What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

Established in 1949, this legendary ramen shop is hidden in a residential area near Noo Station with almost no signage - it looks just like a private house. Yet long lines form even on weekday lunches. The signature soy ramen uses a unique pork bone and seafood broth sealed with a layer of lard, creating a flavor that is almost impossible to find elsewhere. Menu: ramen and chashu ramen only.

Comments include: 'Incredible that there is a line at a place that looks like a private house with no sign', 'I keep coming back for the nostalgic taste', 'The layer of lard keeps the soup piping hot until the last bite', 'The most popular of the three major ramen shops in Noo'.
