Kasugai, Aichi, Japan｜Menkichi

Just Chinese soba? You can enjoy a cup that is healed by the gentle taste. If you feel that the taste is weak, try pepper, ginseng vinegar, garlic, and chili oil. Garlic is recommended! The noodles and soup are delicious here, but the menma is delicious, so if you like it, please try it with additional toppings. It's amazing that one flavor can last so long. This is a wonderful ramen shop that is loved by the locals.

The shopkeeper here is the second generation, and the first generation is his father. A few years after the first generation passed away, his son revived it, It is a store with a very moving episode. The shop looks like a big house, There are only 10 counter seats in the store. I slipped into the only vacant seat and ordered Matsu 800 yen. It was a rainy weekday afternoon, but the sight of customers coming in and out proves the popularity of this restaurant. Instead of the four-chamber circular colander that is often seen in the Korai system, I boil the noodles in a regular pot. [Pine] When you think of korai-kei, you think of light soup, This soup has a strong emphasis on chicken bones and pork bones. This is a very filling cup. I guess I should call it sloppy. Although it seems like there are many older fans, This is a soup that even young people will fall in love with. The noodles are medium-thick curly noodles, but each one is short. What's more, it's so slippery that it's quite difficult to eat. Unfortunately, this store had plastic chopsticks. There are no particular complaints about the important taste and texture. The char siu has a melt-in-your-mouth texture and a rich flavor. This presence alone makes it worth eating. I think I understand the reason for its popularity. Thank you for the meal.

I like korai-style food and have been there several times, but the ingredients, soup, and taste are perfect to my liking. The food couldn't be any better, and the customer service from the mother is so loving and cozy. Revisit in September 2023 The store owner had one surgery. Is your mother okay? I’m worried. I went to another store since last time. ramen Menkichi is No. 1 in Aichi Prefecture
