Karyusankan / 華陸餐館

A couple of months ago, a friend of ours suggested spending the day in Yokosuka. To get an early start, we decided to stay at a hostel in Yokohama near Chinatown. As we were going to stay in Chinatown, I had one request - that we have dinner at a place called [Karyusankan]. A co-worker recommended this place for it's tosho mabo-men.

二ヶ月前私たちの友達が一日中横須賀に遊びに行こうとゆう誘いがあって、朝早く行く為、横浜中華街の近くのホステルに泊りました。中華街の近くなんで、僕から一つのリクエストがあった。会社の同僚から教えてもらった店「華陸餐館」の刀削麻婆麺がおすすめと言われてた。

And yes, it's as spicy as it looks, if not more so. Very delicious.

見てる通り、スパシーで激辛!でも味がバツグン、とっても美味しい。


My wife and my friend's girlfriend both ordered the tantan-men which was listed on the menu as the most popular item. Unfortunately for them, the tantan-men was one of the worst tasting noodles they've ever had. A regular bowl of tantan-men should be spicy with a fair amount of sesame, but the tantanmen here was full of vinegar! You couldn't taste any sesame and the vinegar in the soup was just too strong. In fact, they couldn't finish eating it. My friend Yukio settled for a simple bowl of miso ramen and we all shared a plate of gyoza.

僕の嫁と友達の彼女がメニューに書いてあた、店の人気ナンバーワンの商品、坦々麺。でもそれが二人に凶になるとは。一般的な坦々麺はスパイシーで胡麻もたっぷり入ってるはずだが、ここの店の坦々麺のつゆうがなぜか酢の味しかしない。坦々麺じゃないよ。今まで食べた坦々麺なら、一番不味いかも知りません。友達は普通の味噌ラーメンを注文で、みんなで餃子も食べました。
