What to expect
Kumamoto City, located in central Kyushu, is a hidden gem in Japan’s rich ramen landscape. Known for its unique take on tonkotsu ramen, Kumamoto has developed a distinct style that balances the creamy richness of pork bone broth with a milder, more refined flavor. What truly sets it apart is the use of black garlic oil (ma-yu) and roasted garlic chips, which add depth and aroma without overpowering the dish. With its thicker noodles and comforting, approachable taste, Kumamoto ramen reflects the city’s warm, down-to-earth character and is a must-try for any ramen lover exploring Japan’s regional flavors.
