Master Ryo Watanabe-san has loved cooking since he was a child and has over 20 years experience in the food industry. He previously worked at a fine dining restaurant in Ebisu specializing in California cuisine, but he always knew he wanted to open his own ramen shop. He basically taught himself how to make soup and noodles. While not fully recognized as an apprentice, he worked part time for two and a half years at Ramen Break Beats, Ramen Afro Beats and Ramen Jazzy Beats before going independent. The shop name Hisui is another word for the kingfisher bird. Only open for lunch, 11:30am-3pm. Nine seats. Since February 8th, 2025 @ramen_hisui Less
