Soy Sauce Ramen with Large Helping of Vegetables -Baikohken Head Office in Asahikawa-

Baikohken head office (梅光軒本店) is a long-established ramen restraunt along Asahikawa heiwa-dori shopping street and was founded in 1969. There is a building near Asahikawa station. It features the double soup that mixed pork stock with fishery products (kombu and small dried sardine) stock. They won the 1st Asahikawa Ramen Grand Prize that held by Hokkaido economy (第1回北海道経済旭川ラーメン大賞). It is known as very popular ramen restraunt that customers always fomr a long line. I visited here around 17:00 on weekdays. But there were already 5 groups of visitors. Baikohken head office was popular as I expected.

There are some tables at the ramen restraunt, so family customers seem to enjoy. But long lines are expected at lunchtime. The interior decoration showed a lot of red. I sat at a counter seat and asked a waitress about ramen restraunt's recommendation. She replied "Soy Sauce Ramen (醤油ラーメン)". But soy sauce ramen had some kinds. I could not decide because every ramen looked so good. After thinking it over for a while, I ordered the soy sauce ramen with vegetables (野菜醤油ラーメン). The price was JPY 930.

Approximately 10 minutes later, the soy sauce ramen with vegetables was served. The ramen was topped with a large helping of the vegetables. That was a surprise. Besides, vegetables were large. Bamboo shoots were large, too. Noodles were whitish homemade noodles. I felt that the soup was salty first, but I gradually ate it and enjoyed eating. I was full.
