Aji no Gojuban
Established in 1967, this local legend is widely considered one of the top one or two ramen shops in Tomakomai. Their famous curry bean sprout ramen — a Tomakomai specialty — features a pork-and-chicken bone broth with spices, topped with stir-fried bean sprouts, at 1,000 yen. It appeared in the Kodoku no Gourmet New Year's Eve 2022 special, boosting national recognition, but local regulars had been coming long before that. Lunch only; parking for 12 cars.
"When people in Tomakomai talk ramen, they mean this place. Proof of decades of local love." "Came after seeing it on Kodoku no Gourmet — yes, this is the real thing. The curry bean sprouts are a generous serving." "This volume and flavor for 1,000 yen. Tomakomai's pride."
