Ignite your Taste Buds with Smoky Ramen Bliss

Upon arrival, the staff will greet you with a friendly Irasshaimase. Select your choice of Hokkaido ramen bowls and relish miso-based broth, chewy wheat noodles, tender pork slices, bamboo shoots, corn, and green onions. Slurping the noodles aerates the broth and serves as a nod of appreciation to the chef, so ensure to indulge as you like.

Delight in the Art of Pork Broth Mastery

On your next stop, grab a bowl of Tonkotsu ramen, a rich and velvety broth created by simmering pork bones for hours. The dish is paired with thin, springy noodles cooked to al dente perfection and topped with tender chashu slices, bamboo shoots, garlic, and scallions, adding a satisfying crunch to the dish.

Learn about the origin of ramen from your expert local host and explore the intricacies of its preparation techniques through interactive displays. Round off your ramen binge by digging into a bowl of spicy curry ramen, a blend of sliced chicken, pork, and beef with veggies and seaweed.
