Shimonada Station at sunset At Shimonada Station, Iyo City, Ehime Prefecture. In late March, the sun sets over the Seto Inland Sea in front of the station. Am I the only one who feels that there is something sacred about the roof of the platform and the telegraph pole that stand out black in contrast?

Reflections on the sunset A scene at the summit of Mt. Wakakusa, Nara City, Nara Prefecture. A deer is staring at the sunset over Nara Downtown. In such a scene, do deer also indulge in thought?

#017 There are about 50 restaurants and confectionery shops in Tonomachi. This is the fourth in the Gourmet series! Here are some popular ramen restaurants that are no exaggeration to say that they are the face of Tonomachi! ~Captivated by the Commitment to Taste~ Homemade noodles Enramen Tonomachi is in the Mikazukihara district, and the ramen shop is very close to the "Hidenoya Udon noodles" introduced earlier. Authentic soy sauce ramen can be tasted in Kyushu, where the pork bone culture is deep-rooted, and now it seems that there are people who come all the way from outside the prefecture as well as from outside the In the town. There are various toppings such as miso, salt, and tomato ramen unique to Tonomachi, but the most popular ramen on Enramen's signature menu and No. 1 is "China Soba Soy Sauce". What is Chinese Soba noodles? I didn't understand it at first. Soba even though it's a ramen shop? That's right. Actually, Chinese Soba is an old way of calling ramen. In fact, people in the Kanto area call the light soy sauce ramen Chinese Soba noodles. When the owner was in the Kanto region, he was surprised at how delicious it was when he ate Chinese Soba noodles, so when he made the product, he dared not use soy sauce ramen, but Chinese Soba noodles. I've eaten Chinese Soba here, and it's so delicious that I can only say "Tege, it's delicious!" That's right, the owner seems to be made with Commitment to the "aftertaste", and the preparation can be done from 4 or 5 in the morning! !! Amazing, isn't it? In addition, Commitment is made to noodles, soup, ingredients, and even chopsticks without using any chemical seasonings, and it seems that they are pursuing the original taste of the ingredients. When you come to Tonomachi, it is worth visiting! Before you know it, you may be captivated by the ramen here! Homemade noodles Business hours/11:30~13:30 * There are lines due to limited time.
