Founded by Nakamura Eiri in 1999, Nakamuraya is a Ramen shop that sparked a huge Ramen boom in the Tokyo area, with long lines forming. It is said that the origins of the shop lie in his research into whether he could make instant Ramen using natural ingredients after eating it while studying in the US. While at the center of Japan's huge Ramen boom, he founded NAKAMURAYA NYC and is now based in the US, where he is active. His older brother also runs a Ramen shop called AFURI, which is famous not only in Japan but also overseas.
