八王子ラーメンは東京都八王子市の自慢の人気のご当地ラーメンです。 醤油ベースのあっさりの優しい味のラーメンで、刻み玉ねぎを具として使用しておりスープの表面に脂が浮いています。 シンプルな作りとなっていますが、多くのメディアにも取り上げられており、地元八王子の方々にはもちろんの事、遠方のファンも多い、東京のご当地ラーメンとなっています！ 八王子ラーメンの歴史は古く、今から60年以上前の昭和34年（1959年）に北野駅前で惣菜屋を営んでいたあるお店が区画整理による移転で子安町に引っ越すことになった際に駅から離れてしまうため惣菜屋は難しいと考え「ラーメン店」を始めることにしました。 当時はラーメン店といえば出前をする中華料理店が主流だったため、ラーメン専門で、しかも店内売りのみで生計を立てようとしたその店は、何か特徴を出そうと試行錯誤をしていました。 そんなとき、偶然、北海道旅行で「きざみ玉ねぎ」が入ったラーメン屋に出会いました。 しかし、北海道で食べたそのラーメンは食感は良かったものの、玉ねぎの辛味が抜け切らず、何とか玉ねぎの食感を損なわずに辛味を抜いたスープが作れないかと、工夫を重ねた結果、考えついたのが油です。 油は玉ねぎの辛味を抑え、甘味を引き立ててくれ、今の八王子ラーメンの原型が生まれました。

Forgot to include this in my post yesterday so I'm posting it today. When I was walking to Minami-Senju I stopped in for lunch at a place called "Hikari Ramen" (中華そば 光) and enjoyed a really interesting bowl of ramen... I got the special shoyu ramen (特製醬油らーめん) I believe it was, and I think it cost about ~1000 yen but it had some unique characteristics as you can probably tell by the photo. I'm pretty sure out of all the bowls of ramen I've eaten I've never had one with a pink egg. I was surprised at first but just thought it was kind of something funny that gave the ramen shop its own sort of identity. Also, while I have had meatballs in some of the ramen I've eaten before, it's quite rare in my experience (or maybe I'm just not ordering the right ramen lol) so I thought that was kind of interesting as well. The ramen tasted great though, the pink didn't add any extra unique flavor to the egg as far as I could tell but it was all really good. Interestingly enough, the seats downstairs were all taken and one of the people said that they had extra seating upstairs where I was shown into a sort of like storage room with no one else in it lol. It was an interesting experience but it was nice since I got to eat all by myself and I could even see out of the window a bit. All in all it was a good experience and I recommend it if you're in the area! It's really close to Minowabashi Station

Visited Fujiiya a small eatery in Kameido famous for its gyoza. It was definitely good, and they had an interesting tare for the gyoza as well. I think it had chashu inside of it and it tasted great. I threw in a little soy sauce as well but I think it's probably perfect without it. I recommend shaking the bottle before pouring it as I had a little too much oil come out instead of the actual sauce. It was also my first time getting shoyu ramen in a while. I'm usually a bigger fan of miso, probably because it feels warm and filling on cold days but is great on hot days too. That being said, I was pleasantly surprised by this shoyu ramen, was a really refreshing flavor and the noodles were perfect. The restaurant is really cheap too, I think a normal chashu ramen and 5-piece gyoza was just ¥780, which is super cheap. They also had a lot of cool photos and signatures on the wall from/with famous entertainers like "Downtown," etc. Cool place, definitely recommend it!

日本人の食卓 。コロナ禍でなかなか外食にいけないので自作料理で外食した気分に浸っています。最近のインスタント麺は本当に美味しい。具材を乗せれば立派なラーメン屋のラーメンに。

醤油そば 810円 肩ロースのスモークチャーシュー 100円 @麺処はら田（埼玉県さいたま市） ほん田グループ出身で令和と共に産声を上げたお店 強めにネギの浮かび、酸味のエッジも感じるやや和風よりのスープ。 良い意味で食べ手を選ばない仕上がりだと思う。 手揉み麺チョイスにより、唇が楽しむ麺の啜りごこちと、モチモチ感が楽しめた。 焼豚もしっかりと薫香が感じられつつも柔らかさもあり、満足度は非常に高い。

ねぎそば 950円 @中華そば まるき（千葉県松戸市） まるきの代名詞とも言える煮干スープと草村の麺。 そこに喩えるならかいざんを彷彿とさせる塩ダレで和えた細切りのネギやチャーシューが乗っかる一杯。ネギの存在感がクセになる。
