About the shop
A Hakata tonkotsu specialist opened in 2019 in front of Hakata Station. Its broth concentrates the pork-bone flavour while keeping the gaminess down, with a rich 'Noko tonkotsu' and a lighter 'Yatai tonkotsu' as the two pillars. It is a sister shop of Genryu, a foamy-ramen shop in Hyogo.
