01 / ABOUT THE PLACE

About this place

Want a pronounced niboshi flavour, but not sure how rich you want your ramen? JIN offers two options: Niboshi Ramen and Goku Niboshi Ramen. The former has a light broth made with plenty of niboshi (dried sardines); the latter combines niboshi with pork-bone broth for a deeper, fuller taste. One diner who tried the Goku Niboshi said the fish flavour came through strongly in the rich soup, yet the bowl was easy to enjoy, without bothersome bitterness or off-notes. It suits anyone looking for intensity as well as a well-balanced broth.

Noodle texture and toppings add another dimension to the choice. A diner who ordered the Goku Niboshi Special praised its firm, straight noodles and the chopped onion, which brings texture and flavour to the soup. Onion is also available as a topping, so you can add it to taste. For an even bolder take on rich niboshi ramen, consider Nibo Guts, which is described as garlicky and served with a stronger-flavoured broth.

Tsukemen offers a different way to enjoy the noodles. The menu includes both rich niboshi tsukemen and tsukemen, and diners have mentioned enjoying the onion in the dipping broth as well as the soup-wari served afterwards, when the remaining broth is diluted for drinking. The soupless noodles come in portions of 200g, 300g or 400g, making it easy to choose how much to order. Alongside its niboshi ramen, JIN offers several styles of eating, from ramen and tsukemen to soupless noodles.

Dine-in is available, and the restaurant is suited to solo meals. Payment is cash only, and reservations are not accepted.
