Osaka Osakashi Nishi-ku Shinmachi 4-16-13

This is a restaurant where you can enjoy the old-fashioned taste of soy sauce flavored ramen noodles located about a three-minute walk from Nishi-Nagahori Station on the Sennichimae Subway Line / Nagahori Tsurumi-ryokuchi Line.

The owner uses only Kagoshima Black Pork for the pork slice on top of the ramen which gives more flavor and becomes more delicious the more you chew.

中華そば、塩そば、つけそばをシェアしました。中華そばの優しい味は絶対に食すべき！しかし、塩そばの美味しさが衝撃的過ぎて、自分好みは塩そば！透明感の中にしっかりとした味が付いていて、飽きずに最後まで食べれるラーメンです。つけそばを頼むと分かる、麺の美味さ！お店の中に製麺所があり、とてもコシのある味深い麺が決め手です！また行きたいと必ず思う、中毒性ラーメン！

Osaka Osakashi Chuou-ku Doutombori 1-7-3

KAMUKURA Sennichimae Branch located in Chuo Ward, Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture is a popular ramen noodle franchise and features a stylish exterior that is reminiscent of Izumotaisha Shrine. A western-style soy sauce flavor soup with plenty of vegetables has a unique taste which has been a secret since the establishment of the restaurant in 1986. It is a nostalgic and light taste and goes well with the ingredients that include white cabbage, pork and thinly sliced char siu. The thin noodles are served firm so as to be just the right firmness as you eat.

Amazing food, easy to order on the kiosk and super quick service. Fresh veggies and good spices. The only unfortunate part about it is that they would not let you do take away.

Located on the 10th floor of Lucua Osakain Umeda area, Dotonbori Kamukura is a ramen restaurant that has often been featured in the mass media because of its unusual broth.

The most popular dish is Ramen with sliced roastpork (small size) and soft-boiled seasoned egg. Certain varieties of ramen are available only during certain seasons, so customers are likely to discover new delights each time they visit the restaurant.

We went here a few years back and we are back, so it speaks for itself. Tasty ramen, fried chicken crispy outside but soft in the inside. Highly recommended.

"This restaurant is one of a chain of choice ramen restaurants started as a 30 square meter establishment in Himeji City, Hyogo Prefecture in 1991. This first, legendary establishment is said to have boasted lines of waiting customers 200 people long in spite of its small size. A special ""Shantan-shi"" soup sommelier stationed at each restaurant creates the broths used, and these broths in turn are each served with one of three varieties of noodles depending on the broth. The restaurant's chashu pork fillets, made by slow-stewing the choicest boned pork rib meat in a flavorful special sauce, are also exquisite."
