Ramen Kameya taste is uniquely different

Ramen Kameya’s colorful street front is easy to recognize.

The ramen being served at Ramen Kameya, a ramen restaurant that opened little more than three months ago in Okinawa City, comes with a unique taste unlike the normal pork bone soup ramen.

The exact recipe, which is a concoction of a variety of ingredients, is manager Chohei Kameya’s closely guarded secret,  In any case, the taste of Kameya’s ramen is considerably lighter compared to that in most other ramen joints.

Ramen & sushi set

There are five kinds of ramen to choose from, including miso, salt, soy sauce, roast pork and tomato, the most popular being the tomato ramen.  Kameya says that “You can imagine easily tomato ramen being a bit like minestrone with noodles. Almost every first-time customer chooses the tomato ramen because it arouses their curiosity, and something that you don’t find in other shops. Often those customers then become regulars because our ramen is so tasty.”

In the beginning, Kameya had just one set-menu, a ramen and gyoza set, but they added a ramen and curry set, fried rice and gyoza set and ramen and sushi set. Besides the ramen and sushi set, all set menus cost ¥850. The ramen and sushi set costs ¥1,000.  Guests choose the flavor of ramen in those sets from Miso, salt and soy sauce. They can also choose to add slices of roasted pork or tomato at an additional ¥100 or ¥150 respectively.  All sets have volume to satisfy even the heartiest of appetites.

Not many restaurants serve ramen with sushi as a set, so it has become one of the attractions of
