INFO

Ramen is a very popular type of Japanese noodles. Although ramen is a relative newcomer to Japanese cuisine, it was reportedly eaten in the late 17th century, but it was only during the Meiji period that the dish became widely known.

Orginating from Kyushu Japan, Ajisen Ramen is famous for its white broth, made from the slow-cooking of tender pork ribs. First opened in 1968, Ajisen Ramen now has over 300 branches worldwide. With branches in China, Singapore, USA, Philippines, Thailand, Australia, Indonesia and Canada, Ajisen's emphasis on simple, hygienic, convenient, tasty and healthy noodles, Ajisen Ramen redefines the dining experience.

We are very excited with the opening of Ajisen in Canada and invite you to experience the taste of Ajisen in Canada today!

Bowls Of Ajisen

Throughout the years, Ajisen Ramen has used many different bowls for its ramen.  Displayed on the walls of the Ajisen Ramen shops you will find the collection of bowls used throughout the years.

In Japan, two calendar systems are used:  1) The Western Common Era and 2) The Japanese Era Name systems.  While we are all familiar with the first as it is the one we refer to daily, the second system is based on the reign of the current emperor.  Underneath each bowl you will find tags indicating when the particular bowl was used with reference to the Japanese Era Name.  The first two characters refer to the emperor that was in reign and the number corresponds with the year of reign.  Ajisen Ramen has used over 16 different bowls over the years. 

Ramen is best served hot and it is crucial that broth is hot.  Each bowl at Ajisen Ramen is kept warm before the ramen is even cooked to ensure that when the ramen and broth is served that no heat is lost to a cold bowl.  This is just one example of the many details that Ajisen Ramen pays attention to serve you the best Japanese ramen.
