Japanese ramen has become an important historical and cultural heritage of Japan, and can be seen everywhere in Japanese anime and Japanese dramas.

It can be said that the Japanese people’s love and admiration for ramen has reached a very crazy level, and has set off a strong Japanese ramen craze all over the world.

There are even many well-known gourmets rushing to publish books to review Japanese ramen. Chua Lam commented in detail on Sapporo ramen in "Chua Lam Talks Japan. Japanese Cuisine".

Whenever I see Japanese dramas where even girls who are usually very polite and image-conscious eat ramen loudly, I always feel very surprised. Maybe it’s like they say in the drama that ramen has to be eaten loudly.

It’s enjoyment!

The Japanese believe that the louder the sound when eating noodles, the better it tastes, and they think this is an appreciation for the chef's skill.

There is also a saying that the reason why Japanese people make such loud noises when eating noodles is because the soup when served with Japanese ramen is too hot, and sucking the noodles in a sizzling way can make the noodles less hot.

Japanese ramen was introduced to Japan from China.

Among the three major noodles in Japan, namely udon, ramen and soba, only soba is a traditional delicacy in Japan. However, Japanese ramen has been improved on the basis of Chinese ramen by combining its own eating habits and styles, and has gradually evolved in Japan.

It has become a unique dietary knowledge.

When I went to Japan last time, I specifically ate udon noodles, ramen and soba noodles to compare.

Sure enough, what I like most is the taste of ramen. The strong handmade ramen, paired with rich soup, and paired with seaweed, spinach, braised eggs and meat are simply delicious.

Before introducing Japanese ramen, I would like to promote this Marugame noodles. I think this udon tastes great, but it tastes a bit salty. The key is that it has 16 branches in Shanghai. Occasionally, you can cure yourself when passing by Shanghai.

The stomach is simply amazing.

This is a ramen shop located next to the Tokyo Skytree. It may not be particularly famous, but it was the first time I tasted authentic Japanese ramen. Every time I think about it, I have endless aftertaste.

I usually pay attention to information related to ramen. After summarizing, I found that Japanese ramen knowledge is too deep. What I have is only very superficial information, but it may be a bit confusing for ramen lovers anyway.

Japanese ramen can be divided into three major schools by region: Tokyo soy sauce ramen, Hokkaido miso ramen, and Kyushu tonkotsu ramen.

But there is also a theory that salt ramen is added to these three categories and divided into four major schools.

The following are some of the more famous ramen that I really want to eat. Even though the taste is very different, each has its own characteristics and is a good choice.

This is the ramen I want to try the most. Every time I think about the huge portion of ramen piled as high as Mount Fuji and covered with thick bean sprouts and sliced ??meat, I can’t help laughing.

Another major feature of this noodle shop is its low price. Even a super-large portion of ramen only costs 1,000 yen. If you challenge a big eater with this super-large portion of ramen, the scene will definitely be spectacular.

At Jiro Ramen shop, there is a custom that when asked by the shop owner if you want garlic, you have to answer with the amount of vegetables and fat.

For example, guests can answer according to their own taste: more vegetables, more garlic, more oil, and a strong taste.

If you order extra large ramen, when eating, you should first pick out the noodles from the bottom and place it on top of the vegetables to prevent the batter from falling off, and to allow the vegetables to absorb the soup of the noodles. This is the correct way to eat.

The biggest feature of Ichiran Ramen is the compartment design. Everyone can enjoy the delicious ramen in a separate compartment, which fully reflects the importance the Japanese attach to ramen.

Moreover, there are clothes hangers behind each seat, and there are also hanging bags next to the seats. After sorting these out, I can imagine the guests looking like Goro in "The Lonely Gourmet" who was sweating and smiling after eating. It was really enjoyable.

At the same time, this store also allows customers to choose their own taste, such as the softness and hardness of the noodles, the greasiness of the soup base, etc.

In addition, there is an independent drinking fountain in the lower left corner of each dining table. Each item is definitely a very considerate service.

Ippudo Ramen originated from Kyushu, Japan. Since its opening on October 16, 1985, it has opened more than 80 branches around the world. So far, it has opened more than a dozen branches in mainland China, including five branches in Shanghai alone.

Ippudo ramen is very popular throughout Japan and is famous for its rich pork bone broth.

The noodles are made from a secret flour recipe, and the ramen has a very tough texture.

Moreover, Ippudo has been providing ramen for All Nippon Airways (ANA) on major European and American routes since June 1, 2013, which is enough to show the influence of Ippudo.

It is worth mentioning that the Ramen Country Pass, which I found particularly interesting, felt like I had received the highest honor after eating it.

The Five Elements Ramen Shop looks fresher and brighter in terms of exterior decoration style, quite like a coffee shop.

It's not as exaggerated as other ramen shop signs, and the overall coffee-colored decoration in the store is also very modern and fashionable in a simple style. It feels more in line with the aesthetics of young people. It should be said that this is one of the reasons why I like this store.

The ramen in this shop is said to make people want to come back after eating it, and the appearance is also very tempting.
