About ShinShin Ramen — Tenjin

Slurp up Fukuoka's legendary tonkotsu ramen at ShinShin, where the creamy pork broth simmers for 12 hours and perfectly thin noodles soak up every drop. The rich, garlicky aroma hits you as you pull back the noren curtain, and the first sip of that velvety soup is pure umami bliss.

Pro Tips

  • Order the 'kaedama' (extra noodles) for ¥150 – they're served al dente.
  • Add pickled ginger and sesame seeds from the counter to cut the richness.
  • Sit at the counter to watch chefs hand-toss the noodles into the boiling pot.
  • Use the small ladle to scoop broth from the side, not the center, to avoid splashing.
  • Finish your bowl completely to see the hidden message on the bottom – it's a local tradition.
  • Carry cash – this stall doesn't accept credit cards or IC cards.
