📖 Details

Founded in 1971, "Tenkaippin" started as a noodle stall and has now grown into a chain of ramen shops with over 200 locations across Japan. Located in the highly competitive ramen district of Kyoto, known as Ichijoji, it stands out among many popular ramen shops and is considered a sacred place for fans of Tenkaippin. The charm of Tenkaippin lies in its secret rich broth, developed by the founder over four years, which has been beloved by customers for 50 years. The broth is made by simmering chicken bones with dozens of vegetables and other ingredients, resulting in a rich yet refreshing flavor. You must visit the main store to experience this unique and addictive broth. The menu offers a variety of flavors, including the "rich broth," as well as the "refreshing broth," which combines layers of texture and umami, and the classic "yatai flavor," reminiscent of its early days. The main store also offers exclusive dishes worth trying, such as "Gyukotsu Ramen," featuring beef tendon and konjac that have been simmered for a long time, and the "Buta Ju Set Meal," which includes tender pork loin coated in sauce.
