Tai Dashi Ramen Kotone

Some areas in Osaka just have more ramen shops than others. This time I made my first trip to Nishi Kujo by bike to go to Tai Dashi Ramen Kotone. Kotone specializes in ramen made from sea bream. They offered shio, shoyu, and soupless abura soba, and I went with the shio.

ラーメン屋さんがない場所にあまり行きません。今回初めていちゃりで西九条へ行ってみました。鯛ラーメン専門店「鯛出汁らーめん琴ね」に行きました。塩、しょうゆ、汁なし出汁そばがあって、塩にしようと思いました。

The Bowl
The shio broth was light and cloudy. It contained a delicate amount of sea bream, not overpowering like in a lot of shrimp ramen. The semi-clear flat noodles had just a bit of bounce, and were very slightly curly. The rare chashu, too, was just a bit chewy, and the parts that were seasoned brought out the flavor of the pork. Mixing in the sesame and green onions gave the bowl's flavors a refreshing makeover midway through the meal.

塩スープはあっさりで濁っていました。ほんのり鯛の味がして、ドエビらーめんと違いました。半透明な麺は平打ちで、もちもちとしていました。チャーシューはちょびっとかたくて、胡椒の下味がおいしかったです。ゴマとねぎを混ぜたら、味が変わってうまかったです。

Would I Go Again?
Maybe, if I'm in the area again.

またその辺にいればまた行くかもしれません。
