Ippo

Every once in a while some friends of mine insist they have found the best ramen shop. Often I recognize the shop they're talking about, but when I haven't, I am excited to discover a new place. This time a couple of friends took me to Ippo, a tonkotsu ramen shop in Minamimorimachi.

たまに「このラーメン屋さんが大阪の一番やで!」と友達に言われています。行ったことがある店が多いですけど、もし聞いたことがない店のお勧めが来たら、行ってみたくなります。今回南森町の辺にある「一歩」豚骨専門店に連れてもらいました。

The Bowl
And what I received was indeed a solid bowl of tonkotsu. It had a little bit of that tonkotsu stink, and was not lacking in salt, but in the end it wasn't that heavy. The noodles were thin and hard, representing classic Hakata style. The chashu slices were thick and tender, with a strange almost sake-like aftertaste. This was a good bowl of tonkotsu, and I can understand why my friends love it, but unfortunately doesn't make it into my top bowls of Osaka.

定番的で美味しい豚骨のラーメンが提供されました。豚骨的にちょっと臭くて、塩辛かったですけど、意外と重くなかったです。麺は博多っぽくて細固麺でした。チャーシューは厚くてとろけて、何か変な日本酒っぽい後味がしました。うまくて、友達がなんで好きかわかってきました。

Would I Go Again?
Unfortunately, it has closed so even if I wanted to I can't

残念ながら、潰れました。

Should You Go?
You can't, because it's closed.

潰れたので、行けません。
