It's a popular store where there's usually always a line.

今回は平日でもランチタイムを少し時間に覗いてみたら、5人程度待ちでしたので並ぶことにしました。
If there is a line, purchase a ticket at the ticket machine and then connect to the line.
回転率は客層に依存し、女性・お年寄り多めの場合は食べるスピードが遅いので回転率悪く、男性サラリーマンが多い場合は食べるスピードが速いので回転率が良いです。
今回は後者で、5分待ち程度で着席となりました。

Ordering and Payment
Payment method: cash only
Menu
Basically, it's Japanese-style yanagi noodles, and you decide what toppings to put on it.
Cha rice is also available as a rice dish.
Japanese style lily noodles
今回もですが、一番定番の『Wafu Ramen (Japanese-Style Ramen) (780 yen)” was selected.
It seems to be written as yanagimen and read as ramen.
Let's get it then.
Soup
It tastes as light as it looks.
You can really feel the flavor of the bonito stock and chicken bones.
この日は鰹の風味が強い印象を受けました。
It contains mitsuba leaves, which pop into your mouth from time to time, resetting your palate with freshness and allowing you to feel the flavor of the stock again.
ネギはこの中では比較的主張が強いので、ネギなしでも良いかもしれません。
Noodles
Thin noodle straight type.
It has a crunchy texture and a strong wheat flavor.
It also goes well with soup.
Chashu (Braised Pork)
スープはあっさりと優しめなのですが、チャーシューは見た目通りの凶暴なサイズと見た目です。
It has a juicy, fatty, yet fluffy texture.
Although the meat has a firm texture, I get the impression that it is not unnecessarily greasy.
If you save the chashu until later in the soup and let it submerge in the soup, it will add a pork flavor to the soup.
普段好きなものは最初に食べる派の方もしばらくは取っておくことをおすすめします。
Menma
食感は柔らかめで、優しい印象をプラスしてくれています。
Flavored egg
It's 780 yen, but half of it comes with Ajitama (Seasoned Egg).
Thank you very much.
The taste is average, but I can't really complain.
Impressions and Rating
ひょっとこ安定の美味しさでした。
I think the fact that it's too light is a point where tastes differ, but I personally like it.
I think it might be a little too rich for lunch, but I think you can adjust that by making it with char siu noodles.
2軒目に行ってもいいと思いますしね。
個人的にはやや営業時間的に厳しいものもありますが、酒を飲んだ後の〆だったり、飲み過ぎた翌日や二日酔いの日の朝食に食べたいですね。
The store's selling point is ``Yuzu-topped''Japanese-style yuzu yanagi noodles (880 yen)” is also available.
*Since we visited before the price increase, the price may differ from the current price.
以前は柚子はマストと思っていましたが、最近は好みの世界かなと思います。
柚子がない方がスープの出汁感を感じることができるので、ない派になってきました。
It's a little difficult to visit since it's closed on Sundays and public holidays, but be sure to visit multiple times to find your favorite toppings.
