Yamanakaseimenjo — Restaurant in Osaka

Came here for lunch on a weekday after being recommended by a colleague. There are only three options for the soup, soy sauce based, Paitan (chicken broth with pork) based ramen and a soy sauce paitan ramen.

I tried the paitan ramen which was 850 yen but you can get the soy marinated egg version which is 950 yen. Added some extra char siu pork instead and it was so worth it! The broth is rich and pairs well with the spring onions and char siu pork. Didn’t try the side menus but would consider if I wasn’t too full!

Next, the chicken and pork white soup ramen. I chose thin and firm noodles. The soup is a little thick and similar to the soup at Tenkaippin, but the aftertaste is a little lighter and more refined (this is my personal opinion). It was a taste that I would like to...

Food was alright. Ramen better than anywhere in the US is a given. But the service was seriously awful. Chef was mean, he told me to “Bring the bowl up when empty” but none of the other Japanese guests did and left it at their spot, like every other ramen place in Japan. Also didn’t say the trademark “Thank you for eating here”~ saying every other Japanese restaurant does, was silent as he stared at me leave, and glared the whole time as I stood up and walked out the store and glared through the window, I stared the whole time back. Saw some other reviews possibly citing racism, honestly I’m inclined to believe them based on the...
