History and origins

Tora Shokudo, synonymous with Shirakawa Ramen, was founded in 1969 by Toraji Takei, a maverick and genius at making Ramen. The taste and the curtain are preserved by the second generation, Mr. Kazuyuki Takei, who is honest, improves the taste of Shirakawa Ramen, and embraces many students. It is a very popular Ramen restaurant that boasts not only the category of Shirakawa Ramen but also the category of "Tora-kei", which is a generic name for the Ramen restaurants that were developed nationwide by the people who divided the goodwill of this Tora Shokudo restaurant.
Three or four kinds of chicken bones are used to give depth to the Ramen soup. It is important that the chicken bones are fresh. The homemade handmade noodles and the clean Shoyu soup are the distinguishing features of the restaurant.
Shirakawa Ramen can be said to have started around 1935 with a Ramen food stall called "Ichirokuken" and was sublimated Ramen by Toraji Takei, who trained at this Ramen food stall.
