History and origins

"Kasaoka Ramen" is a Shoyu-flavored Ramen topped with chicken "kashiwa char siu." The area around Kasaoka is the largest poultry farm.
The poultry industry was thriving, with around 300 farms said to have been there, and old chickens that had stopped laying eggs were readily available. Also, with a background of familiar noodle culture, it is said that Kasaoka Ramen was born as a casual meal for the locals.
Founded in 1958, "Chuka Soba Sakamoto" is the oldest Ramen shop still standing, and uses only chicken for its Ramen soup. It is a direct descendant of "Saito," a Ramen shop that was founded before the war and is said to be the originator of "Kasaoka Ramen."
It is said that there were over 10 Ramen restaurants in Kasaoka in the 1940s, and Ramen was so popular that people would get off the train just to eat Kasaoka's Chinese noodles.
