What other travelers are saying about Asahikawa Ramen Village
I really wanted to like what was available, I picked the store with the longest line. The miso ramen was unremarkable, more
Garlicky and mildly spicy than having a strong miso flavour. The soup was oily rather than well emulsified. Points for being generous but it was not worth the calories.
Such a cool little village of local Ramen shops, with 8 different brands in one location you get to pick and choose whatever your heart tells you! SUBSCRIBE to Junk Food Japan YouTube channel to see how good it really is!
In Ramen Village, numerous ramen restaurants beckon, but during lunch, most were fully occupied. Fortunately, we secured a table at one of them. The taste was average, not compelling enough to justify a journey solely for ramen.
I ate in one of their stores... It was just not bad.. personally for me, I have tried other stores in the vicinity that also taste better than here.
It is a nice visit to see the village and there is surrounding clothes store and grocery shopping around here.
Fun little ramen place but you can also get similar ones in town. A good trip if you went to the sake museum before (or after) as it’s in the same part of town. The ramen wasn’t particularly better or more unique to others you can find close to the station.
Asahikawa ramen is distinguished by its rich, soy sauce-based broth, which is typically mixed with pork, chicken, and sometimes seafood to create a complex and flavorful soup. Another characteristic feature is the layer of oil on top of the broth, which helps retain its warmth, making it especially enjoyable in Hokkaido's cold climate. The noodles used are usually thin and curly.
While traditional Asahikawa ramen is meat-based, some shops within the village may offer vegetarian or vegan options. However, these options might not always be available, so it is recommended to inquire directly with the individual shops or look for information online before visiting.
Yes, Asahikawa Ramen Village is a family-friendly destination. The casual dining atmosphere and the universal appeal of ramen make it a great place for visitors of all ages, including children.
