Menya Chika

It had been a while since I had been in the greater Tenma area. My friend and I met up to go walking around on a Sunday night. We decided to make our destination the delicious-looking but far out Menya Chika. Their main dish is a shio tsukemen, which we both, perhaps foolishly, ordered in large size.

久しぶりに天満の辺りに行きました。友達と一緒に日曜日の夜に散歩しました。遠いけどおいしそうな「麺屋近」に行こうかなと思っていました。名物は塩つけ麺なので、無料大盛りを頼みました。

The Bowl
The broth was light and salty, with pieces of fried garlic floating in it. And also salt. A lot of salt. There were a few slices of decent chashu, and the egg and long noodles were pretty good, but what stood out most was the saltiness of the whole thing. Even the wari-soup required a chaser of water.

スープがあっさりで塩辛かった。ニンニクも入ってました。でも、けっこう塩辛かったです。チャーシューは普通においしかったし、長い麺も卵もおいしかったです。でも、割りスープを飲んでも「塩辛いな」と思ってしもた。

Would I Go Again?
Too salty.

ちょっと塩っぱすぎたので...

Should You Go?
Nah, there are other good shops in the area though.

天満の近くに別のおいしい店が多いです。
