…like a raoh-ing stone A sweet little commercial for the classic Nissin Raoh line of fresh-packed instant noodles! Not much else needs to be said except that I'd probably do the same thing. No, not really. I'm nowhere near that cool. Sadly. credit: YuKoracker

savannah does sapporo

No no, it's not what you think. Savannah (Is that her name, or where she's from? And what's with the Bollywood soundtrack?) is a curious traveler exploring Hokkaido. Here she takes on Sapporo's famed Ramen Yokocho, Ramen Saipachi, and a few other shops in the miso ramen capital of Japan, although she seems to prefer shio. "Smack ramen?" I'd like to try that...

ramen on the rocks

Number 26 in this televised "Really Tasty Ramen Best 30" countdown features Tokyo's Ramen Tetsu, which does a marrow-rich tsukemen enlivened by a burning hot stone. After slurping up their noodles, customers request the stone and drop it into the remaining broth, which reheats the liquid to scalding, frothy satisfaction!

the apathetic ramen chef

Norihiko-san allegedly serves Japan's "worst" bowl of ramen at his shop, Hikoryu! Watching this, I felt bad at first. But I came to suspect it's a work, as his skillfully tossed cabbage actually falls back into the wok. If I served Japan's worst ramen, I'd be totally proud of it. Kind of like being the skinny, no-named pro-wrestler that always loses to bigger, fatter guys! Everybody loves you!

nagabuchi’s noodles

Tsuyoshi Nagabuchi is arguably the Bruce Springsteen of Japan, and Kagoshima-city's Kainoya was where he slurped as a youth. In this heartwarming clip, Kainoya's proprietor reminisces about the prodigal rocker's return to the ramen shop of his childhood!
