一九ラーメン いち里 Itoshima

ねぎっこラーメン / Negikko Ramen / Ikkyū Ramen Ichiri — Itoshima, Fukuoka

Light and semi-sweet tonkotsu pork bone soup is cooked using a burner which runs on kerosene. Noodles are boiled in a large pot and served using a flat ‘hirazaru’ strainer. Topped with diced green negi, gochujang Korean chili paste and sesame seeds. Standard tonkotsu ramen, wontonmen and champon also on the menu. The house-made wontons are said to be served slightly firmer than at other Ikkyū branches.

This location of Ikkyū Ramen started off as a branch of the now closed Ikkyū Ramen Shusenji. Despite being the newest store within the group, the staff are related to the original Ikkyū founder and represent the Iwaii family. Around 20 seats. Open since 2004. Less
