Ikebukuro Hirochan Ramen!
Today I am visiting Ikebukuro.
After this, I plan to drink whiskey at the bar, but I don't want to drink straight whiskey on an empty stomach, so I decided to eat first and then head to the bar.
Whiskey has a delicate flavor, so you'll want to avoid strong flavors such as garlic.
I usually eat soba or udon before drinking whiskey, but on this day I felt like eating ramen.
I came up with a ramen that wouldn't leave a strong impression on my mouth, so I decided to try it.Ikebukuro Hirochan ramen!' I decided to visit.
The topic of “Chan-kei” This is a shop.
I don't think Chankei will leave a strong impression on your mouth unless you add table garlic.
I visited around 3pm, but there was no line and I was guided right away.
Chinese noodles + white rice
『Chuka Soba (Chinese-Style Ramen)” and “Shiro Meshi (White Rice)” I ordered.
Although we have a meal ticket system, we are thankful that we can use electronic money.
Just as rice is essential for a family, I believe that food is also essential for a family.
There was no kappa (pickled cucumber) on the table, and it was automatically added when Shiro Meshi (White Rice) was served.
Soup
You can really feel the flavor and richness of the pork.
The fat wasn't too strong and I didn't feel heavy after eating.
A characteristic of Chan-kei is that the soup is poured into the bowl in waves.
Noodles
These are thin to medium thick flat noodles.
It was delicious with a smooth texture and just the right amount of firmness.
Chashu (Braised Pork)
It's not char siu noodles, but it contains a lot of char siu noodles at the level of regular restaurant char siu noodles.
This delicious char siu has a soft texture and a strong pork flavor.
Impressions
It was really delicious.
This is the second restaurant I've eaten Chankei at, previously at Shinbashi's ``New Tomochin” I visited.
If you were to compare, I think the winner would be New and Chin in terms of taste and cost performance.
However, the difference in taste is very small, and while New Tomochin had to wait in line for about 30 minutes, Hirochan Ramen! I think it was due to the time of day, but I was able to enter the store without lining up.
If you want to include this time factor, Hiro-chan ramen! I think so.
Overall, it's delicious, but the negative aspect of both restaurants is that it's extremely hot inside. .
New Tomochin is located in the basement of the Shinbashi Ekimae Building, and there is no door separating the store from the aisle, giving it an open feel.
There is room for improvement if the air conditioning in the passageway or building side becomes more effective, but if the current situation continues, I feel like I will avoid visiting in the summer.
Ikebukuro Hirochan Ramen! is a normal store and there was an air conditioner installed in the ceiling of the store, so I wondered why they didn't turn it on. .
It was a hot day in May when I visited, so it may just be that the air conditioning wasn't working. .
Returning to the topic of taste, I feel that there is no big difference in taste between Chankei.
I've only visited two stores so far, but at least I didn't feel a big difference between New and Chinto Ikebukuro Hirochan Ramen!.
There are several other Chan-kei stores, so I plan to visit them soon and investigate.
