Originator of Miso Ramen and Ramen and Rice Combo Meal -Aji-no-Sanpei in Sapporo-

Aji-no-Sanpei (味の三平) is a long-established ramen restaurant in Chuo ward, Sapporo city. This ramen restaurant locates at a building specialized in stationery called the Daimaru Fujii central (大丸藤井セントラル). I was looking for the old building of the long-established ramen restaurant, I could not find it. The building is new. As for aji-no-sanpei, Mr. Morihito Omiya (大宮守人) who devised miso broth ramen (味噌ラーメン) started a ramen stall in 1950.

Thr price of miso broth ramen was JPY 850. Soup made from pork bones was light taste and had a bit salty. Ingredients were ground pork meat, green onions, onions, bean sprouts and cabbages. I learned from an waiter that I would stir the soup and eat it because miso precipitated on the bottom of the soup the first. As for ramen and rice combo, this ramen restaurant was an originator.
