If you love curly noodle in miso soup, topped with typical ingredients such as pork, sweetcorn, butter, bean sprouts and garlic, go ahead with Sapporo-style ramen from Hokkaido.

- Wonderful onsen egg: It is a perfect side dish to complement your ramen. This traditional Japanese low temperature egg is beautifully done at Santouka – leaving the egg white like custard and the egg yolk creamy.
