Kawajima, Saitama, Japan｜Ajitomi Shokudō

Wonderful ramen.

It is a restaurant, but there was a sign at the entrance that said it was a tanmen specialty store. Various types of tanmen, tanmen tsukemen, and side dishes include gyoza, boiled egg, and rice. I stopped by just before noon and had a limited edition of 7 servings of Hatsuko Nanban Tanmen. The soup had a strong salty taste and plenty of vegetables, and the noodles were thick and firm like Champon and very delicious. It came with two pieces of thinly sliced ​​pork loin seasoned with miso and then fried, which was also delicious and paired well with the tanmen, making it a dish that I think you should try at least once. I'm thinking of trying the miso tanmen next time. We had to wait a few minutes before 12:00, but the rotation seemed to be good. There are table seats and counter seats, so I think it's easy to enter even by yourself.

It opened at 11:30 and I arrived 10 minutes early, but it was already open and there were about 4 customers. As the name suggests, the inside of the restaurant looks like a cafeteria and has 25 seats. I was torn between the slightly spicy tanmen and the tyrant tanmen, but it seems that the tyrant is both spicy and numbing, so I don't like it too much, so I ordered the slightly spicy tanmen. The noodles were thick and chewy, and the soup was spicy and delicious with the flavor of the vegetables. It's a bit spicy for people who like spicy food, but it was spicier than I expected. It may be difficult for those who are not good at it. When I came here a long time ago, I didn't think it was very tasty, and I remember that they didn't have spicy menu items, but it was delicious. There are about 15 parking spaces.
