Daruma Ken, Sapporo　だるま軒




In 1940’s, after the world war 2 was over, there used to be many food-stalls lined along Sosei River, one of them was "Daruma-ken" owned by Senji Nishiyama. Ramen of his came to have good reputation especially for its good hand-made noodles, so he got to sell the noodles to other ramen stands. In those days they made 2 kinds of ramen soup, one was soy-sauce base, the other clear-soup base.
While the owner of "Aji no Sampei" restaurant, Morito Omiya, came to have a new recipe for making another soup of “miso” our traditional foodstuff around 1955.

At the same time, Takayuki Nishiyama, cousin of the Daruma-ken owner and in charge of making the noodles for the stall, succeeded in making the best noodles matching the miso soup-ramen finally.( He is the first president of Nishiyama Noodles Co.)

In this way, the best match of the curly chewy noodle and miso soup was made. Especially in the cold season this ramen keeping our body warm, good combination of taste and various ingredients, appealed to us all in Hokkaido.

博多だるま「福岡・博多」豚骨ラーメン
Hakata Daruma - Fukuoka Tonkotsu Ramen
Fukuoka Prefecture, Fukuoka, Chuo, Watanabedori, １丁目８−２５

- quote -
Hakata Daruma’s ramen is considered the representative ramen of Fukuoka. The soup has received historical recognition across the nation. The restaurant’s most popular ramen is topped with chashu, which is made from a rare cut of pork cheek. A usual order of ramen costs 700 yen with an additional fee of 150 yen for an extra serving of noodles to slurp up with any remaining soup. Free extras include sesame seeds and ginger to add a different taste.
The rich flavor of the soup
is achieved by boiling pork hind-legs over long periods of time. This makes it irresistible once Daruma’s distinctively thin noodles are added, a characteristic of the restaurant since its establishment in 1963. Again, Hakata Daruma provides customers with the option to choose how hard they’d like their noodles. If you’re a ramen first-timer, it’s suggested to go with the standard noodle texture and you can work out your preferences from there.
