Kitakata Shokudo
There is a whiskey seminar in the evening today, so I took paid leave and went out in the afternoon.
The first place I came to was ``Kitakata Shokudo”.
The nearest station is Shinbashi Station, but it is located a little further away from Hamamatsucho, in a bar district and out of the center.
As the name suggests, this is a Kitakata ramen shop.
Business hours are 7:00 to 15:00 and 17:00 to 21:00 on weekdays, and this is a shop that carries out Kitakata's morning ramen culture in Tokyo, where you eat ramen from the morning.
On Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays, we are open from 7:00 to 15:00 without closing at night.
Personally, I often visit Shinbashi for drinks on weekends and holidays, so I was interested in it, but until now I had not been able to visit due to lack of timing.
On this day, I visited around 14:00 on a weekday and was able to enter the store without waiting.
Soy sauce ramen+Tennen Otoro Zuke-don (Marinated Fatty Tuna Rice Bowl)
The ramen itself is ``soy sauce” and “Miso” is a Kitakata ramen shop, and you can enjoy tuna such as otoro and toro taku.
Following the rule that the top left of the ticket machine is the restaurant's recommended menu,Soy sauce ramen + Tennen Otoro Zuke-don (Marinated Fatty Tuna Rice Bowl) (1,290 yen)” was selected.
Normal “Soy sauce ramen (790 yen)” Therefore, I have high expectations that I can eat otoro for 500 yen.
Please note that the ticket machine only accepts cash.
When handing over the meal ticket, the soup is ``Relaxing or refreshing” you will be asked.
Marutari is made with back fat, while Sukiri is without back fat.
This time, “Relaxing” was selected.
The rice bowl was served in about 5 minutes after handing over the ticket.
Let's get it then.
Soup
『Relaxing”, so it contains quite a bit of backfat.
The flavor of the chicken and the richness of the soy sauce are complemented by the back fat, which adds a nice richness.
I think it's completely up to you whether there's back fat or not.
Noodles
The noodles are curly and are about medium thick.
It has a smooth slurping sensation typical of Kitakata ramen, and a chewy texture that feels chewy when you bite into it.
Chashu (Braised Pork)
The parts were roses, and there were 2 pieces.
It had a chewy texture and was delicious enough to be eaten as chashu noodles.
Tennen Otoro Zuke-don (Marinated Fatty Tuna Rice Bowl)
Well, I was curious about ``Tennen Otoro Zuke-don (Marinated Fatty Tuna Rice Bowl)” Shall we go get it?
The name isTennen Otoro Zuke-don (Marinated Fatty Tuna Rice Bowl)', but it consists of 2 slices of lean meat, 2 slices of fatty tuna, and tuna.
I could feel the acidity, so I was sure it was vinegared rice, and it was slightly colored, so I guess the rice was made with red vinegar.
lean meat
Red meat is topped with mustard.
Pairing tuna with mustard is quite common at counter sushi restaurants, so it's quite elaborate.
However, the taste of the tuna itself was weak, with only the slight scent of nikiri soy sauce and mustard.
Ootoro
Let's get the favorite fatty tuna.
When you put it in your mouth, the fat melts and you can feel the sweetness of the fat, but I also get the impression that the taste of the tuna itself is weak. .
Toro Taku
I'm sorry that it's half eaten. .
Unfortunately, the tuna taste was weak, and the texture and taste were almost like takuan. .
Impressions
"Tennen Otoro Zuke-don (Marinated Fatty Tuna Rice Bowl)" is rare, so I ordered it, but it was a complete waste of time. .
Although they showed a lot of attention to detail, I felt that the essential taste of the tuna was weak. .
However, the ramen is delicious, so I would like you to come and try the ramen.
There aren't many Kitakata ramen shops in Tokyo. .
I apologize for comparing it with chain stores, but...Kitakata Ramen SakauchiThe quality is high compared to ``Kitakata Ramen'' and will satisfy your craving for Kitakata ramen.
Next time I would like to visit to try the ``Kiri'' or ``Miso''.
This is a recommended restaurant for ramen, with morning ramen, lunch, and dinner.
