Aji no Mensho
restaurant
味のめん匠
Place to try Hachinohe Ramen, characterized by a light sardines and chicken broth.
Hachinohe's signature ramen style features a delicate broth made from niboshi (dried sardines) and chicken, lighter and more nuanced than the heavy tonkotsu or miso broths found elsewhere in Tohoku. Aji no Mensho is a go-to spot for this local specialty, serving it with thin, wavy noodles and simple toppings. The shop is small and no-frills, counter seats, a few tables, and a menu that doesn't try to be anything other than excellent ramen. Go during lunch for the freshest broth before the day's batch runs out.
