TSURUMEN

Today I visited TSURUMEN, a shop not far from Osaka Castle Park, and former home of Ramen Cliff. I went with their standard if unique Dotesoba, a bowl of mazesoba with the white miso flavors of doteyaki, a dish of stewed beef tendon and jelly konnyaku.

今回TSURUMENという大阪城公園の近くにある店に行ってきました。らぁ麺 Cliffのあとでできました。白みそのどてやき＋まぜそばのコンビのどてそばにしました。

The Bowl
For better or for worse, they got what they were aiming for: this was a bowl of noodles that captured the sweet and tenderness of doteyaki. The konnyaku added unique chew to the bowl, and the beef tendon bits were tender and juicy as hoped for. The flat noodles, on the other hand, reminded me of noodle dishes I had in Hong Kong. An interesting dish, if one that got a bit tiresome.

可もなく不可もなし、どてやきらしい混ぜそばでした。こんにゃくで食感が普通と違って、牛筋の甘味が効いていて、柔らかかったです。一方、平打ち麺は香港でよく見たワンタンメンの麺みたいでした。全体的に美味しかったですけど、ちょっと重かったです。

Would I Go Again?
It was pretty good; I might if I'm in the area.

美味しかったので近くにいたらまた行くかもしれません。

Should You Go?
Those who are looking for the weird, check this one out.

邪道が好きな方にぜひ。
