Best Ramen
in the World!
The best ramen in the world is French (and that's according to Japanese people)
The best Japanese ramen go head to head at this unique culinary event. For the duration of the festival, the stands provide the establishment’s star recipe. This year, Kodawari ramen, a Parisian institution, was invited to the Tokyo Ramen Festa. And to everyone’s surprise, they came out on top as the best ramen. The Kodawari restaurant stand sold the most ramen during the festival and, faced with its unexpected success, finished serving earlier than the others. A first in the history of the Tokyo Ramen Festa. For the occasion, chef Jean-Baptiste Meusnier had created a gourmet recipe paying homage to the French region of Brittany: creamy tonkotsu mounted in espuma with lobster juice, lobster oil and Bordier butter imported from France, shio tare, grilled Iberian brisket with binchotan, lobster quenelle and Breton salicornia.
