This was a fantastic tour if you really want to sample the different styles of ramen. Our guide, Makayla was terrific! She had an IPad that illustrated the history of how ramen came to Japan and how it has evolved in just over the last century. She is knowledgeable and friendly and we enjoyed her company the whole time. Everything was delicious and wonderfully prepared. Thank you Makayla for making it a great and memorable food experience!

The Tour was everything you would expect it to be. Many interesting variations of Ramen, Sahori even provided a small presentation and was a great conversation partner. Would definitively recommend
