History and origins

Akebono Shokudo, located in Noshiro City, Akita Prefecture, uses horse meat for both Ramen soup and the roasted pork. Founded in 1949, it is a rare Ramen shop run by an elderly woman, who is open only five days a week for lunch, but it has become somewhat famous in the neighborhood.
Horses have traditionally been eaten in Kitaakita, and there are records of horses being used as annual tax at the end of the Heian period. With many farm horses, horse meat was cheaper than beef or pork, and it was customary to eat horse sashimi on special occasions. At the end of the 17th century, a dock was built on the Mogami River, and it became a base for shipping to Osaka and Tokyo. This led to an increase in the number of horses used for transport, and horse breeding became more popular, further establishing the area. Returnees from Manchuria began opening Chinese noodle shops, which began to use horse meat, and horse Ramen was born.
