Local People Love Soy Sauce Ramen -Asahikawa Daikichi Ramen-

Asahikawa Daikichi Ramen (旭川大吉ラーメン) is a ramen restaurant in Hokumon-cho, Asahikawa city and was founded in 1983. I heard from Mrs. Gishi that local people love the ramen restaurant, and I visited here around 17:00 on weekdays. The ramen restraunt had an atmosphere such as just ramen restraunt. There are some tables and family customers seem to enjoy.

After asking a waitress about ramen restaurant's recommendation, she replied "Soy sauce ramen (正油ラーメン)". The price is JPY 680. There are rare ramen including salt malted rice ramen (塩麹ラーメン), pumpkin ramen (かぼちゃラーメン), lemon ramen (レモンラーメン) as well as soy sauce ramen. The waitress said that the salt malted rice ramen was in particular recommended in those. About 10 minutes later, the soy sauce ramen was served. Ingredients were roasted pork fillet, bamboo shoots and green onions.

Brown soup reminded me of typical Asahikawa ramen. But the feature was that salt of the soup was not thicker than looks. It did not seem to add salt to soup. They stewed pork bones, chicken body, onions and kombu for 10 hours, and the soup were cooked. Surely it was not unexpectedly salty taste. The taste of the lard was good old ramen of North Hokkaido. It is Asahikawa ramen loved by local people.
