Dào Chǎn Jià - 桜川市

This is a restaurant that was originally a branch of the famous Dosanko restaurant, and still sources its ingredients from Dosanko. With over 40 years of history, the restaurant has a nostalgic Showa-era feel, but their miso curry ramen is simply delicious. The traditional, simple miso ramen may not appeal to younger diners, but it is definitely worth a try.

This is not Dosanko Ramen. It is Do-San Yome. This restaurant branched off from Dosanko Ramen, which popularized miso ramen in the Kanto region during the Showa era. Please google their history, you will understand. I hope the nostalgic taste and atmosphere will remain forever.

The dishes ordered in order were Chinese ramen, soy sauce ramen, beef bowl, simmered pork intestines, and dumplings. The Chinese ramen and soy sauce ramen had different flavors and ingredients, with the Chinese ramen being more delicious. The beef bowl had a sukiyaki-like flavor, the simmered pork intestines were well-cooked, and the dumplings had a strong garlic flavor that was delicious. I would like to go back again. I wanted to try the miso ramen, but I couldn't tell the difference between the Chinese ramen and soy sauce ramen, so I asked and found out that Chinese ramen is traditional Chinese style. I didn't know that, so I decided to order it. There used to be many ramen shops like this about 40 years ago. I hope they continue to thrive.
