WHY IT'S A MESHI MAP PICK
Locals keep coming back. That is the real proof.
地元の人が、通い続ける。それが何よりの証明。
A rising star in Sapporo's ramen scene that built a devoted following almost immediately after opening in 2023.
2023年のオープン直後から口コミで評判が広まった、札幌の清湯ラーメンの新星。
The crystalline broth, made purely from free-range chicken and water with no artificial additives whatsoever, achieves a depth of clean umami that is remarkably rare in Japan.
地鶏と水だけで炊き上げた完全無化調のスープは国内でも稀有な完成度を誇り、透き通った旨味が心に響く。
The soy-based clear broth ramen is priced at just 980 yen, and the restaurant even offers a dedicated vegan option — thoughtful touches that set it apart in a city famous for rich, heavy broths.
清湯醤油980円という良心的な価格設定に加え、ベジラーメンにも対応するなど個性あふれる一軒だ。
Lines form before the doors open, drawn by the honest, unadorned beauty of the bowl.
開店直後から行列ができるほどの人気は、純粋な味への評価に他ならない。

What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

Opened in 2023 near Hokkaido University. The clear 'chintan' broth made from multiple varieties of local chicken and water alone is the star—beautifully translucent and packed with pure chicken umami. The chef's commitment to no MSG lets the natural flavor shine. Vegan ramen is also available, making it accessible to international visitors.

An impressive clear broth made from only chicken and water. Simple yet profound—the pure chicken umami shines through. A rising star that earned acclaim from the day it opened.
