I am in Kitami, trying to conquer all the ramen shops in the area. I am not here on purpose, it's for work. The only places left are the pachinko parlor and a ramen shop that specializes in night service. I don't like pachinko parlors, so I saved it for last. "Dynam" is the name of the place, but I have never even stepped foot on its premises. I wonder where the dining area is located. As I approach the building and park my car, I can already see the sign from a distance. It seems they serve soba and curry, but there is no ramen sign. I think to myself, "I wish they didn't have ramen at all." I enter and sit at the counter. There are only miso and soy flavors available, so I ask for "shio" (salt) ramen. The lady serving me doesn't react to my joke. I order the soy sauce ramen and pay upfront. The place has a radio playing in the background. The ramen arrives quickly, with a light-colored soup that looks like instant ramen. The lady serving me seems young. The toppings are disappointing, with bland menma and oversized, cheap-tasting nori. The noodles are thin and cheap, with a small portion. The speed of service seems to be the priority here. The roast pork is as expected. The soup tastes like a commercial product, with the only saving grace being the lard. It's clear that this ramen place caters to customers in a hurry, possibly from the nearby pachinko parlor. The lukewarm, light soup and soft noodles are probably preferred by those looking for a quick meal. The lady serving me seems to understand this and ensures a quick and easy transaction. The ramen may not be delicious, but paying upfront allows for a clean break after finishing the meal. I learned a lesson about life from the ramen at the pachinko parlor. It's like paying compensation upfront to avoid any lingering issues. Thank you for the lesson. If it were 500 yen, the rating would be 3.0, but at 590 yen, it's a 1.5.
