History and origins

Founded in 1960, Ichiran, with its base in Fukuoka Prefecture and branches nationwide, is where the Nakaharas developed their legendary flavor. Originally from Fukuoka, this tonkotsu Ramen is a hugely popular Ramen restaurant with passionate fans both in Japan and overseas, and is said to have its roots in Hourin. The legendary red secret sauce topping the soup is said to have originated at Hourin. A unique blend of dozens of Chili Pepper, Aging for days, creates a truly one-of-a-kind flavor. Surprisingly, the "100% tonkotsu-free Ramen" broth is a natural tonkotsu broth made without pork, using a variety of chicken-based ingredients to slowly extract Umami. No seasonings are used. The results of years of research are the driving force behind Ichiran 's popularity.
