A beloved old-school Chinese diner 3 minutes from Oita Station North Exit. The signature 'Tori Negi Ramen' (¥650) features a gentle clear chicken broth with crispy chicken pieces and julienned green onion — 'a flavor that soaks into your bones.' A rare keeper of chicken-broth Chinese noodle soup in pork-bone-dominant Oita. 'Been here since I was a kid' voices confirm cross-generational support. 249 Tabelog reviews and 6,410 saves prove deep local popularity.
