I heard it had just been opened, is that correct?
September 12
The main place is the car shop.
The building is also about 30 years old by now.
It's related to cars and architecture.
When you prepare the soup you prepped yesterday, mix it like this:
It depends entirely on how much prep work you've done the previous day.
The time of arrival will change.
If you didn't come yesterday, you won't come at 3 o'clock or so.
I haven't slept today.
Take it easy for about an hour.
I got back around 2:30, since it was yesterday.
I haven't taken a break for a long time.
I haven't slept for only about two hours each day until yesterday.
Can you really function on just two hours of sleep?
There's nothing else to do but go for it.
No one else puts in the morning shift except me.
Open 6 a.m.
Let's do it together for a bit.
I'll keep watching for a while longer.
Are there things like apples in it?
Yeah
It's not usually allowed for us, isn't it?
It tastes better when you add apples.
As for me,
From afar
I was in Chiba because of this ball.
It was the route coming from this side.
There are quite a few people who think they might as well drop by.
A while ago, I met someone from Shizuoka.
About six people came.
During the long holiday
There are also people like that.
Since it's morning, there are more weekday work-related customers.
My client at work is a bar.
Around 7 o'clock or so
As it gets close to 8 o'clock
Don't you all have school things going on, don't you?
When it comes to such a situation
Around 9:30 a.m. the first time
It's a bit messy.
There might also be times when one becomes idle.
I can't read it at all.
I didn't advertise it.
Are there any days off on weekends, holidays, or something like that?
It was a bit sagging on Saturday.
There are days when it drags on.
That's why the morning dripped down.
Everyone's off, so I ended up falling asleep.
There's no one to do the work, aren't there? Conversely,
Since it's a day off
You know, people from the school shop are on break, so...
The morning hour of 1 a.m. never comes
On the contrary
There is a countdown display.
Another 10 cups or so
Even when you can or cannot get 20 cups
I am here.
Usually, up until now
When it's not nighttime
It'll be over by 1:30, so hurry up
With this single barrel full
It'll probably be over in about an hour and a half.
It'll basically run out around 2:30 or so.
At that point, I already said it was over.
Something like, "Why don't you come over tonight?"
Won't you keep going?
There are even regular customers, you know.
and barrel-shaped
I have this cylindrical one and another one as well.
The little half of it
Just prepare it a little in advance.
The one I prepared yesterday
It's also inside here.
That's why it's impossible without this
I can't possibly continue through noon anymore.
From around 8:30 to around 9:30
In the time that becomes free
Leave the man behind
Here, raw and untouched
Some people also remove the bloodline.
That kind of thing is clearly too slow.
After one go of gyoil
You're removing the bloodline, aren't you?
So I washed it with a scrubbing brush.
Then process it over here.
Something like leaving it scattered around and set aside
Otherwise, we won't make it in time.
So the flavor is quite aggressive in its sales approach.
When you fall behind
Does it change a bit sometimes?
Change
The one I'm wearing today is
They keep coming, one after another.
Taste of
In this state, as it is
I need to put in a little more.
It'll all evaporate completely.
It changes even if it's just a little.
Above all, that one.
The gas bill is already down to just 30 minutes a month or so.
25, around 30
The gas bill is definitely not going to shrink.
Slimming the waist, but weak gas
The dimensions being just one unit after all
That's where the greatest difficulty comes in, isn't it?
Sit down.
I can handle doing 1, 2, 3, 4, and so on.
Even my rest time is spent with this child.
This big guy here
If I place one more
It might still be completely different.
Keep coming over.
I will make it for you.
and so on, commenting
Negira ramen and ramen are
Negi chashu, etc.
Such as this
Why is it always the same person everyone relies on?
Staff and others
At the customer's request
Because PKG is something everyone wants
I increased the number of PKGs.
The top choice is negiramen.
After all, the number one
Negi chashu
Scallion chashu and
Nikkei char-siu, maybe
Which one?
We're evenly matched here.
And miso
Grams are roughly
150, 220, 300 or so
The people coming in the morning are mostly Chinese.
Regular size
Usually double
Many people eat large portions.
Even a large serving!
It's 150 grams, you know.
About average
Around 120, I'd say.
130 or so
But I'm doing it with 150 grams.
Regular size
A big serving like 300 grams
Yes, sorry
A bowl of chashu with medium portion
Rice as is
Stare fixedly
Yes
Hello, this way please.
Yes, sorry
Thank you very much.
Here it is.
Thank you very much.
Choco choco
No, this is the second time here, isn't it?
Are you from around here?
Local, you know, local
Today is a day off, you know.
The closest and yet the farthest
It was a store that opened early.
I like ramen shops themselves, so
That's how it feels coming here.
When I came for the first time
All ordinary
and eat after that
Maybe a stronger concentration would be better in this case?
When I first saw the ratings or reviews,
It was a bit low, though.
I don't think it's anywhere near that bad at all.
How about the atmosphere inside the store?
That's perfectly fine.
Our number one customer here
Mr. Joren
Did you eat dinner here?
It arrived yesterday.
I'm sorry, I've been sorry all along.
Sorry
Yes, sorry
Yes
Please do not leave anything to chance.
Yes, sorry in advance
I'll serve the green onions in no time.
Sorry, I'll send it right away.
I've come here three times already.
You've come three times already?
I've come three times already.
Come back three times
Whenever I pass by this store on my commute,
I can't help but stop by.
Come every day to wherever I can go.
When I thought about coming over
There's no more soup left.
It's closing in.
I wanted to come, but I'll skip this time.
Here it comes, huh?
Sorry
I used to go to Kaminari's place, but...
Thank you very much.
Here it comes
Ending up coming here
I'm addicted.
It's already serious.
Around here
I'm here because I've been feeling unwell.
About twice a week?
Yes, it will come three times, right?
What do you do for work?
Manufacturing
Attendance is already around 6 o'clock now, isn't it?
Half past six or so
You're right, around 6:30 or so.
It'll probably end up being breakfast, after all.
How old is your older brother?
I will be 63.
Ramen at Oyama's place from morning?
I've always liked ramen
I guess I just can't give it up, can I?
How is the store manager's demeanor?
Yes, he's a cheerful person.
Good at talking
I wouldn't wake up this early for just anyone
Ramen is a type of noodle soup that originated in China but has become a staple of Japanese cuisine. It typically consists of a flavorful broth, wheat noodles, and various toppings such as sliced pork (chashu), nori (seaweed), green onions, and a soft-boiled egg. The broth can be made in several styles, including shoyu (soy sauce), shio (salt), miso, and tonkotsu (pork bone). Ramen is enjoyed both as a quick meal and a comfort food, and it has a wide variety of regional variations across Japan, each with its own unique characteristics in terms of broth, noodle texture, and toppings.
I doubt you'd do it for me.
I think
A little customization, please
If you have any recommendations, I'll ask you at the end.
You're right, it's definitely that way.
Because I like onions
Anyway, the green onions from the ramen shop
I guess the thing is, eating the green onions wrapped around the noodles.
That sounds like a great recommendation.
It's the best place.
It was announced the day before yesterday.
Cherry Blossom Bloom in Tokyo
Betraying the man's uniform
In connection with driving customer acquisition
Here it is.
It hasn't been six months yet.
If you have any recommended dishes,
I would like to ask you something.
Scallion chashu as well.
Can it be eaten by oneself or even used by oneself?
Do it.
Up to once a week
I like my noodles on the firm side.
Also, since there's egg noodle available, it might be good to try the egg noodles, depending on your preference.
I've recently gotten tired of ramen, so I've been eating tsukemen lately.
Who is Mr. Kato like?
Mr. Kato is a bit of a boyish person.
They immediately get excited.
Thank you very much.
Have you ever received a meal voucher before?
Yes.
A ramen shop, huh?
It's a curry restaurant.
