The Style of Ramen Varies!!

What's up my friends!!
Hope you are having wonderful Blue Monday!! haha

The last weekend, I went to Kagoshima for my private stuff.
Do you know where Kagoshima is?
Kagoshima is southern part of Japan, and it is part of Kyushu.


*Green: Kagoshima
**Blue: Tokyo and Osaka

It is about 1.5 hours flight from Tokyo and 1 hours from Osaka.
There are lots of relaxing spots such as hot spring spa, foods, and alcohol and so on.
As you can see the picture below, Sakurajima is one of the symbol in Kagoshima. It is big and still erupt!!! lol

Sakurajima is living volcano!!

I want to introduce those things but I just focus on Ramen in Kagoshima.

Do you know there are some types of Ramen in Japan: Tonkotsu, Shio (salty soup base), and Shoyu(soysauce base)

My favorite Kagoshima Ramen

As I said, Kagoshima is the part of Kyushu, and Kyushu is famous for Tonkotsu ramen especially Fukuoka, which is also the part of Kyushu and urban city.
So, the soup of Kagoshima ramen is based on Tonkotsu. However, even though Kagoshima Ramen use Tonkotsu soup, it is not same as Fukuoka one.
What is the difference then?
1. Kagoshima ramen has lots of sprouts or other vegetable. The texture of sprount is one of the feature of it.

2. The noodle is not that thin like Fukuoka one.
I am not saying it is thick, but It is different from Fukuoka one's noodle.

3. The char siu is berkshire pig which is one of the icon of Kagoshima. This is the best feature between Kagoshima ramen and other one. In my opinion, what's good and bad about ramen is soup and char siu. This char siu hardly can see in Tokyo. Seriously, it is yummy!!!


I just line up some differences, but of course you need to taste Kagoshima ramen first without saying anything!! haha

Kagoshima has lots of attractiveness. Japan is not only Tokyo or Kyoto. Please visit Kyushu area and discover the "cool" spots in Japan!!

What do you think? :)
