What an impact. It is irresistible for lovers of spicy and sweet foods. Perfect for me. First of all, the ramen soup tastes like a jjigae pot, and it's a little spicy, but it's delicious and delicious! My friend said it's spicy, but I still feel like it's not spicy enough.

They make the original chewy noodle by themselves. I think the chef spends time and effort. See the refined design and rich stock soup of kelp and dried mackerel.

Mild taste suitable for Sanuki. Dried sardines caught in Ibuki (island in Seto inland sea) and locally grown chicken bones are used to make a mild and refined soup. I recommend this noodle when you want to eat mild noodle after drinking.

Under an elevated National Route 176, 'kuso oyaji saigo-no hitofuri' is now the hottest ramen restaurant. (The name means 'a shitty father's last swing') The flavor of freshwater clams and light soup infiltrate gently through my body after drinking.
