You must eat tonkotsu ramen when you come to Fukuoka. ShinShin should be considered one of the top popular players. There are also many branches in Fukuoka. The one we ate today is the one located in the ramen street on the second floor of Hakata Station.

When you come in from Chikushi Exit, turn right and go up the stairs to the second floor and you will see Ramen Street. There are 12 ramen shops in total, so don’t worry about not being able to find what you want to eat; we arrived around 5:30 on Sunday evening, and some shops had no queues at all. , but by visual inspection, there are more than 20 customers queuing outside ShinShin, so it is indeed famous.

However, the entry speed is actually quite fast. It should only take about 10 minutes to wait for our turn to be seated, and the table turnover rate is quite fast. After ordering, the ramen was delivered in less than 5 minutes, which is very efficient.

There are many items sold here. In addition to ramen, there are also fried noodles, fried rice, dumplings, and various side dishes. However, we were not very hungry at that time, so we just ordered a bowl of the most basic ramen.

Hakata ShiShin Ramen ¥820
The noodles used are extremely fine noodles, so thin that they look a bit like Taiwanese noodles, but they are not too soft and still maintain a chewy texture. Personally, I think this noodle is quite amazing! (ps ShinShin’s noodles cannot be selected in thickness, softness or hardness, they are fixed)
The soup is quite rich and delicious, but after drinking it, I feel a little salty, which makes me want to drink ice water.
There are 2 slices of pork barbecued pork in the ramen, both lean and fat. The thickness is moderate, not thin but not meat-like. However, I don’t like this pork barbecued pork very much. I think the pig flavor is a bit obvious, and it is not very tender and thin. The meat is on the dry side

Overall, ShinShin is affordable. This bowl of ramen costs only NT$180. The noodles themselves are delicious, but other parts of the performance I personally think are 70 points. It’s passable but not something I would recommend to my friends who must eat in Fukuoka. Ramen shop
