Ramen restaurant • 1 Chome-1 Hakata Ekimae, Hakata Ward, Fukuoka, 812-0012, Japan
Nama Dai Ramen Tei, located in the underground shopping area of Hakata Station. This long-standing ramen shop boasts a traditional tonkotsu ramen. The aroma of tonkotsu drifting in the store naturally arouses your appetite.
You can taste authentic Hakata ramen with straight, thin noodles and rich tonkotsu soup. Despite its simplicity, you can enjoy genuine Hakata ramen. The ramen set with plenty of ingredients is cost-effective. The tenderness of the chashu (roast pork) and the delicate balance of the half-boiled egg reflect the attention to detail.
You can enjoy a change in flavor by using the takana and pickled ginger on the table. Adding this homemade condiment to the ramen or fried rice instantly enhances the flavor. The retro atmosphere, where you can enjoy the nostalgic scent of the Showa era, is also one of the charms of this shop.
Due to its popularity, it can get crowded, especially during lunchtime. The 4-person tables are typically for sharing with other customers without asking, so be mindful of that. Nonetheless, it is certain that you can enjoy reasonably priced and delicious ramen. If you come to Hakata, this is definitely a must-visit famous store.
