When you come to Japan, be sure to try it. “KIPPOSHI.”

Even I, as a Japanese person, rarely see blue ramen.

KIPPOSHI

The store was previously located in Shibuya, but it has since moved to the Hamamatsucho area of Tokyo.

Besides blue ramen with sea bream, scallops, and ginger, there are colorful ramen dishes in various flavors.

The restaurant isn’t very spacious, seating only about five or six people.

Instead of the standard ticket-purchasing style common in Japan, you order directly from the owner by looking at the menu at your seat.

The shop’s atmosphere features a clean, white-based interior.
It seems like the shop is run by just the owner alone, with no other staff in sight. And the counter is mysteriously high—be sure to raise your hands high when receiving your ramen.

This is very important. Payment is cash only. Credit cards and electronic money cannot be used.

Apparently, after looking into it, this ramen shop seems to be quite rare. Since it’s not a chain, it’s a special ramen known only to those in the know.

The blue paitan ramen I had was 1,500 yen—
a bit pricey, I guess.

Personally, I’d like to try all kinds of ramen, including blue ramen.
