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.

Fukuoka Pref. Fukuokashichuouku Watanabedori 1-8-251F

Daruma’s noodles are made with a unique flour blend. The shop’s rich and striking broth has been made in the same hagama pot since 1963. It uses only the choicest and safe pork and seafoods. And the shop’s proprietary soy sauce is made by special order from a soy sauce brewer. Whichever item on the shop’s menu you choose, the flavor will tell you about the master skills which went into making it. Customers also love its selection of noodles, for the ultra thick to the ultra thin. A five-minute walk from Watanabe-dori Station.

Fukuoka Pref. Fukuokashichuouku Daimyou 1-13-14

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. The Ganso Shiromaru Motoaji (Shiromaru Classic) and Ganso Akamaru Motoaji (Akamaru Modern) ramens are only available at the Daimyo location. An eight-minute walk from Fukuoka (Tenjin) Station on the Nishitetsu Tenjin Omuta Line.

In our three day stay in Fukuoka, we were told to absolutely try some Hakata ramen. We are huge lovers of ramen, what more could be done to improve upon such a perfect dish? Ippudo showed us the...

Fukuoka Fukuoka-shi Sawara-ku Taguma 2-24-2

Since its establishment in 1975 (Showa 50), this Fukuoka City ramen restaurant has consistently received high praise. 1994 (Heisei 6), the restaurant moved to its current location and is now run by the third generation, Shinichiro Sakaki. The distinctive soup is made from pork skull bones, and is a blend of soup cooked and aged the day before and prepared the same day, giving it a rich and sharp taste. It is also characterized by the use of medium-thin noodles and large pieces of chashu pork. It is worth a visit if you like tonkotsu ramen.

福岡歯科大学の北側の通りを東に少し進んだ場所にある。有名なラーメン屋さんで、行列がよくできている。２０名は入れないような広くない店ですが、店の外には、順番待ちの椅子が２０名分ほど用意されています。

Fukuoka Pref. Kurumeshi Torihokamachi 11-8

This is the main store of Taiho Ramen, which opened in 1951. Its tonkotsu soup has stewed for half a century and the traditional “yobimodoshi soup” was created here. The chashu pork, prepared from the leg or rib depending on the menu, attest to the care taken by the cooks. It is around eight minutes on foot from Nishitetsu Kurume Station.

One of the oldest Tonkotsu Ramen restaurant. Depending on your experience of Tokontsu ramen, some people may not tolerate this smell. Locals love the flavor and the taste of this ramen.

Fukuoka Pref. Fukuokashichuouku Daimyou 2-6-4

A ramen restaurant located in Chuo Ward, Fukuoka City. The restaurant is notable for its use of thin, flat noodles similar to those used in Inaniwa udon. The restaurant's tonkotsu pork bone broth is made with a relatively large ratio of soy sauce, giving it a flavor that is milder than usual and which has been a favorite of locals for years. During lunchtime, the restaurant offers a ramen set meal which includes a half sized serving of fried rice.

After 2:30 in the afternoon, its hard to find good things to eat in Japan until dinner time. This place was serving, and we wanted Fukuoka-style ramen, so in we went. The gyoza are small, nice and...

In addition to tonkotsu pork bone ramen, the restaurant also serves chanpon noodles and a full array of other Chinese and Chinese-style dishes. Also popular are the restaurant's gyoza pot stickers, made without garlic and a signature item since the days when the establishment was merely a street stall. These gyoza go great with the restaurant's homemade rayu chili oil.
