Seven Gods of Good Luck Sano ramen dorei 佐野ラーメン土鈴 clay bell of a Ramen noodle soup shop in Sano - quote - The city of ramen noodles, the classic dish for everyone! Home to one of Japan’s most famous local ramen noodles, Sano-city is in the south of Tochigi. Sano Ramen is made with water of the finest quality listed in the 100 best spring waters in Japan, and wheat especially suited for noodle-making. Beaten by a green bamboo stem, these noodles are aerated for good thermal conductivity. As a result, they are cooked in a second and maintain a chewy but smooth texture. The clear broth, having a taste of soy sauce and a rich flavour, is distinctive and never boring for its simplicity. Sano Ramen has admirers of all ages. - source : travel.tochigiji.or.jp... - . hakoniwa gangu 箱庭玩具 toys for a landscape garden .
