Yoichi Maehama Shrimp Ramen Was Evaluated by MICHELIN GUIDE -Jogura in Yoichi-

Jogura (じょぐら) is a popular ramen restraunt in Yoichi town located in the root of Shakotan Peninsula and was founded in about 2000. It was placed in the MICHELIN GUIDE Hokkaido 2012 Special Edition. It takes about 5 minutes from Yoichi station to here. Jogura means a warehouse in Hokkaido dialect. But I have never known it, so I guess that it is Hamakotoba (浜言葉 * dialect that fishing village speak). Yoichi Maehama Shrimp Ramen (余市前浜えびラーメン) that is served only from March to October is most popular ramen. An owner is a former shrimp fishermen, and he serve ramen topped with grilled sweet shrimps. The price was JPY 880.

I visited here around 13:30 on weekdays. A waitress said "Please buy a meal ticket", and I bought the meal ticket of the Yoichi Maehama Shrimp Ramen near an entance. In that case, she asked me "We serve a bowl of free rice, do you want?", and I wanted it. There are some counter seats and a table at a building, so maybe family customers and large number of customers do not enjoy. I sat at the counter seat. There were 3 groups of customers at the building. About 8 minutes later, the Yoichi Maehama Shrimp Ramen was served.

First of all, shiny red soup caught my eyes. The Color looks spicy by all appearances. I ate a sip of soup at once. Then it was not unexpectedly spicy at all. Pork broth was mixed with miso, red pepper, chili oil and shrimp broth, so it had light taste and rich taste (こっさり味) and was not too salty taste that I have never eaten. It was tasty!

Noodles were thick type. Ingredients were grilled sweet shrimp and green onions. The customers can eat the grilled sweet shrimp without skinning the sweet shrimp. A crispy texture was good. The soup went well with rice, and it was very good, too.
