Fukuoka Pref. Fukuokashihakataku Nakasu 5-3-2

This natural pork bone ramen shop opened in 1960 in Fukuoka, and it is the main location of a chain that is beloved nationwide. The soup is light on the unique pork bone taste and aroma, and it contains a secret sauce made from chili peppers that floats on the surface. Visitors can adjust the toughness of the noodles and the richness of the soup as they see fit. This location offers a “concentration counter” in which the seats are separated by walls, allowing customers to focus on enjoying the bowl of ramen in front of them. The atmosphere of the first floor is redolent of food stalls, and many original menu options are available. The closest station is Nakasu-Kawabata Station.

Ill admit that we had ramen almost everyday. I am not ashamed of that. Ichiran is one of the best. Very efficiently organised, you order and pay at a machine outside, then fill in a little form (in...

Fukuoka Pref. Fukuokashichuouku Daimyou 2-1-57

This is a tonkotsu ramen specialty shop in Tenjinnishi Street in the central district of Fukuoka City. One can concentrate on enjoying the taste of ramen in the individually partitioned seating. With the “kamadare” tonkotsu dish, only available in the Tenjinnishi Street shop, one can really savor the rich taste and a full aroma. In addition, the chashu pork here comes from the belly rather than the shoulder, giving it an extra rich flavor. It is a five-minute walk from Nishitetsu Tenjin Omuta Line’s Fukuoka (Tenjin) Station.

The Ichiran-Ramen is exactly how I like my Ramen:Savoury, rich, creamy broth, thin noodles and moreover, you can have spicy seasoning! We came here on a rainy, rather chilly day and it was the...

Fukuoka Fukuoka-shi Chuo-ku Nagahama 2-5-25

Fukuoka's Nagahama ramen, with its characteristics of thin noodles, doubled balls, and choice of noodle boiling method, originated at a restaurant called Gannaga. These features came about by chance, in order to quickly satisfy the workers at the fish market when the restaurant was first established, and in response to customer demand. These services have become soul food for Fukuoka citizens, and first-time customers are sometimes puzzled when they are asked how to boil noodles at a restaurant whose menu consists only of ramen.

A rough, local version of ramen. Goes well with the red ginger and sesame provided on the tables. Definitely not a refined dish, but quite satisfying with good flavor and texture balances.

And the shop’s proprietary soy sauce is made by special order from a soy sauce brewer.

The Ippudo ramen chain was founded in 1985. Ippudo puts great effort into just about every aspect of its ramen—in addition to the flavor, even the appearance and sound of the shop’s ramen is carefully designed; only the safest and choicest of ingredients are selected for use; and Ippudo also strives to prepare an optimum cooking environment for its chefs.
