Appearance
The exterior has the signature signage of the restaurant’s name on it, and the wall is a combination of wood and blocks that’s quite amuzing while staring at it.
Ambiance
There are about 22 seats in total in a cubicle style seating arrangement.
Ichiran’s dining style is quite unique to any other ramen shops here. Loving the idea of eating in a cubicle that is just like having your own private space where you can slurp both noodles and soup without worrying that the person next to you might get annoyed. lol!
This ramen shop is also one of the great representation of Japanese culture and popularity wise, its name has conquered other countries abroad.
Recommended Menu
“Ichiran’s Classic Tonkotsu Ramen”
This ramen bowl has white tonkotsu soup that is so satisfying and will surely leave you overly satisfied!
If I could visit the place again, I’ll make sure to have an empty stomach so I can eat a lot!
