491-1 Shinjo-cho, Shobara-shi, 727-0004
It is located on the right side of the intersection heading to Shobara city, and the building based on green and yellow gives a nostalgic atmosphere from the Showa era. The restaurant, which started as a milk shop, has now become famous as a restaurant loved by locals and people outside the city. It’s been 50 years since I’ve been particular about ramen. There are plenty of ramen menus unique to milk shops, and milk miso hormone champon has become popular.
