Tenkin

Ramenya Tenkin (らーめんや天金) is a long-established ramen restraunt run by Tenkin Foods corp. in Asahikawa city. Mr. Norimitsu Nobuta (信田憲満) established it in 1952. Ms. Nanako Fujita (藤田奈々子) is a company president at present. The Tenkin is one of the most famous ramen restraunts in the Asahikawa. Their family line also runs Izakaya and a Japanese restraunt in the Asahikawa. I guess that do not they have the head office, but has 2 branch restraunts, 4jo Branch (4条店) and Asahikawa Ramen village Branch (あさひかわラーメン村店).

My visited place is the 4jo Branch near Akita Bank Asahikawa Branch (秋田銀行旭川支店). The relaviely new building is not so samll, and all seats are table seats, so I guess that even family customers enjoy meals. A lots of autographed cards are closely stuck on a wall, so I think that the Mizuno is also popular with celebrities.

ASAHIKAWA

Asahikawa (旭川) that about 340,000 people live is the 2nd largest commercial city in Hokkaido, and has flourished as the center of the North Hokkaido area. Woodworks have been prosperous since the old days, and furniture is famous. Because water is clear, a liquor such as sake of Otokoyama (男山) and Godo Shusei (合同酒精) are famous, too. Popular tourist attractions such as Asahiyama Zoo (旭山動物園) and Biei (美瑛) are around the Asahikawa, so a lot of tourists use tourist bases in the North Hokkaido. As for a climate, the Asahikawa is located in Kamikawa Basin, the largest basin in the Hokkaido, so it is hot that temperature rises to 30 degrees C in a summer, and it is cold that temperature falls to -25 degrees C in a winter, and it snow very hard, too. So a winter festival using the snow is famous. Article is here

Soy Sauce Broth Ramen

I visited the head office around 13:30 on a weekday. The ramen restraunt was almost full. It was popular after all. Fortunately, it was the timing that other cusotmers went home, so I could sit a table seat without waitnig. I read a menu, and ordered Soy Sauce Broth Ramen (正味ラーメン), the standard Asahikawa ramen. The price was JPY 700.

About 10 minutes later, the Soy Sauce Broth Ramen was served. Roasted pork fillets, bamboo shoots and green onions were on noodles. The ingredients were simple. Brightly shining soup used lard oil a little too much to prevent the soup from cooling down, and looked typical soup of the Asahikawa Ramen. The soup mixed pork bone broth with chicken broth was rich salty, and was very nice!

The noodles produced by Fujiwara Noodle Factory (藤原製麺), a famous noodle brand, hold the soup very much. It was tasty! I could not help eating the noodles. Thanks for the tasty meal!
