Sagamihara, Kanagawa, Japan｜Ichiran

There are good ramen shops in Japan and then there is Ichiran! Best ramen place in Japan. Haven't found another that is better than Ichiran. It is like the In-n-Out Burger in America keeping their menu simple, but having enough options to make it the way you want it. If you are looking for a quick meal as well, you won't be disappointed as they are super fast with minimal to no contact with the employees. You have to give it a try at least once if you've never tried it before.

Ichiran is very popular among foreign people. Well, it’s so delicious though. That’s why I really suggest you should visit and have sumptuous traditional ramen there.

Very good ramen dish and easy to figure out. Cash only so be prepared. Simple menu, but very tasty. I recommend you try the dashi level normal and up the spiciness/richness one level. If you like garlic, don't order extra until you sit. You can customize your garlic level on the sheet. Don't forget to get a 2nd order of noodles with the silver dish. If the store is busy, check in at the front and they'll give you a QR code receipt. Scan it and the web page will tell you your place in line. Once inside, there's a machine. Insert your money first and choose your options. Once done, press change and the machine gives you your change. Take the white tickets around the corner and the waitress will seat you. If you have two people, the wall between can be removed. Once seated, fill out your sheet with your desired customizations. Press the button and place your sheet near the window. A few minutes later, your food appears. Enjoy! If you want extras, there is a sheet at the table. Fill out the sheet, hit the button and give the cash to the server (extra pork, garlic, etc) Super simple, very tasty. I loved this place.
