Before going to the Daikanyama beauty salon, I searched for "Ebisu Ramen" and saved a lot. After leaving the beauty salon, I displayed the saved ramen shops on a map, and found a ramen shop near my current location, so I arrived there quickly. Is it closer from Daikanyama Station? It seems a bit far from Ebisu Station. There was a statue of Ramses II outside. The shop had a mysterious atmosphere, and the staff were waiting at the entrance. I was guided to the counter. A customer at the counter was drinking Minoh Beer for 715 yen each – they had IPA, Pilsner, Weizen, and Stout. I wondered why they had Minoh Beer. Is this ramen shop from Osaka? I decided to have a beer too! I ordered the Saru IPA for 715 yen. I was undecided on which ramen to choose, but another customer ordered gyoza, so I also ordered it and was told it would take some time. I chose the "Ramen Macro" because I like salty flavors. I chose the option with thick slices of chashu and a boiled egg. The menu described it as the most popular fish-based ramen at the shop. However, many customers at the counter ordered the "Ramen Origin." The "Ramen Micro" seemed like a dark soy sauce ramen. I want to try all the flavors. It had been a while since I had Minoh Beer. The IPA was easy to drink and not too bitter. I discovered that there are "Jinrui Minna Menrui" and "Jinrui Minna Menrui Premium" in Osaka. It seems like the owner likes Mr. Children, as their live performance was playing in the background. Ramen was served, and I doubted the thin chashu. It was actually 1 cm thick, and the neighboring customer who ordered two chashu surprised me with their thickness. Everyone at the counter ordered a "kaedama" for 150 yen. I might not be able to handle two thick chashu, but at that size, one for 200 yen is cheap. So, I also ordered the grilled gyoza for 275 yen. The soup had a mild and gentle taste, with hints of clam-based broth. To order a "kaedama," I think a soy sauce flavor would be better. The soup itself wasn't too much, so a strong-flavored soup would allow for an extra serving. The noodles were smooth, almost like udon. Is this smooth texture important for popular Osaka ramen shops? It's not like Hakata tonkotsu ramen where the noodles run out quickly, but there was enough noodles. I saw that they have a noodle factory inside the shop, so this must be an important point. The gyoza had a seasoned taste, and I was told that soy sauce and chili oil were not needed. I ate it with the provided green onions, and it was a crispy gyoza with a soy sauce flavor. I felt like getting the rice for 165 yen, but I resisted. Next time, I'll try the "Ramen Micro" with a kaedama. The pork bowl for 275 yen also seems tempting. The shop was quite popular, and I saw a line waiting outside at the time of payment. On the way back from the Daikanyama beauty salon, I passed by "Menya Shimada." Instead of going to Naka-Meguro Station, I decided to head towards Ebisu Station. I want to explore Ebisu ramen next time.

I, who have a Kyushu accent, love the tongue. I am satisfied with the sweet and rich soup and the pork belly-like meat. I am addicted to it to the point of using Uber. I'm not sure if it's cost-effective, but it definitely exceeds 1,000 yen. The interior of the restaurant is beautiful. Some women may eat ramen alone. It's fine if it's Jinmen. The beautiful interior, kind service, and for some reason, the atmosphere is perfect for the Ebisu-Daikanyama area.

I had been interested in this shop for a while, so I took the opportunity to visit. It was past 9:00 PM, so there was no wait and I was able to enter without any waiting time, but the inside of the shop was already full of customers. It was my first visit, so I ordered the most popular item, the "macro" ramen, and the Ebisu gyoza. It was said that it would take 7 minutes for the gyoza to be cooked, but the ramen came out too quickly, almost finishing it by the time the gyoza was ready. I thought they could delay serving the ramen a little bit. The soup was a light, clear soy-based broth! The chashu was big and tender! The seasoned egg was elegant! Truly a popular shop! The ramen was delicious! The location is a bit awkward, between Ebisu Station and Daikanyama Station, but I was impressed once again that they can maintain their popularity because the food is so good!

My friends all said it was delicious so I decided to come. Personally, the taste of the ramen was not really to my liking, but it was easy to eat. There were plenty of toppings so I got full. I think I wouldn't mind going to eat there again.

Located about 3 minutes from Ebisu Station, a little away from the bustling downtown area, this popular restaurant originating from Osaka. On this day, I ordered the ramen macro for 1,000 yen. The soup, made with seafood instead of just fish, was delicious. The clam broth added a nice touch, making the base light yet with a deep punch. The noodles were quite chewy and slightly thick, with a generous amount of whole wheat flour mixed in, which is rare. A unique and distinctive taste, truly a popular spot in Osaka. Depending on the timing, there may not be a line, and I would like to try the soy sauce version, micro, next time. Thank you for the meal.

Ramen Gentei, popular ramen shop in Osaka known in the Mr.Children neighborhood. I had been curious about it for a while, and happened to be in Ebisu, so I decided to visit for the first time since they stay open late. I had no information about the ramen itself, so I decided to try the "Original" ramen. The menu described it as a soy sauce ramen that brings out the sweetness, but it was sweeter than I expected. The soup itself is sweet, so even though the noodles and chashu were delicious, the sweetness made it a bit overwhelming... I've never had such a sweet ramen in my life. It was shocking. So when you eat it, I recommend being prepared for that level of sweetness. Haha.

In Osaka, this shop always has a long line and it's hard to get in, but on a Saturday night in Daikanyama, there was no wait to get in. I ordered the Ramen with thick chashu and added a flavored egg. The soup was on the sweeter side with a lot of dried fish powder. They use young fish in their broth, which is why there is almost no fishy taste. When I scooped up the last bit of soup from the bottom, a lot of fish powder came out and made me smile. The noodles were slightly thick and slightly curly germ noodles. The chashu was even more voluminous than in the photos. I was very satisfied. The flavored egg had a good consistency with the yolk starting to solidify. Despite the current trend of rising prices, the price was also pleasing.

I had been curious about this restaurant since I used to visit Osaka regularly, and when they opened in Tokyo and got featured on TV, I was really looking forward to trying it out. I ordered the signature char siu ramen with 2 pieces of char siu. The char siu was impressive with a lot of flavor and a satisfying texture. However, personally, I found the ramen itself to be a bit too sweet, with a strong taste of artificial seasoning, and I couldn't really taste the depth of the soup base. There was a lingering unpleasant feeling in my mouth after eating it, so I don't think I'll be going back. Maybe my expectations were too high, but it was a bit disappointing.

My recommendation is "Genten 2 slices with boiled egg topping & pork bowl & Minoh Beer WEIZEN" at Jinrui Minamenry in Ebisu. #JinruiMinamenry #JinruiMinamenryTokyoMainStore #TheMostLeisurelyRamenShopInTheWorld #TheLastSipOfTheOldMan #RamenGreatWar #NamelessRamen #ThoseWhoBreakTheRulesOfTantanmen #Ippudo #WantToConnectWithRamenLovers #WantToConnectWithTsukemenLovers #Noodlestagram #OsakaRamen #TokyoRamen #MinohBeer #Weizen #CraftBeer

Visit date and time: June 25, 2023 (Sunday) at 1:10 PM. Visited with 2 people, waited outside with 5 others for 12 minutes before entering. Ordered "Ramen Macro" for 1000 yen (tax included) with an additional flavored egg for 72 yen (tax included), and "Ramen Genshi" for 1000 yen (tax included) with an additional flavored egg for 72 yen (tax included). Also ordered the "Osaru IPA" beer for 650 yen (tax included). This restaurant is an expansion from Kansai, and I have been following them since their opening. This time, I had some business in Shinjuku, so I decided to stop by in Ebisu. It seems like they have established a solid presence in this area after 3 years of operation. It was a hot day with temperatures over 30 degrees Celsius, but the turnover was good. While waiting outside, I ordered a beer as my throat was craving for it. The "Osaru IPA" beer arrived, and it was refreshing with a pleasant bitterness. Soon after, the Ramen Macro was served, with a large piece of char siu floating on top, and a surprise of a huge block of pork belly underneath. The char siu was delicious and the soup, made with seafood and light soy sauce, paired well with the smooth homemade noodles. The flavored egg was a bit pricey due to the current market situation, but it was worth it. I later found out that you can choose between thick char siu or thin char siu with flavored egg. Despite the struggle with the thick char siu, it added to the enjoyment of the meal. After finishing the meal, I was completely satisfied and full. Thank you for the delicious meal.

Second time visiting! I came back right away because even though I was full last time, the food was delicious. They easily surpassed the high expectations set from last time!!! This place is the best. I love the sweet soup, the noodles, the toppings, everything. They were playing a live video of Mr.Children this time too, which was nice. And it's great that you don't have to wait in line. What a wonderful restaurant.

Business hours: Mon-Fri 11:00-23:30, Sat-Sun and holidays 10:00-23:30 *Closed when char siu runs out Closed: None Number of seats: 16 seats (4 counter seats, 12 table seats) [Menu] - Humanity Ramen with Low-Temperature Char Siu (served with white rice) 1200 yen - Thick-cut Pork Belly Char Siu (served with white rice) 1300 yen - Thick-cut Pork Belly Char Siu & Low-Temperature Char Siu (served with white rice) 1500 yen I recently visited "Jinrui Minai Menrui Tokyo Honten," which is collaborating with "Ippudo" at four locations in Tokyo and Osaka. I arrived in the early afternoon to find about 15 people waiting in line. With no option for extra noodles and it being lunchtime, the turnover was quick, and I was able to enter in about 20 minutes. The menu offered three options, and when I saw the "Thick-cut Pork Belly Char Siu & Low-Temperature Char Siu," I couldn't resist. When asked if I wanted white rice, I gladly accepted the complimentary offer. The soy-based tare and two types of char siu were from "Jinrui Minai Menrui," while the tonkotsu soup was from "Ippudo." The soup was quite salty, and I couldn't finish it all. I usually leave behind spicy soup, but rarely do I leave behind something salty. Since I had finished the rice, I couldn't make a char siu bowl, so I ended up eating everything. The collaboration ramen "Jinrui Minai Ippudo" is available at the following four locations from June 15th (Thu) to June 21st (Wed): [Participating Locations] - Ippudo Umeda Store - Ippudo Ikebukuro Store - Jinrui Minai Menrui (Osaka, Minamikata) - Jinrui Minai Menrui Tokyo Honten The limited-time collaboration ramen will only be available until today, June 21st (Wed).

According to the Kyoto Railway Museum, on the 18th at around 3:15 pm, a visitor reported that there were scratches on the train cars. The affected cars were the EF81-103 and the SuShi24-1, which were used as part of the Twilight Express. Upon inspection, it was discovered that the words "Takkun Kimo" were written in white lines over approximately one meter on the cars. Hey! Please stop writing "Takkun Kimo" on there! It hurts my feelings too (;´･ω･) Today, I visited "Jinrui Minamenrui Tokyo Main Store" located about a 4-minute walk from Ebisu Station. It seems closer to Daikanyama, though. This ramen shop is a collaboration between the popular Hakata ramen shop "Ippudo" and the Osaka-based ramen shop "Jinrui Minamenrui," brought to you by the "UNCHI Corporation" aiming to open a ramen shop on Mars. This collaboration is available for a limited time from June 15th to June 21st at selected stores in Tokyo and Osaka. I visited during lunchtime on a weekday. There was already a line outside the store. As expected of a popular shop. The mysterious statue that is usually placed outside was not there... I wonder if they are selling it? I ordered the "Jinrui Minamen Ippudo (thick and low-temperature chashu)" for 1500 yen, which comes with white rice. The dish arrived quickly and looked amazing. The chashu was overflowing. It looks delicious. I put on a paper apron and started eating. The first bite packed a punch with a strong umami flavor. The soup is a special soup combining Ippudo and Jinrui Minamenrui's signature smooth tonkotsu and sharp soy sauce base. The noodles are Ippudo-developed thick and chewy straight medium noodles. The chashu includes Jinrui Minamenrui's thick chashu and a new addition of low-temperature chashu. It also comes with seaweed and a half-boiled seasoned egg, with an option for half rice. As I continued eating, the saltiness started to become more pronounced. The strong flavor pairs well with the rice. Is this from Jinrui or Ippudo? It's a strange sensation. I wonder if the taste varies depending on the store? In Ippudo, there might be more of a pork bone flavor. I'm not sure. But it's a new ramen! The low-temperature chashu was also good. Placing it on the edge helps it not get too hot. There were no condiments on the table. The staff provided tissues and water, refilling them as needed. The large chashu is definitely a highlight of Jinrui Minamenrui. It's very satisfying. The price is a bit high, but the quality matches. It would be nice to have this as a regular menu item. I hope they continue to do more collaboration projects like this and keep working on space development! On my way out, I saw the statue downstairs, it was there! I paid in cash at the end. Don't forget to pay before leaving. Thank you for the meal. I'm full and satisfied. Bye-bye!

Today, I visited the restaurant "Jinrui Minna Menrui" that I was recommended at work. This time, they are collaborating with Ippudo, so there was quite a long line. I lined up from 20:42 and entered at 21:38. Since they only offer limited-time menu items, I ordered the "Jinrui Minna Ippudo Thick Cut & Low Temperature" ramen for 1,500 yen. The sweet soup was delicious! It had a strong umami flavor, a bit rich when just the soup, but perfect when combined with the noodles. The aroma of the seaweed was also nice. Eating it as if wrapping the noodles gives a different taste. The low-temperature chashu was tender, with a rich meaty flavor and a good hint of pepper. I could eat a bowl of rice with just this. The thick-cut pork chashu was so tender that it easily fell apart with chopsticks. The lean part had a slightly milder meat flavor, but the fat was delicious! The perfectly marinated melt-in-your-mouth taste was amazing. Everything was delicious, making it hard to decide how to eat the rice. It's a shame that this taste is limited-time only... I will come back next time to try their regular menu! It was delicious!

Limited edition collaboration ramen between Jinrui Minna Menrui and Ippudo from June 15th to June 21st. The sweet base of the soup combined with Ippudo's tonkotsu broth is delicious, but the star of the dish is the melt-in-your-mouth chashu resembling building blocks and the pepper-infused slow-cooked chashu. It's a shame that this menu is only available for a week. #JinruiMinnaMenrui #Ippudo #collaborationramen #ramen #rdb #ramenlover #tonkotsuramen #ramendatabase #tabelog #tabelog35andabove #deliciousrestaurant #food #foodie #delish

I tried the limited-time ramen collaboration dish, "Jinrui Minna Ippudo" (thick-sliced pork chashu + low-temperature chashu)! The thick-sliced pork chashu was tender and delicious, and the low-temperature chashu had a rich flavor. The soup was rich and slightly sweet. The complimentary white rice that came with the meal was popular among both men and women. The restaurant is limited in locations, but if you happen to pass by, be sure to try it out!

I found out on social media that there was a collaboration ramen between Jinrui Minamend and Hakata Ippudo, so I decided to check it out. I had heard that Jinrui Minamend was a famous shop in the Kansai region, so I was surprised to find out they had a shop in Tokyo as well. I arrived around 5 pm and luckily didn't have to wait to be seated. I ordered the thick-sliced & low-temperature pork chashu (menu item on the far right). It arrived in about 10 minutes and was very voluminous! The large chashu hanging over the edge of the bowl looked very appetizing. The soup had the rich flavor of Ippudo's tonkotsu soy sauce. It was flavorful and very delicious. The noodles were also very tasty and went well with the soup. The portion was quite generous, and I ended up feeling very full (laughs). It was fun to see two famous shops collaborating like a festival. I look forward to trying Jinrui Minamend's regular menu next time after having such a satisfying bowl.

Ippudo and Jinrui Shacho Collaboration - Limited to 4 stores from June 15th to 21st. The pork bone soup from Ippudo and the soy sauce-based broth from Jinrui Shacho go well together. The medium-thick noodles and generous amount of char siu provide a satisfying meal. Available only at Ippudo (Umeda, Ikebukuro) and Jinrui Shacho (Nishinakajima Minamigata, Ebisu) until June 21st. Don't miss out before it's gone! #IppudoandJinruiShacho #JinruiShacho #JinruiShachoTokyoMainStore #WorldsMostLeisurelyRamenShop #OldManWithNothingToDo #RamenGreatWar #NamelessRamen #ThoseWhoBreakTheRulesOfTantanmen #Ippudo #WantToConnectWithRamenLovers #WantToConnectWithTsukemenLovers #Noodlestagram

I rarely go to Ebisu, but after drinking there and feeling a bit hungry, I searched for a ramen shop on Tabelog. Although I had never eaten there before, it was a famous shop that I knew from when I was in Osaka, so my expectations were high! When I asked the staff for their recommendation, they told me that they had already sold out of their regular ramen for the day and only had a limited-time collaboration with Ippudo available. They seemed disappointed as they mentioned this. But I was actually happy to hear that they still had the limited edition ramen! The staff asked if it was my first time there, and I mentioned that I think the original ramen is definitely better. They agreed that the collaboration ramen was a bit intense. So, I decided to order the Ippudo collaboration ramen. It comes with rice, but since it was the last dish of my meal, I declined the rice. When the ramen arrived, it looked just like in the photo. It exceeded the expectations of being just a closing dish! The rich-looking soup and the chashu were amazing. The soup was a bit on the sweet side and indeed a bit intense, but not in a bad way. It was a rich flavor that actually stimulated my appetite. The chashu was tender and not greasy, so I could easily eat it in one bite. The noodles were the perfect thickness to soak up the soup. I thought this soup would go great with rice, so I ended up asking for the rice after all. I definitely want to come back and try the original ramen next time!

Before learning the taste of the original ramen at this shop, I tried the collaboration noodles with Ippudo. It might have been my mistake for not researching beforehand, but during the collaboration period, there was no regular menu available, so unexpectedly I ended up having a tonkotsu ramen. However, the combination of sweet soy sauce and tonkotsu was quite delicious, and the salty soup also matched well with the complimentary white rice. I would like to revisit next time to try the regular menu.
