WHY IT'S A MESHI MAP PICK
Locals keep coming back. That is the real proof.
地元の人が、通い続ける。それが何よりの証明。
A single-location shop in Awajicho that earned a spot on Tabelog's Ramen Top 100 list in 2018 through quality alone, backed by over 2,100 reviews and a loyal following that regularly empties the pot before closing time.
淡路町本店1軒のみで勝負し続ける矜持が、食べログラーメン百名店2018の選出に結実した一軒。
The menu is built around a compelling contrast: the creamy white chicken broth against the deep umami of the black soy sauce, elevated by imaginative toppings like asparagus wrapped in meat.
スープ切れで早仕舞いすることも多く、その人気ぶりは2,100件超の食べログ口コミ数が物語る。
Starting from 1,200 yen, it stands as outstanding value for the Awajicho area — a bowl with enough personality to keep bringing people back.
鶏白湯の「白」と醤油の「黒」が織りなす対比、アスパラ肉巻きなど独自トッピングの遊び心が1,200円〜という淡路町随一のコスパと相まって、訪れるたびに新鮮な発見をもたらす。
