Tokyo Ramen Tour on TOKYO EYE

By Jib-kun

Tokyo is full of great things to eat: sushi, tempura, shabu-shabu. But nothing is more delicious than ramen!  Chinese noodles imported to Japan but given a domestic flavor that makes them a truly Japanese dish.  Below you see only one of the many interesting places they visited the "Ramen Museum" in Kanagawa.  It was a collection of the best ramen shops from across Japan!
