We had lunch at Yakisoba Mikasa (焼きそば みかさ) in Jinbocho. They serve only yakisoba.
We had tried to eat there before, but unfortunately, they had already closed. So, we gave it another try this time. We arrived around 2 p.m., and luckily, we were able to get in. However, we were the last customers of the day, as they stopped accepting guests right after us.
We joined the end of the line and bought our meal tickets from the vending machine. The seasoning options were either salt or Worcestershire sauce. An extra-large portion was free of charge, while a smaller size was 200 yen less. Adding squid and shrimp cost an extra 150 yen, but unfortunately, it was already sold out.
A sign in the shop stated that they use only flour from Hokkaido and make their noodles in-house.
The restaurant has only a long counter surrounding the kitchen. Each table is stocked with condiments like red pickled ginger (beni shoga), tenkasu (crispy tempura bits), and mayonnaise with mustard.
I ordered yakisoba seasoned with salt, while my friend ordered a large portion of yakisoba seasoned with Worcestershire sauce.
The yakisoba came topped with a sunny-side-up egg, green onions, fried pork, bean sprouts, and green laver. The noodles, made in-house, had a nice, springy texture and were well-coated with the sauce.
We shared both types of yakisoba, and while both were delicious, I personally preferred the salt-seasoned one because of its lighter flavor. I added plenty of red ginger and mayonnaise with mustard to enhance the taste. It was absolutely delicious!😊
