Hikone, Shiga, Japan｜麺類をかべ

I went into Noodles wo Kabe, a restaurant that is rumored to be the birthplace of Omi Champon. For a moment, the inside of the store looks like a snack? I sat at the counter and the table seats, and while I was sitting at the counter, I ordered ``Champon and vegetables,'' and as I waited while watching TV, what came out was a large bowl of vegetable champon. This Champon is delicious. The noodles are thin and the soup is light. It is very healthy because it uses vegetable ingredients. The soup was also very delicious. I've decided that I'll definitely come back next time I come to Hikone. I want to eat gyoza next time too.

It stands in a corner of the Ginza shopping district, which retains the vestiges of the Showa era. Hikone Champon? Omi Champon? It is said to be the origin of the. When I looked at the history on wiki, I saw a lot of things... We arrived at 11am, just after opening, so it was reserved for everyone. Of course I ordered Champon! I decided to add 100 yen and have more vegetables. The clear soup of bonito and kelp is loaded with vegetables, so it's super light, and the umami that mixes with the medium-thin noodles will last a lifetime! But be careful as there are surprisingly many noodles. I tried a lot of vegetables, but I was still pretty full. I realized later that adding vinegar gave it a different flavor. That's for another time. After the meal, I was talking with the shop owner and the shop owner, and they said that they couldn't survive on the current prices due to the recent rise in prices. There is also a wave of price increases here... I hope they can continue running the shop for a long time without overdoing it.

This shop is said to be the originator of Omi Champon. It is run by an elderly couple and has a homely feel. Champon is a super light soup with lots of vegetables and is delicious. There is quite a lot of volume.
