Experience Details
With countless possible combinations of noodles, broth, and toppings, it's hard to even begin to scratch the surface when it comes to ramen in Japan, but Abram Plaut, best known for his online alias Ramen Beast, boasts an out-of-the-ordinary ramen knowledge. Traversing the country in search of unique flavors and aromas, he has washed down over 3,000 ramen meals along the way, enjoying around 300 bowls on average in a given year.
In this tour, ramen expert, critic, and researcher Abram joins forces with local ramen expert Hiroshi, who, hailing from the ramen city of Kitakata, boasts an equally impressive ramen background, to create a dream tour for the ramen lover: a personalized exploration of Tokyo that includes two stops at ramen restaurants tailored to your preferences and requests. Either Abram or Hiyoshi will be the tour guide for the experience, depending on the day.
Looking for a delicious bowl of creamy tonkotsu, or perhaps you'd like to try the famous Sapporo ramen without leaving Japan’s capital? Just inform your preferences upon booking, and your guide will draw from their extensive experience to find the right place for you.
