Today is a certain day in early January 2024.
On this day, I came to Okachimachi Station to buy food for dinner.
When it comes to seafood in Ueno and Okachimachi, Ameyoko is the place to go, but I never buy seafood at Ameyoko.
Many people visit Ameyoko during the year-end and New Year holidays to buy seafood, but in recent years it has been featured on social media as being of poor quality. .
I also once bought Sukkasuka's lobster. .
We recommend just enjoying the New Year's atmosphere at Ameyoko and shopping at Yoshiike.
Here you can buy fresh seafood and vegetables that are not readily available.
A quick look around the store revealed that there was plenty of what we wanted, so let's head to lunch first.
When you get tired of the slightly more luxurious New Year's meals, what you want to eat is Jiro-style food.
It's still the year-end and New Year holidays, so many Jiro restaurants are closed, and even if they're open, they'll probably be crowded.
In such cases, Jiro Inspire and Jiro series are useful.
The area between Ueno and Okachimachi is full of 3 Jiro stores, although there is no direct Jiro store.
Ramen Yellow Okachimachi store
The taste of Butayama varies slightly depending on the store, but I eat it all the time, so I'll skip it this time.
Ramen Yellow is slightly far from the station, so this time we will choose ``Ore no Ikiru Michi Ueno” I decided to visit.
You buy a meal ticket and then line up.
Since the lunch time had been moved, the restaurant was full, but it was relatively empty with only one person waiting.
We were seated after waiting about 10 minutes.
This time, “Ramen large” was selected.
If you are ordering large ramen noodles, you will be asked for the amount of noodles when you hand over your ticket, so this time I ordered 500g.
Small ramen noodles are 300g, and large ramen noodles can be ordered between 300g and 500g.
The rice bowl is ready in about 10 minutes.
Cole is ``garlic oil』。
I ended up ordering a large bowl of ramen at my first store, so I was scared and quit Yasai Call.
If you order Abra Call, Abra will be served on a separate plate by default.
That's a good visual.
Let's have it then.
It's like I came to inoculate wheat today, so I suddenly took a sip of noodles.
It felt like egg noodles.
The texture is more like miso ramen's curly noodles made thicker like Jiro's, rather than the crispy texture of Jiro's.
Honestly, I didn't like it because I was looking for a more grainy, wheaty flavor.
The vegetables were pretty crappy.
Serve as an abra salad with a separate plate of abra.
The pork is lean and lean, but so soft that it falls apart and you can't get your teeth into it.
It's quite large, so it's worth eating.
The soup had a rather sweet impression, perhaps due to the influence of oil.
Add the kaeshi on the table and adjust to a salty soy sauce taste.
It is said that it is more Fujimaru type than Jiro type.my way of life” However, I felt that it was definitely not Jiro-type.
Overall, I felt that the sweetness of the soup and the egginess of the noodles combined to make it too mild.
I've never been to Fujimaru, so I'd like to try it next time to see if it's a similar strain.
By the way, we bought some oysters at Yoshiike Pond and immediately enjoyed an evening drink.
Supermarket oysters tend to have a strong taste or a weak taste, but these oysters have less taste and have a strong taste.
The bag looks small, but there are about 7 to 8 oysters inside.
One bag costs 850 yen, so each piece costs about 100 yen.
As expected, it's a little inferior to the ones served in the shell at restaurants, but if you can get a similar taste at this price, I'm satisfied.
By the way, oysters with shells are also sold at Yoshiike, so if you have an oyster knife, we recommend oysters with shells on.
