A very rare shop that offers different genres of ramen such as Hakata pork bone ramen, tsukemen, and spicy miso ramen. Unlike chain stores, each ramen has a high level of originality and quality. They also provide an entertaining finishing touch by adding rice, cheese, and a hot stone to the remaining soup from the tsukemen. The parking lot is located about a 2-3 minute walk from the shop, making it convenient for frequent visits.

I went around 2pm. I ordered beef yakiniku tsukemen and rich miso tsukemen. You can choose from whole wheat noodles, golden noodles, haru yokoi, and white noodles, so I chose haru yokoi and white noodles. Haru yokoi noodles were flat and had a good chewiness that went well with the rich soup. The white noodles were smooth and the soup was rich, but the noodles were refreshing and easy to eat. There seemed to be a system called "HONBAN" for flavor variations, but I was too full to try it. I will definitely go back!

◆Exploring Ramen in Tokyo⚫︎Yoshihoshi (Musashino-dai, Fussa City) RAMEN: 790 yen (Super Rich Tonkotsu)◾︎Food Beast Maro

I visited this restaurant in search of tsukemen. They have a parking lot where you can park a few cars, but it's a bit far from the store, so it's better to check and park closer. When you enter the store, you first purchase a food ticket, and there is also a ticket for the "main event". The atmosphere of the owner is friendly, and there are explanations and recommended combinations in the store, making it easy to understand even for first-time visitors. You might wonder what the "main event" is, but it's like the final dish. There are various types of "main events", and they are delicious in more than one way.

I visited Mr. Yoshihoshi's restaurant after a long time. It is located along the Sangyo-doro in Fussa, with a parking lot for 6 cars a short walk from the store. When I arrived at noon, there were already 8 customers, with about 6 of them being foreigners. The location is close to Yokota Air Base, so there are many foreign customers. The restaurant has a lot of colorful decorations and has been upgraded with more English signs. I decided to try the recommended dish, the "Toro Tsukemen" for 900 yen. You can choose from 4 types of noodles when purchasing your meal ticket at the vending machine near the entrance, and this time I chose the "whole wheat noodles." The owner was cooking diligently and even made jokes in broken English while serving customers. After a short wait, my dish arrived. The thick dipping sauce was based on pork bone with a thick texture and a sweet flavor, which was delicious. The whole wheat noodles were slightly soft with a wavy texture. The toppings included slightly grilled pork char siu, bamboo shoots, chopped seaweed, sprouts, and green onions. Especially when eating the sprouts with the noodles, the crunchy texture was enjoyable. Overall, the sweetness of the dipping sauce was quite to my liking and delicious. After finishing the noodles, I tried the owner's recommended "Honban" for 50 yen. According to the owner, you can't say you've truly eaten at Yoshifusa without trying the "Honban." The "Honban" is like a soup split, and you can choose from "Japanese-style," "Korean-style," and "Italian-style." I chose the safe option of "Japanese-style." The remaining dipping sauce was mixed with a hot stone, and it bubbled as seaweed and a rice cake-like mochi were added. I enjoyed the delicious soup in a different form. After finishing the meal, the owner eagerly asked if I enjoyed it and recommended trying a different flavor of "Honban" next time. Despite his strong preferences, the owner's enthusiastic and dedicated attitude is endearing. Thank you for the meal. I will visit again.

I visited "Kippoushi" in Fussa City, Tokyo. The parking lot is a bit far from the shop, so it's good to check in advance. There was a sign saying to buy a meal ticket in front of the shop and then wait in the parking lot. The shop was crowded, mostly with American soldiers from Yokota Air Base. The owner, an elderly man, had a unique character, chatting casually with the soldiers. Inside the L-shaped counter, there were two young female staff members working efficiently. The shop had an English menu, reflecting the local area. The owner had a distinctive character, reminiscent of comedians like Chuo Hongo and Yoshiji Suzuki. The water was self-service, and the spicy miso ramen had a scale of spiciness up to 7 levels. The most challenging level 7 was called the Death Star, and if you conquered it, your photo would be displayed. The tonkotsu ramen had a rich pork bone soup, which was delicious. The spicy miso ramen was served with chashu, kaiware, green onions, menma, and cold tofu. The soup was spicy with a hint of pork and seafood flavor. The minced meat added a nice touch, but it was quite spicy. The miso was rich and flavorful, making the ramen very tasty. The noodles were thick and curly, perfect for soaking up the soup. I shared it with a friend who could handle spicy food, as it was too much for me. The owner suggested adding wasabi, cheese, or curry as toppings, which my friend didn't quite understand. I asked for the "main event," which was a rice dish with a stone grilled meat miso topping, and it was delicious. I should have drunk more of the soup, as it was so good. The owner's character was entertaining, and I would love to try their tsukemen next time. The experience was enjoyable, and the food was excellent. Thank you for the meal!

My fateful encounter with Hakata ramen was about 30 years ago. At that time in Fussa, there were only shoyu and miso ramen, and even the miso seemed suspicious. There may have been salt ramen, but I only knew of "Sapporo Ichiban Salt Ramen." Probably everyone in Fussa at that time was like that. Such a half-hearted countryside Fussa was suddenly graced by the appearance of a ramen shop called "Hakata Ichiban," known for its tonkotsu flavor. My father took me to this shop, which, to put it kindly, did not have a clean appearance. The walls were covered with hand-drawn manga characters and posters with a tremendous amount of information written on them. The recommended dish was the tonkotsu ramen with chashu. The chashu was too expensive for me to have all to myself, so I reluctantly shared it with my siblings. But because I shared it with my siblings, it tasted even better. Unfortunately, I don't remember the taste of the tonkotsu ramen. I was so engrossed in eating that it must have been delicious. If there was a heart mark at the bottom of the bowl, you could get a 100 yen discount ticket or a gyoza exchange ticket, which made me happy. Changing the subject, the other day I tried the ramen at "Nandenkanden" in Koenji, and it was surprisingly delicious. If I had eaten this kind of tonkotsu ramen in a region or era where it didn't exist, it would have been shocking. I think "Hakata Ichiban" in Fussa at that time was the same. Truly a shocking taste. As a boy, I had feelings of admiration for the owner. He was so kind, made delicious ramen, always had long lines, and was good at drawing. I thought, "Wow, this guy is amazing!" From then on, as I entered junior high school and started going out with friends instead of my parents, I naturally stopped going to "Hakata Ichiban." Before I knew it, it had closed down, but I didn't feel sad or anything. At that time, going to school and playing with friends was fun, so I didn't have time to think about it. But now, living in Fussa with a family, whenever I pass by Kamihira, I remember "Hakata Ichiban" and how delicious it was. After that, I have eaten a lot of other Hakata tonkotsu ramen at different shops. There was also a "Hakata Ichiban" in Tachikawa and Musashimurayama. Among them, "Ue wo Muite Ikou" in Hamura City was mentioned on a local TV show called "Nishitama Marukajiri," and I thought that they must have trained under the owner there. I still visit there occasionally. (The owner mentioned that he runs the shop with his son and daughter.) There is also a local TV show called "Nishitama Marukajiri," where a ramen shop called "Yoshinoroshi" was introduced, and when I looked at the monitor, I saw the same old man from that shop. The next day, I went to eat there. The eccentric and kind old man was still the same. I'll definitely go back to eat there again.

Enjoyed Tonkotsu Ramen at Magician in Fukasai City (*≧∀≦*) I used to be obsessed with Ramen Ichiban, which is now gone, and the owner now runs this shop. While the tsukemen is popular, I wanted to try the Tonkotsu Ramen from back in the day. The pork bone soup was rich and creamy, without any unpleasant smell, just like I remember. It brought back nostalgic memories and I even shed a tear (；∀；) I was so hooked back then that I even asked if I could work part-time. The noodles were delicious, and I debated getting an extra serving, but went for the "Honban" recommended by the owner. The famous "Honban" comes with a choice of cheese, curry, or wasabi on rice. They leave some soup in the bowl, then add hot stones, rice, powdered cheese, and cheddar cheese. Mixing it all together creates a creamy, cheesy risotto-like dish with a double richness of pork bone and cheese (☆∀☆) There are many menu options, with different types of noodles for the tsukemen. I look forward to trying something new next time. The owner was friendly and grateful that I remembered the original taste. He even casually mentioned a new menu item for LINE friends only. It was a night that warmed both my heart and body. Thank you for the delicious ramen and the complimentary sweets O(≧∇≦)O

The actual performance...what a sweet sound...a shop run by an eccentric old man. The menu is also eccentric, but basically delicious. I visited for the first time in 3 years. I thought nothing had changed...but the customer base was all foreigners. And there was a lemon tea server exclusively for foreigners. I had the spicy miso ramen. Yeah, it's delicious. The spiciness is just right, and the flavor of miso comes through nicely. Even though the spiciness is already enough for most people, the foreigners were ordering level 4 and above...I made sure to enjoy the experience to the fullest before leaving. Thank you for the meal.

Spicy miso ramen, was it Big Bang? Noodles coated in spicy paste leave you feeling exhausted. Finally, if you say "for the main event!" they'll add grilled rice and create a piping hot porridge for you to enjoy.

The spiciness level of the Tengoku Miso Ramen Level 3 is similar to the Mokotanmen Nakamoto's Mokotanmen.

I want you to eat everything from the main dish to the soup-wari zosui!

Seasonal limited snow miso ramen with cheese in a hamburger!? The finale is curry! (≧∀≦)ノ

■ Torotsuke Ramen 3.5 ===========

When you enter a store, there are various things written, right? The ramen was neither good nor bad. Am I the only one who feels like I have to eat it nervously?

The ramen made by the enthusiastic owner is a must-try! When you enter, you will be overwhelmed by the numerous POPs (ramen information) plastered on the walls. I have tried the creamy tsukemen and tonkotsu ramen, both of which have a strong flavor with depth, and were very delicious. I hope the owner stays energetic and continues to make delicious ramen in the future.

2017.01 Issue #369 Visited shops transferring from Keio Line to Nambu Line to Ome Line, finally arrived at Fussa Station, which was supposed to be a 10-minute walk away (lol). I wonder how many decades I've been wanting to visit this shop (or rather, this shop owner's shop)? In the Tama region, you can still feel the breath of the "Tamazou lineage" in the shops. As a predecessor, MG Mejiro-dai shop was the main force, but there was a "Number One series" shop with a confusing ticket machine that focused on Japanese pork bone broth. The founder of that shop closed the former Kamihira shop "Fussa Ichiban" and started "Yoshinoroshi". In that sense, is this also a pilgrimage site for me? I probably walked for about 40 minutes, finally arriving in front of the shop a little after 1 pm... Detours are inevitable in life and on the road to Tabelog. Surprisingly, the shop looks plain... If we talk about the past, it's just that the times didn't catch up with him, but this shop owner was undoubtedly an outlier in the ramen world, a shop that could be considered the goal of noodle making. The shop interior is dimly lit and not exactly clean. At the counter in an inverted L-shape, three customers, including two girls, are already slurping noodles. To the right as soon as you enter, there is a confusing ticket machine that somehow reminds me of the past. Perhaps due to the location, there are also English letters, but I wonder if this is correct for the shop owned by the shop owner. After much deliberation, I ordered the "Koku Miso Tsukemen for 920 yen" and chose the "whole wheat noodles" at the counter in the back right. The shop owner, the young lady, and a part-time worker were in the shop. The young lady instructed me to choose from four types of noodles (golden noodles, whole wheat noodles, Haruyokoi, white noodles), and I chose the whole wheat noodles. I forgot the detailed information about each one ^^; After a short wait, the two girls next to me seem to be getting ready for the "main event". In this shop, ramen and tsukemen are the opening act, and the subsequent extra rice? Ramen tea? is called the "main event" and is positioned as a specialty of the shop. There are three finishes: "Japanese-style," "Italian," and "Korean-style," and each has a guide on how to eat it. Apparently, the portion is not that large, and the two girls were eating it happily. Finally, the long-awaited moment arrived, and I was able to eat at the shop owned by the shop owner (happy). The bowl of noodles looks like it's about 250g? The thick square noodles are a pale color. Toppings include Kaiware, nori, chashu, and menma. When I tried pulling out a strand of noodles and eating it, it had a delicious, fluffy aroma, and it wasn't particularly firm, so I think it's on the softer side for tsukemen noodles. The soup is a bit light, and there are green onions, leeks, grilled cheese, bean sprouts, and cabbage hidden somewhere, although they are not visible on the surface. The thick soup has a high viscosity, and when you dip the noodles and eat them, as the shop owner described, it is sweet. It's like sweet miso dango sauce, but with a more aggressive flavor? I had never tried sweet tsukemen before, and at first, it felt a bit strange, but it was delicious in its own way. The noodle portion was light, and it disappeared in no time. I wanted to save some for the young lady, but I ended up asking the shop owner for the "main event" (lol). After returning the dipping sauce and waiting a while, the bowl came back. There were three grilled stones, a little rice, and sliced nori. I was expecting a bit more volume, but I was a bit disappointed by the expectations of the word "main event" (lol). The shop owner explained that you should start as it is ===========

This evaluation is (tentative). There are too many posters (POP) flooding the place. It's overwhelming to choose at the ticket machine. There are many types of noodles, such as white noodles, whole wheat, Haru-yo-koi, and golden, making it hard to know what to pair them with. I couldn't decide even after looking at reviews, so I pressed the button for the popular No. 6 tonkotsu dipping noodles. The noodles are thick golden noodles. There's a sign saying to go to the parking lot after ordering, so I followed the pouch guide to park my car. It's really difficult to find the parking lot. Refer to the photos uploaded by other reviewers. Now, after 7 minutes and 30 seconds of boiling, the golden noodles and tonkotsu dipping sauce arrive. The sauce is slightly lukewarm with a strong sour and salty taste, but it goes well with the thick noodles. It's usually not good when the sauce is lukewarm, but for some reason, it tastes good. Is it because of the noodles or just a coincidence? As I was pondering how to evaluate it, the owner, who was muttering something, said, "The real deal comes after you finish eating," so I returned the dipping sauce? "Is a Japanese-style one okay?" the lady asked. ?? The bowl came back from the kitchen, and the soup is simmering. It seems like they added a heated stone. "There's wasabi at the back, so please try it with sesame later," said the owner. I see, the wasabi adds flavor. The owner also shared some trivia about wasabi. As mentioned in the reviews, the reason for calling it the "real deal" is unclear. The taste is indeed good, but the overall picture of the restaurant is unclear. It's a restaurant that fits the word "ultra-unique." I got confused and ended up writing a rare long review.
