01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
Regulars return to the half fried rice set with the rich salt ramen, praising how well the curly noodles go with its full-bodied broth. Ramen Ichimonya’s rich salt ramen starts with salt ramen made from chicken-bone paitan broth, then adds back fat and aromatic vegetables. It’s a heartier option when you want depth rather than a cleaner, lighter salt flavour. Some diners also say the half portion of fried rice is generous enough to make the meal satisfying alongside a bowl of ramen.
The salt ramen combines chicken-bone paitan broth with a matured seasoning blend made from 4 types of natural rock salt. The menu describes a broth that looks light but has a pronounced flavour, making it an option for those who prefer salt-seasoned ramen. The soy sauce ramen also uses chicken-bone paitan broth, paired with a matured seasoning blend of 4 types of naturally brewed soy sauce aged in wooden barrels. If you’re deciding between the two, comparing their distinct flavours is part of the appeal.
The half fried rice set pairs salt or soy sauce ramen with a half portion of fried rice, an easy choice when you want a substantial lunch. There’s also a set with kimchi fried rice, which adds a different note to the rice portion. One diner who ordered ramen with fried rice said the fried rice made a particular impression.
For an extra dish, consider the light house-made gyoza or fried chicken, available in portions of 3 or 6 pieces. Rice options include a chashu pork rice bowl and onigiri, so you can choose between a ramen-and-fried-rice set or a bowl with a side of your choice. The restaurant is described as having a quiet atmosphere suited to dining alone, and is open for both lunch and dinner.
