Al Paci Ramen

Well before I moved to Osaka I had heard a rumor about a strange ramen shop. This shop was supposed to be an Al Pacino themed shop. I know, it makes no sense, but I found it. Following my heart and going with the spicy choice, I ordered the aka Paci ramen at Aru Paci Ramen.

大阪に引越しする前から変なラーメン屋さんのうわさを聞きました。アルパチーノがテーマの店です。なんか訳が分かりませんけど、見つけました。やっぱり辛いメニューにしたので、「有八らーめん」で赤八らーめんにしました。

Kind of...creepy
なんか。。。気持ち悪い

The Bowl
I wasn't expecting much of this ramen, and what I got met my expectations. The broth was oily and tasted like liquid shichimi, which is not too bad all things considered. The noodles were medium and curly, and the chashu was pretty standard. There was some motsu in my bowl that was a fun, unusual touch.

ラーメンの期待はそこまで高くなかったですけど、それなりにおいしかったです。スープが脂っぽくて、七味の味がしました。麺は縮れ麺で、チャーシューは結構スタンダード的でした。普通のラーメンと違って持つが入っていて、まあまあうまかったです。

Would I Go Again?
I'm glad I went, but I don't think I need to make a second trip.

行ってよかったですけど、また行かなくていいかな。

Should You Go?
I guess if you like Al Pacino?

アルパチーノファンが行くべきかな?

  2. Definitely closed now :( I became buddies with the owner 2 1/2 years ago. Told him I'd be back to visit.

    I went today, and ya. A damn laundromat. Couldn't get any info on Hitoshi-San either.

    Hope he's doing well though...
