"らあめん花月嵐" continues its active collaborations, following its success with soy sauce ramen, this time teaming up with "らぁ麺 飯田商店" for a collaboration with the famous fugu cuisine restaurant "玄品." The collaboration resulted in two special dishes: a finishing ramen and a dipping noodle. Both "らぁ麺 飯田商店" and the owner of "玄品," Iida Masataka, put a lot of effort into this collaboration. Below are the details of the events featuring Iida Masataka:
Kanto:
- 8/1 (Mon) - 玄品 浅草 10:00~
- 8/2 (Tue) - 玄品 池袋 10:00~
- 8/3 (Wed) - 玄品 川崎 10:00~
Kansai:
- 8/9 (Tue) - 玄品 法善寺総本店 10:00~
- 8/10 (Wed) - 玄品 大阪梅田東通 10:00~
I made a reservation for the opening day at the Asakusa branch and had a great experience. There were many dedicated regular customers, and Iida Masataka, unlike the strict atmosphere at the main branch, warmly greeted and interacted with everyone.
The menu for the event included the following two courses:
1. "てっちり付きコース 〆のしおらぁ麺" for 6,800 yen:
- Fugu skin with a chewy texture and plenty of collagen.
- Extremely thin fugu sashimi, tender and smooth, using only "とらふぐ."
- Fugu tempura with both bone-in and boneless options, both offering firm and juicy flesh with a rich collagen texture.
- "てっちり" (fugu hot pot) with fugu bones, meat, Napa cabbage, chrysanthemum greens, shiitake mushrooms, tofu, and maroni. The fugu in the hot pot has a unique, strong resilience compared to the sashimi.
- "〆のしおらぁ麺" which uses the rich chicken broth with added salt sauce, served with blanched noodles and condiments. This course includes a special Arita-yaki dish with a unique design depicting fugu and chicken.
2. "焼きふぐと〆のしおつけ麺コース" for 6,000 yen:
- This course includes fugu skin with a chewy texture, fugu sashimi, and a smaller portion of fugu tempura compared to the previous course.
- Instead of the "てっちり," it features grilled fugu bones with meat and skin.
- The "〆のしおつけめん" consists of boiled fugu skin on top of the noodles, served with "コンデンス白子" and a side of condiments.
The noodles are glossy and have a firm texture, with a unique salt blend from "らあめん花月嵐." The "コンデンス白子" paste for flavor variation is exceptional.
For dessert, there are two options: yuzu sherbet and nut ice cream, both well-made and delicious.
Overall, the finishing noodles were outstanding, with attention to detail from Iida Masataka. The "しお" flavor was superb, and the "コンデンス白子" added a luxurious touch.
