Taguchi-san has been quoted saying that he wants to create the kind of ramen that you can eat every day.
Japanese ramen forums have awarded Koukaibou high ratings since its debut. Taguchi-san does all the cooking solo, and the shop has lots of loyal fans, so expect at least a short wait to get a seat. Less
