I went back to the delicious ramen shop, Ramen Tsukemen Kokokko, which I previously visited during the reception 🍜.

The nearest station is JR Nishinomiya Station, but it’s also within walking distance from Hanshin Nishinomiya Station and Hankyu Imazu Line's Hanshin Kokusai Station 🚃.

There are counter and table seats, and I was happy to find not only cold water but also jasmine tea available 🍵.

On the table, there were plenty of condiments:
Soy sauce,
Kombu vinegar,
Ramen tare 🍜,
Chili oil 🔥,
Ramen pepper 🍜,
Pickled ginger 🫚,
Spicy kodanai.

I ordered the limited-time offer:
Rich red shrimp dipping noodles 🍜🦐 for ¥1400,
Mini fried rice 🍚 for ¥380,
And spicy cod roe 🔥 for ¥200 🍜🍚.

For the rich red shrimp dipping noodles 🍜, I could choose between hot or cold noodles and opted for cold. The dipping sauce came in a hot stone pot 🔥, with thick noodles 🍜, grilled chashu pork 🐷, rare chashu pork 🐷, dried shrimp 🦐, spinach 🥬, and lemon 🍋, making it quite luxurious ✨. The soup arrived extremely hot, which paired well with the cold noodles, and the flavor was very shrimp-like with a rich, thick consistency, making it delicious 🦐. Adding the dried shrimp enhanced the shrimp flavor even more, making it tasty 🦐. The thick noodles had a nice chewy texture from being chilled and were delicious 🍜. The grilled chashu was tender and rich, while the rare chashu paired perfectly with the soup—it was soft and flavorful 🐷. The spinach complemented the rich soup and was delicious 🥬. Halfway through, I squeezed lemon over the noodles for a refreshing taste 🍋. Adding the separately ordered spicy cod roe gave it a nice spicy flavor 🔥.

For the mini fried rice 🍚, I could hear the sounds of the Chinese wok frying the rice, which raised my expectations!! Even though it was a mini portion, it was quite filling!! The fried rice was fluffy, and the combination of egg and pork was perfect 🥚🐷. The larger pieces of meat made it satisfying and tasty 🐷. I also added pickled ginger and spicy cod roe, and it was incredibly delicious 🫚🔥.

This ramen shop is fantastic, so definitely check it out! 🍜
