ワンタン麺 / Wontonmen / Ajino Ōnishi - Manazuru, Kanagawa

Odawara style ramen, containing a shoyu based pork soup. Noodles are supplied by Murofushi Seimenjo. Wontons and/or extra chashu recommended. Ajino Ōnishi originally opened in Yugawara, Kanagawa in 1935. Original master Hinatsu-san first worked as a butcher, hence he created a soup made from pork only. Now his grandson is the 3rd generation master of the Yugawara flagship. Six additional Ajino Ōnishi branches have opened as norenwake over the years, all of them run by either family members or a master that trained in Yugawara. Three of the stores have since closed and three are still open. The original master of this Manazuru branch is Chikaraishi-san, who worked at the Yugawara honten from 1970 to 1985. Now her son runs this shop as 2nd generation. Open 11am-2:30pm, since around 1985. Less
