Where is the best ramen in Zhengzhou?

Xiao Ji Three Fresh Braised Noodles, I think they are delicious, located on Wenhua Road.

Xiao Honghe, the founder of Xiaoji Braised Noodles, was originally a Yifu noodle chef at the state-owned Changchun Hotel in Zhengzhou. After retirement, he led his two sons to open a braised noodle restaurant. He did not follow the traditional mutton braised noodles style, but found inspiration from his specialty Yifu noodles. He added delicious and nutritious sea cucumbers and squid to the mutton braised noodles, calling it three delicacies braised noodles.

When Xiao Ji Braised Noodles first opened in 1986, it didn’t even have a store. It started with a canvas tent, a low table, a bench and a pot of soup. In a blink of an eye, Xiao Ji's main store alone now pays more than 1 million yuan in profits and taxes to the state every year!

Many people have the same memory. At that time, Xiaoji Braised Noodle House was located in the triangle area at the intersection of Renmin Road and Dongtaikang Road and was open all night. On a snowy night, three or two close friends gathered here happily, ordering a plate of shredded red beans, a plate of grilled mutton, and a steaming bowl of three-fresh noodles in front of each person, even with a bottle of the most ordinary white wine. You can also have unlimited pleasure!

The origin of this braised noodles is said to be related to the Anti-Japanese War. During the Anti-Japanese War, Japanese aircraft often raided Zhengzhou. At that time, there was a chef named Zhao. One day, the Eighth Route Army came to his noodle shop to eat noodles. It happened to be a Japanese bombing. After avoiding the bombing, the noodles became cold. Chef Zhao had to put the cold noodles into the boiling mutton soup and simmer for a while. , the soldiers found that the re-braised noodles were also delicious. Later, Chef Zhao devoted himself to research and put some salt and alkali in it to make it stronger and make the noodles have a unique flavor. Later, it became a popular flavor food. The writer Gu Qingsheng learned about this legend when he was eating braised noodles in Zhengzhou, so he suggested opening a braised noodle restaurant in Tokyo, Japan, so that Japanese people could eat braised noodles, and then told them that this braised noodles is the food that bears witness to Japan’s invasion of China. Giving the Japanese people a peace education is much stronger than the rhetoric of those "patriotic fighters" who bloodbathed Tokyo.
