Beppu Chuka soba Kumaneko

令和6年度 伴走型小規模事業者支援推進事業 別府商工会議所

The bowl is filled with pork slices, a rich soup, and medium-thick noodles.

At first glance, it appears very indulgent, but after taking a bite, you find yourself wondering, “What is this refreshing sensation?” It’s a unique ramen dish.

The noodles are crafted from whole wheat flour, while the soup is made from a blend of seafood and pork bones, all without any artificial seasonings.
The pork slices, bamboo shoots, and shrimp wontons are all prepared in-house. Notably, the bamboo shoots are made using only the tender tips, leading one Italian to exclaim, “These are the best bamboo shoots I’ve ever had in my life.”

 

Upon closer inspection, you’ll notice a generous amount of chopped onions scattered over the large slices of pork. The crunchy onions, which mix with the soup as you taste it, further enhance the overall flavour of the dish.

The owner, Mrs. Nagao, opened this shop during the challenging times of the COVID-19 pandemic. Previously, she ran a Yakitori shop for twenty-one years and a Monjayaki restaurant for eight years.

She explains, “I wanted to do something to revive this restaurant, and that was when I met the manager of Chuka Soba Yamaneko, a very popular restaurant in Bungotakada.”

Chuka Soba Yamaneko, the famous ramen shop, provides the Kaeshi broth that serves as the base for her soup, while Mrs. Nagao prepares everything else herself. 

 

She also manages two eateries located next to each other. From the outside, the entrance on the right leads to the Yakitori shop, while the left door opens to the Monjayaki and ramen noodle shop. 

In the evening, customers can order from both restaurants.

The broth for her Monjayaki is made with natural ingredients such as bonito and kelp, which the staff prepares right before your eyes and grills to perfection. The Monjayaki has crispy edges, similar to rice crackers, making it an ideal small bite to enjoy with beer.

Mrs. Nagao says,“I would rather keep moving forward than stop.”

She has maintained this positive attitude throughout the difficulties of the pandemic. Her gentle and calm smile reflects the strength she has gained from overcoming challenges.
