[Miyagi] Rich tonkotsu soy sauce is addictive! Ramendo Sendaikko

Ramen Do Sendaikko, affectionately known as Sendaikko Ramen, is a ramen chain with over 10 stores mainly in Sendai.
Established in 1976, our ramen boasts a rich tonkotsu-based soy sauce soup, and once you try it, you'll be addicted!
I even have a Sendai Ramen Day once a month!
Our recommendation
is definitely the ``Nori Ramen'', a shocking ramen that is topped with so much grilled seaweed that you can't even see the noodles!

Sendai people who love Sendai will introduce the recommended stores of "Ramen Do Sendai"!

Sendai ramen is proud of its soup!

Sendai ramen with delicious tonkotsu and soy sauce flavor.
The secret to its deliciousness lies in the abundance of ingredients.
The soup is made by using five times more pork bones than usual and simmering them together with chicken bones, kelp, vegetables, etc. for over two days, resulting in a taste that can be described as a new type of tonkotsu soup that is completely different from "Hakata tonkotsu." I am.

Although the base flavor is the same, each restaurant uses slightly different amounts of ingredients, so some Sendai ramen enthusiasts enjoy comparing the flavors.
When I researched the differences in taste when writing this article, I came across a ridiculous urban legend.

"Ramendo Sendai people have miso flavor and salt flavor."

A different taste from the base!
However, if you look at the menu of your favorite restaurant, you won't find such a description.
I took the plunge and asked the staff.

"It's only available at the Aiko store."
I immediately went to investigate.

Ramendo Sendaikko Aiko branch

Although the area around JR Rikuzen-Ochiai Station is on the outskirts of Sendai City, it is a competitive area for ramen.
Ramendo Sendaikko Aiko branch is located in a land that is occupied by many big names such as Mizusawaya, but even so, the parking lot is crowded every day.
When I looked at the menu, I discovered miso flavor and salt flavor.
The miso flavor is 860 yen, and the salt flavor is 760 yen.
So this time I decided to order the miso flavor.

“Do you want thick noodles or thin noodles?”

I've never been asked this before either.
In fact, at the Aiko, Kakyoin, and Rifu stores, you can choose between thick and thin noodles.
So, when I asked the waitress which one she recommended, she replied, ``Is it okay with my preference?'' and replied with a smile, ``Thick noodles.''
The friendly staff is also one of the charms of the Aiko store.

When you taste it, you will be surprised to find that the unique Sendai tonkotsu flavor and miso flavor are an unexpected match.
Tonkotsu and miso.
Even though each person's strengths are emphasized, there is a perfect balance between them and each other's strengths do not cancel each other out.
Tonkotsu soy sauce is also delicious, but this one is also amazingly delicious!

Unfortunately, I wasn't able to eat the salty flavor due to my stomach limitations, but the combination of the rich Sendai flavor and the light salty flavor makes for a refreshing after-meal experience.

If you want to enjoy a different taste of Ramen Do Sendaikko, it might be a good idea to go to the outskirts of Sendai!
