Ramen

Country Of Origin: Japan 🇯🇵

Ramen is a flavorful dish made by cooking the miso base, broth, and vegetables in a wok. The concoction is then usually topped with bean sprouts, chopped pork, garlic, sweet corn, and (sometimes) local seafood such as crabs, scallops, and squid.

History: The dish was invented in 1955 in Sapporo, Japan, when a customer in a noodle house asked the chef to put noodles in his pork and miso soup. In the 1960s, miso ramen's popularity skyrocketed, and Sapporo still remains a paradise for ramen lovers, taking pride in its Ramen Alley, with over a dozen ramen shops scattered through the street.

Fun Fact: There is a ramen museum in Japan for hardcore ramen lovers. The Shin-Yokohama Ramen Museum is the world’s first food-themed amusement park. The park has 9 ramen eateries and ramen-related shops for tourists to enjoy.
