Ramen curtain

Two famous Kitakata ramen restaurants recommended by Kitakata City natives!

Kitakata Ramen is one of Japan's three major ramen .
Not only locals are impressed by the thick, curly noodles and refreshing soy sauce soup, but many people all over Japan.

Sakauchi Shokudo

Sakauchi Shokudo, which has many fans not only in Fukushima Prefecture but also all over Japan .
A distinctive feature of Sakauchi Restaurant is its classic menu item, "niku soba .

The "niku soba" is covered in bowls with so much char siu that it looks like it's overflowing with char siu, giving off an overwhelming presence.

To be honest, even if you're unsure whether you can eat it all, the salty soup is very light, making it a relatively easy dish to eat. The noodles are made with thick, curly noodles, so the soup is mixed in with the noodles, making them twice as delicious.

If you're eating it for the first time, you'll be sure to be surprised, "Is Kitakata ramen so delicious?"

Why not try enjoying the "niku soba" from Sakauchi Shokudo, which is not only flying to Kitakata, but also in Japan and around the world?

Genraiken

Genraiken, the original Kitakata .

This restaurant was opened by the grandfather Kinsei, who came to Japan from China during the Taisho period, and originated in Kitakata ramen .

What makes this restaurant special is its simple "handmade ramen" that has been made using the same methods used in the past.

Genraiken's soup is soy sauce soup made from pork bones, chicken bones, niposhi, kelp, vegetables, etc., and the noodles are made from homemade flat noodles. The soup has not changed at all since the Taisho era, and the soup is full of flavor that gives a sense of the history of Kitakata ramen.

Although its recognition is slightly lower than that of Sakauchi Shokudo, mentioned earlier, I personally recommend it as a long-established establishment that continues to be loved by the local area. This ramen is perfect for those who want to experience the history of Kitakata ramen.
