About Fujioka ramen

The local ramen “Fujioka Ramen” from Fujioka City, Gunma Prefecture is a cup that combines the food culture of the region with the commitment of the craftsmen. The reason behind its birth was the decline of the tile industry, which once flourished in Fujioka City, and ramen shopkeepers seeking new specialties formed the “Joshu Fujioka Ramen Association,” and it is said that it was born. Today, it has become a popular local ramen that is visited by many people from outside the city.

The biggest features of Fujioka ramen are hand-made extra thick curly noodles and a rich yet refreshing soy sauce-based soup. The soup is finished by slowly simmering chicken bones and pork bones, and while the flavor of soy sauce stands out, it is easy to drink. In addition to standard ingredients such as pork, bamboo shoots, and green onions, wakame seaweed and bean sprouts are also sometimes added, so you can enjoy different arrangements from store to store.
