Unique ramen shop right next to JR Nishinomiya Station

4 minutes walk from JR Nishinomiya Station

My name is Maido Okura. A new ramen shop with long lines at Naruohama is about to open near JR Nishinomiya Station, so we decided to visit it right away.

Cool store interior

The inside of the store is stylish and has a pop feel.

The base of the restaurant is a yakitori restaurant called ``Niwatorinosuke'' located near Hankyu Nishinomiya Kitaguchi Station. When we were forced to open a store in a different direction due to the decrease in customers due to the coronavirus pandemic, we created ramen using chickens that we have absolute confidence in.

The ramen has been polished to bring out the full flavor of the chicken, making it a bowl you won't find anywhere else.

Excitement that grows with each flame

Ramen with high entertainment value

Charcoal grilled with the aroma of chicken oil

The heart of the ramen at DURA Mente is the charcoal-grilled chicken that sits in the chashu position. You can see the process of baking from inside and outside the store, and it will captivate your eyes.

Bincho charcoal is used.

Lightly season with salt and pepper, then generously drizzle with chicken oil (chee yu), then raise the heat all at once and grill.

The heart of the ramen at DURA Mente is the charcoal-grilled chicken that sits in the chashu position. You can see the process of baking from inside and outside the store, and it will captivate your eyes. Bincho charcoal is used. Lightly season with salt and pepper, then generously drizzle with chicken oil (chee yu), then raise the heat all at once and grill.

This charcoal-grilled chicken is perfectly cooked.

The flavor is brought out sharply, and the fragrant smoked smell stimulates your appetite.

The specialty chicken is Satsuma Chiran chicken

Branded chicken, Satsuma Chiran chicken

The chicken used is Satsuma Chiran chicken.

Chiran is a town in Minamikyushu City, Kagoshima Prefecture, and is famous for Chiran tea.

Satsuma Chiran chicken is a brand that is said to be the king of chickens because it is raised for a long period of time and is rich in collagen, linoleic acid, and amino acids, and has excellent fat and texture.

``DURA Men TE'' uses Satsuma Chiran chicken (parent chicken) to enjoy an even richer flavor.

Magic seasoning, chicken oil (chiyu)

The black one is on the back, and the one on the right is chicken oil.

Speaking of ``DURA Mente'', the most popular dish is the chicken paitan yubai (950 yen).

The first thing that goes into the bowl is the kaeshi and chicken oil.

Chicken oil is a mass of flavor that is also called a magic seasoning.

Contains vitamin E, which has antioxidant properties, and selenium, which suppresses active oxygen.

By the way, this selenium is said to prevent arteriosclerosis and reduce the risk of myocardial infarction and cerebral infarction.

*This does not mean that the more you consume, the better it will be for your body.

Rich chicken broth soup

Whisk the cloudy soup further

Whisk to make a soft soup

A cloudy white soup is added to it.

Next, whisk the soup.

By emulsifying it, you can enjoy the flavor and sweetness of the product.

Boiling time is short

Straight thin noodles go perfectly with soup.

I want to eat it right away

Topped with early red, mizuna, green onions, and charcoal-grilled chicken, it's complete.

The long-awaited real food

creamy soup

Let's start with the soup.

By whisking, the rich soup becomes smooth and creamy, melting in your mouth. And it's a soup that tastes more like chicken than I imagined.

The soup is made by carefully extracting the flavor from hot water, which is assisted by chicken oil.

The texture of biting into the noodles is also fun.

The foamy soup clings tightly to the thin noodles, making you shiver! When you do this, the flavor instantly spreads in your mouth.

The vegetables toppings, such as mizuna, early red, and white onions, refresh your palate and accelerate your next bite.

Overwhelming presence, charcoal-grilled chicken

This alone is a dish that will make you want to drink more beer.

Charcoal-grilled chicken that was grilled magnificently right in front of your eyes.

Satsuma Chiran Chicken originally has a strong flavor, but by using Hinedori chicken in the charcoal-grilled chicken at DURA Mente, you can enjoy an even stronger flavor.

In general, the meat of Hinetori is tough, so it is often difficult to eat, but I think that this meat is unique in that although it has a chewy texture, it is not difficult to chew through.

It has just the right amount of texture, and the more you bite into it, the more umami comes out.

Extra chicken is available as an option (250 yen), so you can eat as much as you want.

The taste is also fun

strange taste items

On the table are yuzu pepper, yuzu shichimi, and black pepper as flavorful items.

You can mix it into the soup little by little and enjoy it endlessly.

However, I recommend leaving the soup. In fact, it's also delicious to eat ``black rice'' (small 200 yen, large 400 yen) with soup.

For those who absolutely want to eat ``black rice,'' there is also a ``black rice set'' (1,150 yen), so you can order it according to how hungry you are.
