Chibo no Tantanmen

It was the short time in Japan between the chilly winter and humid summer - May. I had one last day, so I decided to walk by Utusubo Park. Around there was a tantanmen shop I had wanted to try for a while. There were tons of spicy options, but since it was my first time I went with the staff-recommended white sesame tantanmen.

５月にはちょっと春っぽい天気があるので、外を歩きたくなります。靭公園に行って、その辺りに行きたかった担々麺屋さんがありました。辛いメニューがいっぱいありましたけど、初めてなので、お勧めしてもらった白胡麻タンタン麺にしました。

The Bowl
Wow, they weren't kidding about the white sesame in this bowl. There was a ton of it and white pepper hovering at the top. It was pretty spicy but not overwhelming. The noodles were curly and chewy, and the sprouts and ground pork went with the sesame flavor well.

やっぱり白胡麻がいっぱい乗っていました。白胡椒もけっこうあって、辛くてうまかったです。麺がもちもちの縮れ麺でした。もやしも豚肉もゴマの味に合いました。

Would I Go Again?
It was a solid if standard bowl of tantanmen, but I want to try the other items on the menu.

普通でおいしいタンタン麺でしたが、他のメニューを食べてみたいです。

Should You Go?
For those in Osaka craving some spice, this is a good place.

辛いものが好きな人、行ってください。
