Shinkabakushin

While looking online for ramen shops along the Yotsubashi line in Osaka, there was one shop I spotted a few times. There wasn't much information on it, but I saw its name enough times that I decided I'd stop there on a walk home some time. Shinkabakushin is a big shop on the second floor. They had a large menu, so as always I asked what they recommended, and was told to get the normal tonkotsu ramen.

インターネットで四つ橋線沿いのラーメン屋さんを探して、何回か見かけた店の名前が出ました。情報が少なかったですけど、いつか行ってみたいと思っていました。進化驀進って言う店が広くて二階の店です。いろいろなメニューがあって、おすすめの豚骨ラーメンにしました。

The Bowl
Well, it lived up to the name, but was nothing special. It was a bowl of garlicky, tonkotsu ramen, with a slick layer of oil on the top. The noodles were chewy, and the chashu was thick, but neither of them made the bowl step past its mediocre level.

特徴がそんなになくて、普通の豚骨でした。ニンニクが入って、脂もけっこう多めでした。麺もチャーシューも悪くなかったですけど、結局普通の店の豚骨ラーメンの味がしました。

Would I Go Again?
Nah, it wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

まずくはなかったですけど、もっとおいしい店があります。

Should You Go?
Nah.

行かなくていいと思います。
