What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

The originator of shijimi ramen, located by Lake Jusan, one of Japan's finest sources of freshwater clams. The broth made carefully from Lake Jusan shijimi clams and kelp is clear, gentle, and without any unpleasant smell. Known nationwide as the founder of Aomori shijimi ramen, featured multiple times on TV. Yahoo Maps 4.07 stars. Only 2 locations (main store + Hirosaki), a popular local-style ramen shop, not a high-end restaurant.

Many reviews praise 'a clear broth where the umami of shijimi clams and kelp dashi are exquisitely balanced.' Warm and friendly service also well-regarded. Popular also for purchasing shijimi clams as a souvenir from Aomori. Winter closing is 17:00—note for tourists. Ample parking. High credibility from multiple TV features.
