ASCII Gourmet Kuniya Building, a famous raw pasta shop "JINJIN", is "uniform" and "universal" at Shinjuku 2 -chome.

A famous store loved by many people is back, and the one who once went to

I went to Tokyo from university and studied in various places in various places.After all, there are many people, and there are anything, so I remember watching everywhere as part of social study (useful words).

In particular, when I visited a long -established coffee shop or restaurant that has been around for a long time, I felt like I was a member of a person living in Tokyo, or as an adult.

I was a humanities, so I often went to bookstores.So, while thinking about the books you purchased, entering a well -known shop and filling your hungry, it is a modest happiness.However, it was a student's time, so it was difficult to reach high -end dishes ...

There are various bookstores, but Kinokuniya bookstores often went to Shinjuku.In the basement, raw pasta was the famous "Jinjin".Since it was founded in 1970, Simon & Garfunkle announced the Bridge over Troubled Water.Naturally, it was before I was born (I was born in 1986).

When I walked in Shinjuku and walked in Shinjuku, I often visited Jinjin on the way back from Kinokuniya Bookstore and nearby used record stores.In that sense, it is a store that I remember for me.However, with the renovation of Kinokuniya Bookstore, the store was closed in July 2021.

The jinjin has revived.On December 24, 2021, it opened in Shinjuku 2 -chome, about 600m from Kinokuniya Bookstore.Walk straight east on Shinjuku -dori, which is lined up by Kinokuniya Bookstore, cross the intersection of Isetan Shinjuku store, and pass through Shinjuku Marui Annex and stationery store "World Hall".

It's along Shinjuku -dori, so you won't get lost, and it's easy to see.Rather than JR Shinjuku Station, Tokyo Metro's Shinjuku Sanchome Station is the closest.Is it the image of being close to Shinjuku Gate in Gyoen?

Some people may remember the counter and the old stores

It seems that it is not the only one who was excited about this news.When I was listening to the memories of Jinjin from the ASCII editorial department, Miya's professional, who was an ASCII producer, talked about her memories.

ASCII's erotic person, Miya's professional.Instead, he doesn't look so great.I love eating veterans

Miyano's professional "Shinjuku's JINJIN, nostalgic. When I entered ASCII, I was Akihabara, but I often went to Shinjuku to buy books and bought SF works from Hayakawa Shobo at Kinokuniya Bookstore.I was .... When I bought the book, when I looked into the basement Jinjin, a person with a face was eating Napolitan ... it was a lot of memories !! "

In addition, the photographer who is in charge of studio shooting in ASCII is famous in the department because he likes alcohol, but he seems to have been there well."There is a familiar bar at Shinjuku Sanchome, I looked at the book at Kinokuniya Bookstore, ate" Special Meet Sauce "at Jinjin, and went to the bar. Can I go to 2 -chome?"I did it.

Jinjin was loved by people in the industry.Let's go to the new store right away.It seems that there is a nostalgic taste, and some menus are newly born with confidence.

The taste of the specialty menu is involved in the traditional sauce in raw pasta

By the way, it is finally a real meal.Basically, the menu provided at the old store keeps the same taste.

The specialty "Jinjin Napolitan"

First of all, "Jinjin Napolitan" (700 yen).There is a nostalgic napolitan style using Jinjin's specialty tomato sauce.

The taste of tomato sauce, which has been loved for 50 years, is unique

However, it is a long -established store, so even if you take one tomato sauce, it has been reviewed for 50 years and has been brushed up.After all, it is half a century, so the weight of history is different.

This sour tomato sauce matches the chewy texture of raw pasta that JINJIN has been particular about for many years.Nostalgic but original taste.Let's enjoy the Napolitan that many people have loved.

By the way, there is also a sweet taste with ketchup, "nostalgic Napolitan" (750 yen).This is just "nostalgic", so let's put in a red wiener instead of bacon.Napolitan, a pure cafe ...It may be interesting to eat with Jinjin Napolitan.

"Special meat sauce" that feels pride in a simple appearance

Next is "Special Meet Sauce" (730 yen).This is also a popular menu of JINJIN.The nostalgic meat sauce is more like "spaghetti" than pasta.

There are many fans in this meat sauce, but rather than a gentle taste, the taste and aroma of the meat come "Gatsun!"It has a punchy finish.

The impact of meat sauce is stronger than it looks

The mental texture of raw pasta accepts it, so it is more eaten than it looks, and it may be surprising for those who eat for the first time.I simply say "meat sauce", but there is a strong sense of "meat" anyway.

If you don't know, you may be surprised ... "Jinjin Calbonara"

And "Jinjin Carbonara" (880 yen).Calbonara means "charcoal -grilled pasta" and has the taste of eggs and fresh cream, but Jinjin used tomato sauce ... or rather "cream pasta with tomato sauce".。

The tomato sauce accents.You can eat little by little in taste

This is also a menu with many fans, and I missed the author, saying, "Yes, Jinjin's carbonara was this."

The cream pasta is included in the tomato sauce, which makes a simple richness and a mellow texture, and a sour tomato is an accent.The unusual taste is a little different from the general "tomato cream pasta".

The richness that is not different for the newly appeared "rich carbonara" is attractive

Speaking of Jinjin's carbonara, many people think that it is a tomato sauce.I was the same.What I want those people to try is the new "rich carbonara" (880 yen).

Speaking of carbonara, "rich carbonara" looks like this

As you can see, it is a pasta that can be said to be the so -called "carbonara" appearance.

According to the staff of the shop, Jinjin carbonara did not try to make a unusual species, but was born to "add a little" to carbonara to use traditional tomato sauce.

However, speaking of carbonara, some people imagine the rich flavor of that egg, and they decided to develop a simple thing.

However, it is not just a tomato sauce from Jinjin Carbonara.In order to make the sauce rich, cheese and whipped creams are included about three times as much as before, and bacon is also changed to thicker ones.

By the way, as for bacon, Jinjin Carbonara has also been changed to a thick one, so it may be fun for old fans to compare the memories of those days with the current taste.

The thick bacon is working

There is no fake in the name of the rich carbonara.The moment you eat, the mellow scent of fresh cream and cheese spreads in your mouth.

Because of the solid creamyness, the saltiness and chewyness of thick bacon come to use.Although it was simple, I felt a well -established balance in the well -thinking balance.

The rich carbonara is a royal road style with a solid and delicious food.Jinjin Calbonara fans are also really want to eat.

"Shirasu and Oba Peperoncino" with a fresh taste

By the way, another dish is "Shirasu and Oba Peperoncino" (850 yen).This is the first menu that appeared in a new store.

The scent of garlic and large leaves is appetizing "Shirasu and Oba Peperoncino"

Speaking of Peperoncino, of course, the scent of garlic and the pungency of pepper are the points, but both of Jinjin work well.

The reason why it doesn't feel tight is that it has a refreshing aftertaste with the refreshing scent of large leaves and the texture of shirasu.Garlic and pepper stimulation is felt properly, and large leaves are accented, and it is a dish that can be felt on a thin layer and tongue.

Watch out for a fresh taste that is different from Jinjin's classic.In fact, it seems that this Peperoncino was the best selling in a week after opening, and the support from women seems to be high.

The scent and texture overlap with each other

By the way, I have touched the menu roughly, but it should not be remembered that Jinjin's pasta is "with all drinks" (the price of pasta contains a drink).In the Shinjuku area, you can eat pasta and have a drink ...

One drink comes for free

The shop is impressive with a clean counter, and there is a table seat in the back.I also pay attention to the measures against infectious diseases, and when I have lunch quickly, I feel like I can put it alone.

Yes, when the resurrection, many people who once attended the old store said, "I want you to open in Shinjuku!"Although it was a little far from Kinokuniya Bookstore, it was still open to the Shinjuku area and opened in an easy -to -go place.

Nostalgic and mochi are convinced for both old fans and young people

Jinjin has a 50 -year history in the Shinjuku area where the old store was in the Shinjuku area.What is its charm?

One is the nostalgic taste of the specialty menu.The finish of the flavor that holds down the acupoints and the mochi mochi of raw pasta, which is common to the new menu.

However, not only will it develop a nostalgic menu, but also the new carbonara and Peperoncino are also attractive.In addition, it seems that seasonal pasta will appear about four times a year.Based on the tradition, the arrangements that fit in the present era will be effective.In those menus, the taste of "universal" loved by everyone.

Above all, the good access by opening in Shinjuku is attractive.Even those who have been going well in the past can easily go to Jinjin if they come to Shinjuku.Also, even those who visit for the first time are excellent in taste as well as meals in Shinjuku.There are pasta that everyone can understand.

The pasta that you eat at Jinjin will surely be a memory of your Shinjuku, just like the old store.If you get lost in Shinjuku, how about jinjin?
