Menya Hoi

I just got back from my trip abroad, and unusual to most trips, I landed at Itami Airport. This normally doesn't change much; it's about the same amount of time for me to get home as it would be from Kansai Airport. But Itami happens to be near Hotarugaike Station, home of several good ramen shops, including Kansai miso king Mitsukabozu. I walked with my luggage and when I arrived at the door this is what I saw:

出張から帰ってきました。普通と違って、関空じゃなくて伊丹空港に着きました。帰る時間があまり変わりませんけど、蛍池駅の近くにあるのでいろいろなラーメン屋さんがその近くにあります特にうわさの味噌専門店みつか坊主に気になりました。荷物を持って行って、ドアに張ってあったのが:



There was a fire! They're closed for a while, and at time of writing they are still closed. Dejected and disappointed, I wasn't going home with an empty stomach. I headed to nearby also-great Menya Hoi, where I had been just a couple weeks before. Earlier I ordered the tori paitan, so this time I decided to go with the clear fish tori seitan.

火事やった!しばらく閉まっているらしくて、今書くときにも閉まっています。すっごいがっかりしましたけど、何か食べたかったです。近所のおすすめの麺屋ほぃに最近行きましたけど、もう一回行ってみました。前回鶏白湯を食べたので今回魚清湯にしました。

The Bowl
This was a different beast from what I ordered last time. The broth was a simple oily soup, with simple fish flavors, and chock full of globs of fish oil. The noodles were thin and slippery, similar to the kind I would normally see in a shio bowl. The toppings were the same all-star lineup that were offered last time: seasoned duck, and a ginger-laden pork meatball.

前回のラーメンと違うものです。スープがさっぱりして魚油がいっぱい入っていました。麺が細くてちょっと滑りやすかったです。塩らーめんの麺に似ていたかなと思いました。トッピングが前と一緒の最高のかも一枚と生姜だらけの豚の団子でした。

Would I Go Again?
Yes, but I would go for the paitan again next time.

また行きたいですけど、今度また白湯にします。

Should You Go?
Yes

はい。
