It opened in 1954, it’s an old and popular ramen restaurant. There are 2 stores in Nagahama, the ramen from this little restaurant is known as the “Nagahama’s Ramen.” When enter the house, the ramen will provide to you without order automatically. It is because they only provide the traditional Hakata’s ramen. However, you can choose the texture of the ramen. They provide 4 different textures: raw (Jap: na-ma), hard (Jap: Ka-ta), normal (Jap: na-mi), and soft (Jap: ya-wa). The hardness of the ramen will influence the quantity of the oil of the ramen. The raw noodles are the less oily. But if you want to have raw ramen, but a little bit oil, such as sesame oil, on it. Then you have to order. The hardness of ramen and the quantity of oil become the characteristics of this ramen house.
