It's true, it's cheap! There are many types of dishes available, and the portions are generous. The food is made to order each time. The "quail fry" was freshly fried, and even the small portion of "penne mentaiko mayonnaise" was cooked and mixed with mentaiko mayonnaise on the spot. The "sauce yakisoba" we had at the end was topped with both bonito flakes and dried seaweed, and the noodles were soft. The portion was generous, and for only 650 yen, it was a great deal. They also offer set menus combining ramen with mini curry or half-fried rice, giving you plenty of options to enjoy before you even start eating. Next time, I think I'll try the ham and spinach butter stir-fry, sausage with mustard stir-fry, mentaiko potato with cheese, ham cutlet, and shrimp cutlet.

Set B for 800 yen includes ramen and half fried rice. The ramen is a typical ramen from a local Chinese restaurant with a noticeable layer of fat floating on top. The toppings include bean sprouts, bamboo shoots, seaweed, and thick slices of chashu pork. The chashu pork was about twice as thick as usual. The fried rice looks rich in flavor at first glance, but it's not as intense as it appears.

Adachi Ward Office is right in front of it, across the Nikko Kaido. A friendly older lady welcomes you. The restaurant is very spacious, with tatami seating where families and groups can relax. I had the mini ramen (rich) + mini curry set for 700 yen. The bean sprouts in the ramen were crunchy and the soup had plenty of sweet back fat floating on top, it was delicious...!! The men were watching TV and enjoying drinks leisurely. Next time, I want to try the special bean sprout ramen or the ginger pork set meal.

I went to a long-established restaurant for the first time. I regret not going sooner. I tried their rich ramen and fried rice, which had a strong and bold flavor that men would enjoy. They also have appetizer options, so next time I might come here for drinks too! Thank you for the meal!

After work, I suddenly felt like eating ramen and found a hidden gem of a shop. As a fan of rich flavors, I ordered the Shota Ramen topped with large pieces of simmered pork belly and char siu. It was even richer than I expected! The soy sauce and back fat-based soup with medium-thick noodles was the perfect combination of rich and delicious. I was thoroughly satisfied with this rich and tasty ramen. Thank you for the meal!

Date: September 11, 2020 (Friday), sunny weather. Second visit, entered at 13:35. No customers when I arrived or after. Ordered the Tanmen for 750 yen. Due to a malfunction in my mobile phone, I spent about 3 hours at a major electronics retailer for an upgrade. It was past lunchtime, so I visited this nearby restaurant for Tanmen. Sat at the counter seat as soon as I entered, where there were 2 other customers who turned out to be the part-time staff having lunch. The owner promptly served water and a paper towel. I ordered the Tanmen after checking the menu. The condiments available were soy sauce, vinegar, chili oil, and coarsely ground black pepper. After about 5 minutes, the Tanmen was served. The noodles were yellowish curly thick noodles, cooked al dente. They had a good chewy texture and a nice wheat flavor. The ingredients included pork, cabbage, bean sprouts, carrots, and leeks. The pork and vegetables were stir-fried, then lightly boiled in the soup. The pork was thinly sliced pork shoulder with little fat and mostly lean meat. The portion was small. The cabbage and other vegetables were stir-fried and then boiled in the soup. There was a generous amount of crispy cabbage with a hint of sweetness. The bean sprouts were cooked until tender, the carrots were thinly sliced, and leeks were also included, but all had a subtle presence. The ratio of vegetables was cabbage > bean sprouts > carrots = leeks. The total amount of vegetables was around 250-280g. The soup had a cloudy appearance with a salty taste and fine white lard floating on the surface. The broth seemed to be made from pork bones, chicken bones, and aromatic vegetables. It had a strong umami taste and saltiness, with a wild touch and a hint of oiliness and a smoky flavor. Overall, it seemed like a Tanmen favored by blue-collar workers. The noodles, ingredients, and soup were all satisfactory. Being a local restaurant, I will visit again. Thank you for the meal!

The photo shows Shota Ramen, priced at 1100 yen. It comes with chashu, seaweed, and bamboo shoots on top of soy sauce ramen. The soup is soy sauce-based with pork back fat.

I had a rich ramen and gyoza. The soup was strong and salty, just the way I like it. The chashu was tender and flavorful. The gyoza was packed with filling and the skin was chewy. Thank you for the meal.
