Eguchi

One of the most famous tsukemen shops in Osaka just happened to open a shop right by where I work! It replaced a mediocre-at-best curry udon shop, so this was a win-win. Many moons ago I visited the Esaka flagship shop of Eguchi, so I knew what I was in for, and I didn't feel bad for ordering the spicy tsukemen over the standard one.

大阪のかなり有名なつけ麺専門店「えぐち」が職場の近くで二号店を開きました!微妙なカレーうどん屋さんの後にできたので、よろしいことだろう。昔に、江坂にある本店に行ったので、どんなものかすでにわかっていました。それで、定番のつけ麺じゃなくて、辛いほうの赤つけそばにしました。

The Bowl
Just like the flagship, this was a thin and easy to drink seafood soup tsukemen. The broth was quite red, but the spiciness was light and tingly overall. I appreciate Eguchi's choice of shiny, slurpable noodles that are thick, but not too much for their broth. The menma and chashu were both decent enough, but the draw of Eguchi remains the refreshing never-gets-old soup.

やっぱり本店と似ていて、あっさり飲みやすい系のつけ麺でいた。スープは真っ赤ですけど、ピリ辛なので、激辛まで耐えない方も気にしなくてもいいです。麺はスープとバッチリで、中太って、すっとすすれました。メンマもチャーシューも普通に美味しかったですけど、えぐちの特徴が飽きない透き通ったスープですね。

Would I Go Again?
I would, and have.

もう何回か行ったことがあります。

Should You Go?
Compared to most of the heavy tsukemen you find in Osaka, Eguchi is a welcome change of pace. Anyone looking for an easy to drink tsukemen should come here.

大阪のつけ麺がほぼ重いですから、軽い方を食べてみたい人にオススメです。
