Menya Takei

Famous Kyoto tsukemen shop Takei opened a shop in Hankyu Umeda station, and I finally got a chance to go there. The line was long as always, but I was able to to get in and try their tsukemen.

京都の名店「たけ井」が阪急梅田駅内で店ができて、やっと行けました。列はいつも通り長かったですけど、入れてつけ麺を頼みました。

The Bowl
At first glance this was your standard gyokai tonkotsu tsukemen, but more than its competitors the broth was unmovingly thick, and both more meaty and less sweet. I'm always a fan of these kotteri bowls, but I'm glad the yuzu peel and negi were there to lighten up the soup as I moved forward. The thick-as-rope, square noodles and fatty chashu slice were fine vessels for the broth.

一見で普通の魚介とんこつつけ麺なんですけど、似ているつけ麺よりドロ～っとしたスープが旨味が効いて、甘味が控えめでした。こんなこってりのがお気に入りなんですけど、食べながら柚子の皮とねぎをちょっとずつ混ぜたらバランスが取れました。極太四角い麺と油っぽいチャーシューはスープの相性が抜群でした。

Would I Go Again?
