Tasty Spicy Miso Ramen with Beautiful Colors -Ichimonji Head Office in Hakodate-

Ichimonji Head Office (一文字本店) is a popular ramen restraunt in Yunokawa, Hakodate city. There is a building near Hakodate tropical zone botanical garden (函館熱帯植物園), and visitors can eat ramen while looking at the sea. I visited here around 13:00 on National holiday. 1 group of preceding visitor lined up at an entrance, but I was able to enter the ramen restraunt soon. The ramen restraunt was almost full and there were the visitors who held a guidebook in their hands at many seats, they saw the guidebook and visited here. The ramen restraunt had an atomosphere such as a casual dining. There are some tables, so family customers seem to enjoy. But lines will be often expected at lunchtime.

I sat at a counter seat and asked a waitress about ramen restraunt's recommendation. She replied "salt ramen (塩ラーメン)". But regular customers seemed to often order spicy hot miso ramen (辛味噌ラーメン) or soy sauce ramen with backfat type (チャッチャ系正油らーめん). Therefore I ordered the spicy hot miso ramen. The price was JPY 810.

Approximately 10 minutes later, the spicy hot miso ramen was served. The ramen was a vivid color arrangement, and white green onions were dished up on the center around red soup, and cutting red peppers sprinkled on the top of the green onions accentuated. It looked beautiful. Its taste was just Szechuan style sesame hot noodles. The flavor of the sesame went well with spicy hot soup using soup broth stewed with kombu produced in Minamikayabe, chicken native to Akita Prefecture and pork bones for 10 hours. It was tasty! I saw that this ramen restraunt became popular.

The spicy hot miso ramen of Ichimonji is found on Amazon.
