History and origins

Founded in 1960, "Misen" is said to have originated from Ramen, which was made based on Tainan's tan tu men. The company was founded by Wang Lan, the wife of the Guo family from Taiwan, and after the war, business in Nagoya, which stopped by on the way from Osaka to Kobe and then to Tokyo went well and settled down.
In 1947, he changed his name to a Chinese restaurant called "Wanfu" and "Yamato Shokudo", and finally founded "Misen" in 1960. The origin of the name is that the Tang poet Li Bai was called "Shixian" or "Jiuxian", and it was called "Misen".
" Misen" was originally a Taiwanese restaurant. This Taiwanese Ramen was made around 1970 to remind his son Mingyu of the tanzai noodles he ate in Tainan, and the use of Chili Pepper in the local Red Onion became a different noodle dish and became popular.
Ground pork, leeks, green onions, bean sprouts, Garlic, etc. are spicy seasoned with Chili Pepper and placed on top of the Ramen, and the three elements of Chicken broth, pork, and spiciness are the charm of Taiwanese Ramen.
In addition to "Misen", many restaurants in Nagoya City have "Taiwan Ramen", which is widely loved as a Regional ramen. In fact, it is said that out of about 480 Ramen stores, 250 offer Taiwanese Ramen.
