Sapporo isn't just famous for beer. It's also the home of Ramen, a large bowl of thin noodles served in a soup, normally made from pork stock. While Ramen specialists can be found throughout Sapporo, and indeed Japan, there's one famous road in Sapporo which is packed with nothing else. Here we are in the appropriately named Ramen-Alley in Sapporo, a street jammed with countless tiny greasy-spoon cafes, serving Ramen and generally run by just one fella. It may not look like much, but the Ramen are tasty tasty tasty! Suffice it to say each cafe reckons it has the best Ramen, cooked from a secret stock handed down through generations. As such, a wander along Ramen-Alley will have the proprietors calling out for your custom, each claiming their noodles are the tastiest in town! This guys were certainly pretty good!
