Chikuma, Nagano, Japan｜Fukusuke

The atmosphere is so good that you wouldn't expect it to be Jiro style ramen. Please note that the business hours are short as it is run by an elderly couple. I was embarrassed to go alone as a woman, so I asked a man to come with me, but my fears were unfounded. The restaurant has a comfortable atmosphere where middle-aged and older couples and young women can often be found, so you can eat right after your bowl of rice and go home right away! It wasn't the atmosphere I was talking about. Most of the men were office workers. When two people couldn't fit in side by side, they quickly moved the seats so that two people could sit together, so even though it was crowded, we were able to enter right away. You can choose the amount, so first-timers and women will probably be able to eat a smaller size than the regular size.

It's been a while. The tsukemen noodles are still weak and soft, so it's not good, but the tsukemen soup is very delicious because it's a muddy soup. Jiro's Fukusuke and Miso Fukusuke are also recommended because they are free of charge with extra vegetables. Toppings such as dried bonito and spicy fried balls are free, but I think that many people do not notice because they are placed around the cash register, but spicy fried balls go well with any menu. The retro interior of the store is also strangely calming.

This is a Jiro-style restaurant. It's a very popular restaurant with many repeat customers, so people are lining up even before it opens. Not only the volume but also the taste will not disappoint. It's so delicious♪
