Hatanaka Ramen

Hatanaka Ramen serves Japanese-style ramen in an alley in Itaewon, Seoul. Shoyu ramen is the main item, alongside Hanwoo daechang (beef large intestine) ramen and pork jowl chashu. The broth is a niboshi style mixed with fish stock, carries a mild spiciness, and arrives very hot. Seasoning runs on the strong side, and there are issues with kitchen cleanliness and flies.
