Ramen restaurant • 10-25 Kamigofukumachi, Hakata Ward, Fukuoka, 812-0036, Japan
Hakata's long-established ramen shop, Ohakuken, boasts a history of over 60 years. This shop's charm lies in its nostalgic and original flavors.
Upon entering the shop, you will be surrounded by a retro atmosphere. The dim lighting and aged interior give off an atmosphere as if time has stopped. There, the ambiance of an old-fashioned dining room is deeply preserved.
The bowl served at Ohakuken is different from others. The tonkotsu soup has a light yet concentrated flavor. It is served with soft and smooth curly noodles, representing the traditional Hakata ramen.
Among the regulars, it is said that you should leave the firmness of the noodles to the shop. The perfect adjustment of the noodles in the simple Hakata ramen, combined with its unique arrangements, is truly a testament to its long-standing tradition.
What is surprising is its reasonable pricing. Being able to eat ramen for just one coin is unimaginable in modern Hakata. However, this reflects the conscientious attitude of Ohakuken.
The reviews may vary, but if you live nearby, there's no doubt that you would frequent this shop. Why not visit this long-established shop that reminds you of the good old days of Hakata?
