Recommended bowl: Since 1954
One of the more legendary shops in the area and conveniently located right near Kurume station. The shop opened in 1954 and makes their tonkotsu soup using the 'yobimodoshi' method of adding the leftover soup at the end of each day to the stockpot for the next day. Here they use three stockpots with three different thicknesses of soup. They've been blending the stockpots day by day for over 50 years. The noodles are supplied by Koukarō Seimen, Raifukuken's go-to noodle-maker since 1954.
