The nostalgic Chinese flavor is the charm of the Showa retro diner

Savour the nostalgic flavors in a rural hideaway

Located in a quiet residential area of Tanohata Village, 'Ramen Wind Wind' is a beloved retro Chinese restaurant that has been cherished by the locals for many years. It's hard to imagine from the outside, but stepping into the spacious interior, the nostalgic aroma of Chinese cuisine permeates the air.

Conveying the flavorful taste of the coastal region

Open the menu and you'll find familiar items like ramen, gyoza, and fried rice. However, the biggest charm of Wind Wind lies in its simple yet flavorful soup. The light-colored soup embodies the exquisite combination of sweetness and umami, unique to the coastal region of Iwate.

Feeling the taste of nostalgia in the unchanged flavor

The chewy texture of the curly noodles, the robust bite of the char siu, the generous filling of the gyoza and shumai. Each of these items evokes memories of the nostalgic Showa-era Chinese restaurant and is carefully crafted. Despite the changing times, the taste of Wind Wind remains unchanged and has been loved by the local people for many years.

Experience the scenery of the Showa period in the evening

Although the evening operating hours are early, the dimly lit interior evokes the scenery of a Showa-era town. Tucked away in a narrow, long alley, it's a small, comforting space. Preserving its old-fashioned elegance while maintaining its unchanged flavor, 'Ramen Wind Wind' is truly a hidden gem of Iwate.

I visited the store I remember going to in high school for the first time in over ten years. Thank you for still being open (´；ω；｀) Stir-fried sonmyo is a must! I chose Cantonese noodles for the first time, and they were delicious with lots of ingredients! Thank you for the meal.

It was my first time visiting. Other people seemed to have a lot of comments about tantanmen and miso ramen, but this time I received ramen (600 yen) and half fried rice (400 yen). The ramen is medium-thin curly noodles, and has a nostalgic taste that goes well with the clear, mild soup. The fried rice had a good texture and was a simple but delicious dish. It's a store you'll want to come back to. It was a feast.

I stopped by for the first time. First, I ordered ramen, and it was served in about 5 minutes. Other customers were ordering dandan noodles. I think the taste is the standard taste that you can get at restaurants in Kita-Sanriku. I feel like I've been used to eating it for a long time. The medium-thin curly noodles, the char siu has a firm texture rather than the soft and melty char siu that is currently popular. It's pretty common at restaurants in Kita-Sanriku. You can also eat similar chashu in Kuji.

I used to stop by here when I was commuting to Hachinohe during my previous job. It is characterized by its sweet and spicy taste. Mapo ramen is not spicy and has thin noodles that will stretch out if you leave it loose. But it's like an old-fashioned Chinese restaurant. I used to stop by when I wanted to experience the coastal Showa taste that I had when I was little. Their business hours are until 8:30 pm, and I'm impressed by the way they work hard in the darkness. I want a store like this to stay open forever.
