Gold Soy Sauce Ramen with spicy oil
About RAMEN
The ramen sauce and chicken broth made from original "gold soy sauce" that you have originally made with the onion, garlic and flavored vegetables have a good affinity with the soup. The rich flavor and taste of "gold soy sauce" produce a rich taste while light. It is the finest soy sauce ramen that the strong taste and personality shine in simple.
オリジナルで作っていただいている”金醤油”に玉ねぎ・ニンニク・香味野菜で味の深みを出したラーメンタレと鶏がらのスープが相性抜群。”金醤油”のコクと香りがあっさりしている中に濃厚な旨味を生み出しています。シンプルな中に強烈な旨味と個性が光る極上醤油ラーメンです。
Message to New Yorker
Hello. It is "KING-emon" of a soy sauce ramen specialty store. Our ramen has been selected as Osaka Best Ramen for three consecutive years. I ordered soy sauce all over Japan and tried trial and error, but I was not able to make a reasonable amount of noodles, and developed the original "gold soy sauce". I think pork bone ramen is popular in New York, but I decided to go to New York this time because I want you to eat the taste of soy sauce ramen that Japan is proud of. I would like many people to eat our finest golden soy sauce ramen. Thank you.
こんにちは。醤油ラーメン専門店の”金久右衛門”です。私たちのラーメンは3年連続大阪ベストラーメンに選ばれました。日本中の醤油を取り寄せ試行錯誤しましたが納得のいくらーめんが作れず、オリジナルの”金醤油”を開発しました。ニューヨークでは豚骨ラーメンが人気だと思いますが、日本が誇る醤油ラーメンの旨味を味わってほしいという思いから今回ニューヨークへ行くことを決めました。少しでも多くの方に、私たちの極上金醤油ラーメンを食べていただきたいです。宜しくお願い致します。

Real Rich Garlic SENDAI Miso Ramen
About RAMEN
I have created a rich Ramen by making full use of skills I improved all over Japan. Genuine Rich Garlic SENDAI Miso Ramen uses calm stock and “Sendai Miso” which is one of three greatest Miso in Japan. By adding garlic, the flavor and the taste of each ingredient can be well extracted. A rich flavor should given off in your mouth when you take a sip. Also, you can enjoy the combination of the original soup, noodles, and homemade roast pork. You must be addicted to this taste. Hope you try and enjoy real Ramen taste.
Massage to New Yorker
I located “Ramen QUROKU” in Sendai city, Miyagi, Tohoku region. Moreover, I have opened stores for various events held throughout Japan and have attracted many people. Especially, this menu has been very popular everywhere. This time, I would like to offer real taste of Ramen to everyone in New York. You will lose it if you don’t eat it!
