Honke Daiichi Asahi Takabashi Honten / 本家第一旭たかばし本店

The restaurant has been open since 1947, and it is the most popular Ramen shop in Kyoto. It offers Showa’s (post-war) nostalgic atmosphere. The store is open from 05:00 until 02:00 in the morning, it is better to avoid lunchtime if you don’t want to wait too much. They use only high-quality local products. They offer Chutaikan pork (female over 120 kg), without much fat, which produces a very aromatic and light soup. They make noodles by hand with select mixtures of flour, salt, and water. T ... hey use green Kujo onions, local Fushimi Shoyu (famous for its excellent water), and Kyoto bean sprouts, crispy and fresh. We recommend their special Ramen for ¥650, with an extra portion for ¥850 or a mini portion for only ¥500. The shop is located less than five minutes from Kyoto Central Station.
