三角山五衛門ラーメン Goemon-ramen — Restaurant in Sapporo

Me and my friend went here on our first and last day of our trip to Sapporo :) we both got the鶏塩チャーシューメン (chicken salt and pork slices ramen, ¥1150) and it was 10/10 first time we forgot to take pictures because we were hungry 😂 but we had both gotten the original. The next time we went, I got it without spring onions (which weren’t too overpowering but I just rather not have them) and the owners were more than happy to oblige :) They’ve also got an English menu if you need one! They have limited seating but that’s the norm of “hole-in-the-wall” places. The ramen is amazing :) The lady also recommended next time to try the しょうゆラーメン and I saw locals having it both times I went and they looked very happy :D Will definitely visit again next time fate brings me...

I was recommended by local Sapporo. And turns out the ramen is really delicious. The homemade noodle in the ramen is really good. I think this is a “traditional ramen” that you need experience as a tourist. The chicken soup base is really light but tasty. If you didn’t eat pork, you can ask “no chasiu”. They only have 4 options for ramen, and 4 options for rice with topping. And you need to try their “jakomeshi” its a rice with anchovy, it’s really good. In my trip to sapporo, i came to this place twice because the ramen is really good in freezing weather. The price is really reasonable too.

They provide english menu, just ask for english...

Goemon is another small ramen restaurant, but this one was an unexpected highlight. I was a bit skeptical of the old, hole-in-the-wall facade, but encouraged by the smell of boiling broth outside the shop and other positive reviews, we stopped in and ordered their recommended Chicken Salt Chashu Ramen for 1050¥.

And I was thoroughly impressed! The broth was medium-light but had a ton of lovely chicken flavor, perhaps akin to chicken soup without the creaminess and excessive saltiness. The chashu was decent and it was quite a nice portion overall. I highly recommend this place if...
