Ramen Zikon

Menya Jikon is a shop that I had wanted to visit for a long time before I actually went out to Daito city to check it out. Shortly afterwards, though, they opened up a branch right in Yotsubashi. Of course I had to stop by. Different from the basic shoyu and shio offered at the original shop, Zikon's main dish is a clam shio.

麺屋而今に行く前にはずっと行きたかったです。その後、四ツ橋で新しい支店ができました。行かなあかんかった。麺屋而今のスタンダード醤油と塩と違って、Zikonの名物は特性天然塩あさりそばでした。

The Bowl
This was shio, for sure, but not the kind of clear simple broth you'd often see. It was cloudy and buttery, with the clam flavors seeping in all parts. Eating it with the red onions that were served made it taste almost like clam chowder. The noodles were medium and firm, about as hard as Hakata thin noodles usually come. The egg was a highlight, too, as it was creamy and simple, ready to be complemented by the flavorful soup.

完全に塩でしたけど、ザ・シオと違って、濁って濃いめの味しました。あさりの味がして、赤玉ねぎと食べて、アメリカのクラムチャウダーって感じがしました。中部と麺派はかた麺みたいに固めでした。玉子はさっぱりとして、スープと食べたらうまかったです。

Would I Go Again?
Yes.

はい。

Should You Go?
Yes.
