Ramen Boo / らーめん ぶう

This ramen shop is located on Suzuran Dori near Sangenjaya station. We come here from time to time, although this is a Hokkaido ramen shop, their staple item is tonkotsu (a pork based broth) which originated in Kyushu. But what caught my eye and was wanting to try was their poster for their latest ramen - tomaton! Tonkotsu ramen topped with a tomato sauce and cheese!! Yes, I'm not kidding.

こちらのらーめん屋は三軒茶屋のすずらん通りにある小さな店。たまに食べに行くラーメン屋です。店の看板に書かれてるのは北の国で生まれたとんこつらーめん。結構こってり系なんですが、気になる新作品が食べてみたかたです。それは‐とまとん！とんこつらーめんにトマトソースとチーズが乗せてる！

This is the poster that made me want to try it.

このポスターを見て、食べたくなる気になった。

Tomaton Ramen / とまとん

As you can see, the ramen is topped with a tomato sauce and a slice of cheese. Tomato and Cheese? On a top of ramen? Yes! And it's delicious. As this is a tonkotsu ramen, the broth may be a little on the heavy side. This shop also uses thin noodles. And once you start mixing the tomato sauce into the broth, it will seem like you're eating a second dish for the price of one. And you can always order another helping of noodles to eat with your tomato based flavored soup.

写真の通り、らーめんの上にトマトソースとチーズが乗ってます。トマトとチーズ？ラーメンの上で？そうなんです。それが結構合うんです。美味しいよ。味のベースはとんこつ。苦手な人ならちょっとこってりかも知りません。こちらの店も細麺使用。麺が少ないと思ったら、替え玉を買って、トマトソースを混ぜたら、また別の味が楽しめる。一つの値段で二品を食べた感じですね。

Tonkotsu Chashu-men / とんこつチャーシュー麺

Mikako ordered the tonkotsu chashu-men. As we both did not order an extra helping of noodles, we found that we were still a little hungry and bought some pastries at a nearby bakery.

美香子はとんこつチャーシュー麺を食べた。私たしは替え玉頼んでなかった為、まだ小腹が空いてたんで、近くのパン屋でパンを買いました。

Bon Appetit!

いただきます！
