Jikaseimen Itou - Semboku

The noodles were crispy, the soup with a strong scent of dried sardines, and the only ingredients were green onions, which was a very simple ramen! It was very delicious! The shop owner also talked to me kindly, and it was a cozy ramen shop (^^)

A shop where a unique shop owner offers unique ramen. In terms of image, Hakata Ramen's Balikata noodles are very few thick soups. People who like it seem to like it.

A large serving of buttons, the usual Patsun noodles. I wonder if there is not enough juice in a large serving. It ’s still delicious. Back menu: It seems that you can add more soup by adding 300 yen with new information. Immediately, I gave my father 300 yen with a meal ticket and ordered an extra soup. I think this is the first photo of the soup above the noodles at this restaurant. It was a normal serving with plenty of soup.

There are different tastes for non-chemical, varicata, and small soup, but the originator of the niboshi ramen that will lead to the Prince's Michelin and Ginza stores over 20 years is the real thing. The first place I visited when I entered Akita from Iwate on a Tohoku gourmet trip was "Homemade Noodle Ito". This shop is said to be the "originator of niboshi ramen", and there is also a shop with the same name in Ginza. Many people don't understand the relationship, so to summarize, the owner opened a store in Kakunodate, Semboku City, Akita Prefecture 32 years ago. In 2004, his younger brother opened in Toshima, Kita-ku, Tokyo (the nearest station is Oji or Oji Kamiya). The store name is "Chinese soba shop Ito". In 2009, 2011, and 2014, my younger brother's son opened "Homemade Noodles Ito" in Akabane, Asakusa, and Ginza, respectively. Of these, my younger brother, "Chuka Soba-ya Ito," became popular at once because it was selected as Michelin's Bib Gourmand. That younger brother trained at "Homemade Noodles Ito" in Semboku City. Visit is at 13:00 on weekdays. The store has a dark brown exterior with a sign of "Homemade Noodles Ito" at the entrance, but since the letters "Homemade Noodles" are small and the pampas grass is growing, the nameplate "Ito" is seen from a distance. Looks like. When I went inside, there was one customer and I was talking to the shop owner at the counter, but I just went back to the wrong place. Leave a comment that "it was delicious normally." I felt that I shouldn't say anything strange. It's not a normal comment to say "normally delicious" rather than "delicious". When I looked at the ticket vending machine without worrying about it, I was surprised at the small number of buttons. There are two types of menu, "Sina soba" and "Meat soba", and there are a total of 6 buttons, medium, medium and large. We limit the types and save the trouble to the utmost. The order is "meat soba". When you give the meal ticket, the owner goes into the back and starts cooking. The kitchen is behind the frosted glass sliding door, but when I was making ramen, I closed the sliding door tightly and cooked. Technology that does not go out of the gate? ?? ?? The degree of privacy protection that you think ... The ramen served in about 5 minutes is a small soup that seems to have completely sucked up the soup after ordering the ramen and leaving it for 30 minutes. The soup is invisible when viewed from a 45 ° licking angle. Since it is a style without a lotus, the usual way to eat ramen is from the soup, but when you first try a bite, the noodles are quite firm. It is the hardness 1 minute after adding hot water to the cup noodles. It is a cup that falls into a very unique category. The lower part is soaked in soup, so the noodles will become softer in the second half, but in the first half we will fight with this Balikata noodles. The ingredients are very simple with green onions and meat. The soup is mainly Niboshi chicken soup stock. I will eat green onions and char siu together with Balikata noodles. A natural ramen that does not use chemical seasonings. When the owner, who seems to be in his 70s and sat at the counter after eating, said, "The noodles are hard," he said, "I don't think it's hard." This return was quite surprising. I thought that as I got older, I tended to dislike hard things. I thought it was hardened to suit the tastes of the customers. After repeating various trials and errors for 32 years, it was 10 years ago that I finally arrived, and it seems that the soup, noodles, quantity, ingredients, etc. have been completed. In fact, the umami of the soup, which does not make you feel unsatisfactory even if it is in a neutral state, brings out the power of the local chicken and dried sardines. On the other hand, I personally like noodles that are not firm, and Gohan also likes soft noodles rather than hard noodles, so that one point did not suit my taste. To be honest, I think you will like it. When I heard the words "It was delicious normally" that the previous customer said on his way home, I felt a slight sense of discomfort. As a whole, the store is not fashionable, but it has a tasteful storefront. Starting from this rural village in the mountains of Akita, the younger brother who received the baton has developed into a shop that makes ramen approved by Michelin, and it makes us feel the history of his son opening a shop in Ginza. Ramen is completed at this shop in Kakunodate, Semboku City, Akita Prefecture, before and after the younger brother's son opens three shops in sequence. About 20 years. Recently, there is a lot of information, and the number of popular stores and Michelin-starred stores is increasing in a shorter period of time than many years of training. However, I think the ramen that I have arrived at over the last 20 years is genuine. It's quite a countryside, so it's not easy to visit, but I think it's a shop you'll want to visit once in a lifetime. The owner is old, so as soon as possible (laughs).

On weekdays, I went to Kakunodate's famous ramen Ito. The number of customers is ok. It wasn't crowded. In Akabane and Ginza, my younger brother seems to run a ramen shop, which is also a very famous shop. The noodles are so hard that I can feel that they are chewy or raw, and I remember the level of chewing and the coldness of Ugo. Soup is much less than other stores. Homemade noodles, non-natural. It was a unique shop.
