning was also good, making the rice go down smoothly. It was a nice dinner.

Today I finished work early and decided to stop by "Dosanko" on my way home from Ebetsu to Sapporo via Route 275. I arrived at 2:30 PM and was greeted warmly by the same staff as my previous visit. I ordered the miso ramen for 680 yen, which was served promptly despite the restaurant being busy. The ramen had sliced green onions, two pieces of pork chashu, menma, white sesame seeds, bean sprouts, and onions. The chashu was delicious, the soup was flavorful, and the noodles were typical Sapporo style. Overall, I enjoyed the meal, but be aware that it may be on the salty side for some people. Note: When it snows, it is safer to enter the parking lot from the Ebetsu side rather than the Sapporo side.

Today my workplace was quiet, and I was able to leave at 2:30 pm. My workplace has been relocated to Ebetsu for over 4 years now. Along Route 275, there are two restaurants from Shin-etsu Ohashi to Kanrai Ohashi. I haven't been to these two restaurants yet. Route 275 can be quite scary in winter, with whiteouts making it impossible to see ahead in 4 spots. I've been lucky to only experience this three times in four seasons. For lunch, I had my wife's bento, and now I'm in the mood for ramen. I don't want it to be obvious that I didn't have a proper dinner, so it's a secret from my wife. I arrived at "Dosanko," which has a retro exterior. I didn't have high expectations for the taste. I ordered soy sauce ramen for 680 yen including tax. I was satisfied without using the ticket machine. There are many set meal options. The visual presentation included chopped green onions, two pieces of chicken chashu, menma, bean sprouts, and white sesame. The chicken chashu was a bit tough but delicious. The bean sprouts were crunchy and tasty. The soup, which I found delicious, might be too salty for others. However, I finished it all and found it incredibly delicious. It was a great meal. I highly recommend it for young couples, business dinners, and families with small children. I will definitely be returning.

I'm sorry for not having a photo this time. When I came before, the old man was still cooking and it was a bit slow, but now there has been a complete generational shift. Last time, I remember the son looking like the thinner half of the comedy duo "Warai Meshi," but now it's Michiyo Kawamura. The food is prepared quickly now, so the meals are served hot and have improved. The ramen set menu used to have thinly sliced chashu, but now there are 2 pieces, which is good. Sesame seeds have been added. The soy sauce ramen is now cloudy, resembling a house-style ramen. The noodles used to be like Hokkaido ramen, probably from Nishiyama Seimen, but I would be sad if I'm wrong. Ramen noodles are usually made with alkaline water, which gives them a distinctive yellow flavor. If the noodles are aged for a long time, they turn yellow and become almost transparent, with a strong alkaline water flavor. This chemical flavor gives the noodles a unique and addictive taste, reminiscent of the original deliciousness of ramen. However, they have managed to tone down the strong flavors, making it suitable for everyday lunch without being overwhelming. I wish I had ordered the gyoza to see the effects of the generational shift! If you order gyoza as a single item, they are usually not pre-cooked, so the gyoza here must have delicious sauce. It looks like miso. I might go there today!

I was invited by a senior colleague to go there. They recommended the curry ramen, so I decided to try it. At first, I thought the combination of curry and ramen was a consolation prize, but when I tasted it, it was delicious! The flavor was a perfect match!

Although it's a ramen shop, they also have Genghis Khan (grilled lamb) on the menu! I couldn't decide, so I ended up ordering the Genghis Khan set meal in a large portion. It seems like they grill the meat and vegetables separately, as the vegetables don't have the Genghis Khan flavor mixed in. The well-cooked Genghis Khan meat is served neatly. This taste is exactly like Kanehiro's Genghis Khan. When you're craving Genghis Khan but don't have the chance to eat it often, this could be a good option. Next time, I'll try the ramen since it's a ramen shop after all.

I think I've only ever eaten set meals before. I've never had ramen before! So I ordered the butter ramen for 702 yen, miso flavor! What?! Single ramen is 50 yen off on weekends and holidays!? Oh, today is a weekday. Too bad. ( ´△｀) The ramen has a nostalgic miso flavor and it warmed me up in the -12°C weather. The chashu had a lot of fatty parts, which I like. ★Leave a comment, like, and follow★★ and it will make me happy★ I do not let overall ratings sway my evaluation. No matter how highly rated a restaurant is, if the food is not good, I will rate it as such. Even if the food is delicious, if the cleanliness is lacking or the staff's customer service is poor, I will give it a low rating. I evaluate independently without being influenced by others.

In April of the 29th year of Heisei, there is a restaurant located in Kakuyama, Ebetsu City, on National Route 275. I often pass by the front of the store for work, but based on the appearance of the store, it didn't seem to be thriving. The first visit was with the president of the company I work for. The day before, in the evening, the president ordered, "Don't bring a bento tomorrow. My wife has work, so there won't be a bento." So, the next day at lunchtime, we went to Ramen Dosanko for the first time. I had visited a local store once when I was driving a truck for a mainland delivery in my younger days, but I had never been to a local store. There used to be Dosanjo in Makomanai, right? It closed down. The menu we ordered on the first visit that day was the President's Ramen Set (Miso Ramen and Small Curry) and my own Ramen Set (Miso Ramen, Gyoza, and Half-Fried Rice). When going with the president, taking photos of the food is strictly prohibited. The Miso Ramen is based on tonkotsu and chicken bone broth, with no fishy smell. Perhaps due to artificial seasonings, there is a strong taste of MSG-like aftertaste. It is quite salty. The chashu pork melts perfectly with a mix of lean and fatty meat. The fried rice is okay. On the second visit, the president ordered two items of Genghis Khan and a small rice. The Genghis Khan is enjoyed in a small raised seating area. There is a gas stove, a Genghis Khan pot, and Kanehiro's seasoned Genghis Khan, as well as vegetables like bean sprouts, green peppers, and onions. We added another order of Genghis Khan. For myself, I ordered the Miso Chashu Ramen and Half-Fried Rice. I enjoy the Genghis Khan. Yes! It reminds me of the Genghis Khan I had during my childhood at my father's company's beach trip. I feel like my stomach is about to burst. Perhaps the ramen was too salty, as I drank water until the evening. On the third visit, the president ordered Genghis Khan again. This time, two items as a standalone order. More vegetables are included again. I ordered the Chicken Cutlet Set Plate with five large chicken cutlets, potato salad, cabbage salad, and Western-style mustard. Rice bowl, miso soup, chopstick rest, and pickles. The chicken cutlets are large and piping hot! If not eaten carefully, the crispy coating can cut the inside of your mouth. The chicken meat is juicy despite being breast meat. This time, I also ordered the Zangi Set Meal. This time, it was a visit with a colleague, not the president. This colleague kept asking about the Genghis Khan set meal the president had eaten, so I asked, "Are you going to eat meat today?" He replied, "Yes," so I thought he would order the Genghis Khan set meal and we headed to the raised seating area. There were customers in the raised seating area smoking while waiting for their food. This group of customers lingered even after finishing their meal, smoking and taking their time. The colleague's order turned out to be "Fried Chicken Set Meal!" Huh? "You said you were going to eat meat!" "Huh? Fried chicken is meat, right?" "...". What a hassle! Well then, there's no reason to stay in the raised seating area. We promptly moved to a table seat. Fried dishes take a little longer to prepare. About 5 minutes of waiting? As soon as the customer sat at the next table, they immediately started smoking. I smoke too! However, I don't smoke in a dining hall, especially not in a drive-in. Well, it's the customer base unique to a public dining hall or drive-in. The Zangi Set Meal comes with large fried chicken pieces. The seasoning is slightly light. I drizzle some sauce on it. Still, with a bowl of rice, miso soup, chopstick rest, and pickles, it's only 754 yen! During the daytime, it gets very crowded with employees from nearby factories and plants, as well as truck drivers. I will continue to support the growing Dosanko Ebetsu Kakuyama store!

I said I wanted to eat ramen, but my wife and son at home... On a weekday, I honestly didn't feel like eating ramen when I got home, but I'll go for my son! We went to a one-coin ramen shop near our house, but it closed at 7:30 pm... Rural areas are tough! So, let's go to the famous ramen shop in Ebetsu that recently moved!... But there was a super long line at 7:45 pm! Mumbling, "I want to eat ramen and fried rice!" It wasn't my son, but my handsome wife at home who said that! "Is that about Dosanko?" "Yeah♪♪" "But you know I'm on a diet!" "I know! Gyoza set meal it is!" ... So, I ordered the "Chicken Cutlet Set Meal" which was the "Today's Special Set Meal" and was about 100 yen cheaper, around 680 yen (excluding tax). They have a menu, but there are also handwritten menus on the wall, so be careful! Also, the inside of the restaurant is clean, but the staff (all family members?) are not particularly friendly. The selling point here is definitely the volume! So, here comes the "Chicken Cutlet Set Meal"! Despite being on the smaller side, it came with 2 pieces of chicken cutlet, a bowl of rice, 2 small side dishes, miso soup, and pickles. I managed to finish it somehow. The taste was quite ordinary, but it was sufficient for a set meal restaurant. The handsome wife, as announced, was eating the "Gyoza Set Meal," which was also quite substantial with the chicken cutlet replacing the gyoza! Of course, she finished it like a boss! When you want to eat a lot, this is a convenient place! Thank you for the meal (^o^)

Long time no see! The last time I had Dosanko Ramen was back in high school, so nostalgic. I decided to stop by at 12:06. Luckily, on weekends and holidays, ramen is 50 yen off - what a stroke of luck! I ordered the miso vegetable ramen. There were two men and one woman working, and all the customers were men in work clothes. The tables were almost full. When I tasted the ramen, I thought, "Huh? Was it always like this?" I remember it being saltier and tastier in the past. It's a shame that the flavor has become less punchy. Disappointing, truly disappointing.

I have always been curious when passing by Route 275, and this time I visited for the first time. The parking lot was full of large trucks. The inside of the restaurant was spacious, with raised seating areas and spaces specifically for eating Genghis Khan (grilled lamb). The menu was typical of a set meal restaurant. I ordered the ginger pork set meal, which came with pickles, miso soup, and a side dish. I opted for extra rice, but the portion was huge when it arrived. A regular portion would have been enough. The taste was traditional but delicious. Next time, I would like to try the fried chicken set meal.
