I'd been curious about this place for a long time but hadn't managed to visit. Finally the timing worked out for my first visit. There was no greeting when I entered, and the staff were unfriendly and chatting with someone who seemed to be a regular, so I thought I'd made a mistake. But when I worked up the courage to ask, “It's my first visit, could you tell me what you recommend?”, they suddenly smiled and kindly explained, “We serve Nagaoka ramen and Tsubame-Sanjo ramen,” and “I like the iwanori chuka too,” so I ordered the iwanori chuka as a set with a chashu rice bowl. What arrived was thick-noodle shio ramen topped with a huge amount of iwanori. It was enjoyable as the crisp seaweed softened in the broth. Then I was surprised to discover onion and grated yuzu as I ate. When I asked, they said these ingredients are common in Tsubame-Sanjo ramen. I don't usually eat shio ramen much, but these pleasant accents kept this one interesting to the end. The chashu rice bowl wasn't bad, although I thought it had few toppings. If I get the chance, I'd also like to try the tsukemen, miso ramen, and Nagaoka ginger ramen. Thank you for the meal!
View on GoogleA shop where iwanori chuka is recommended. It tastes good, but prices are high overall. If it were about 300円 cheaper, I might go again.

View on GoogleSoy sauce and iwanori are a perfect match! It would be fantastic if they could lower the price a little more!
