Salt Ramen with Milky White That World People Want to Eat -Santoka Head Office in Asahikawa-

Santoka head office (山頭火本店) is a popular ramen restaurant in Asahikawa city. Ab-out, inc. (株式会社アブアウト) runs it and it was founded in 1988. Any place other than Japan, there are some branch offices in United States, Canada, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Philippines, Thailand, too. There is a building of head office near Asahikawa station. I visited here around 17:00 on national holiday.

The ramen restraunt had an atmosphere such as just ramen restraunt. There was no customer at the building. I sat a table and read a menu. The recommendation of this ramen restaurant was salt ramen (塩ラーメン). I ordered the salt ramen. The price was JPY 820.

Approximately 5 minutes later, the salt ramen was served. Meanwhile, 5 groups of visitors came to the building in succession. I thought that the Santoka head office was really popular ramen restaurant. The pork broth soup was light taste, but it had Umami and was tasty. Noodles were made by Kato ramen. The salt ramen was topped with only a small Japanese ume plant and that color was outstanding at the milky white soup. It was beautiful color combination. I enjoyed the real taste of the head office's ramen that world people want to eat.

The salt ramen of Santoka is found on Amazon.
