◆—Information of regional Ramen ——–◆

Hello everyone! Thank you very much for your reading regularly!
It’s good to travel to Japan and experience Japanese local and special ramen, “ご当地[gotochi]” ramen!
Have you ever tried the regional and special ramen?
Are you interested in Japanese ramen tours?
“Ramen” came from China and first became well-known as Nankin or Shina Soba at China town in port cities, such as Kobe and Yokohama in Meiji period. Japanese ramen culture has continued evolving since then. Miso ramen was created at Sapporo city in Hokkaido made from Japanese rice miso. Each ramen has a different style of noodle and soup stock “dashi” at each ramen shop but I will introduce some features of regional ramen in Japan from the north to the south little by little.
