thebestjapanese energyramen i ever eat hn jpn

Ibaraki Prefecture's local ramen, the originator of stamina ramen. First, [What is stamina ramen? ] ① Sweet and spicy bean paste, ② Ingredients that don't seem to be ramen (pumpkin and liver), ③ Cold medium-thick noodles tightened with water. The contrast between the cold noodles and the hot bean paste, the sweetness of the bean paste, the umami of the vegetables, and the spicy soy sauce is fun, and the strong bean paste clings to the noodles. The addictive sweet and spicy bean paste has a junk feeling and is wild. A unique ramen that combines the healthiness of vegetables. (In addition to cold stamina, hot is also available, but I recommend stamina cold first) The characteristic of Matsugoro is that there are many large livers in the hot bean paste with strong soy sauce. This punch power in the royal road style. Addictive that makes you want to eat so much when you suddenly remember the sweetness. There are various stamina shops in Ibaraki, but Matsugoro is definitely the one! A famous store of stamina that makes you return to the origin circuit every time you eat. There is a parking lot when you pass through a narrow passage (about one car) on the side of the store. Only this entrance is a narrow passage, so I'm worried that the incoming and outgoing cars will not click. Therefore, it is better to start from the lane in the direction of travel that allows you to turn left into the parking lot. (From the opposite lane to Mito city area) The store is also beautiful after the move.
