Ganso Nagahamaya

Ganso Nagahamaya is a ramen restaurant in Fukuoka that serves tonkotsu ramen with ultra-thin noodles in a light pork bone broth. The bowl comes topped with green onions and sliced roasted pork.

The restaurant opened in 1952 near Hakata Fishing Port to serve port workers efficiently. Its founders developed quick-cooking thin noodles as a faster way to feed workers during their breaks.

The restaurant uses a meal ticket vending machine for ordering, which shapes how diners quickly choose their meal in a straightforward way. This system reflects how the place has integrated efficiency into its everyday dining experience.

The restaurant sits about 10 minutes walk from Akasaka Station, making it easy to reach on foot. It opens early in the morning and stays open late into the night, except during its annual closure period.

The restaurant originated the kaedama system, which lets customers order extra noodle servings to add to their remaining broth. This practice gives diners a way to extend their meal and use the leftover soup.
