What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

Opened September 2021. The specialty is a crystal-clear chicken broth using premium local Sanada-maru chicken, designed to taste as if a thousand chickens went into its depth. So popular it often closes early when ingredients run out — one of the most-queued ramen shops in Nagano. Just 9 counter seats, yet draws customers from across Shinshu.

Reviews highlight 'the broth is strikingly clear, you can see the bottom of the bowl,' 'three types of chashu and wontons are all perfect,' and 'I can't believe this level of ramen exists in Nagano.' Yahoo Maps 4.31. Queues form even on weekdays — watch for early sell-out.
