喜多方ラーメン坂内メニュー Kitakata Ramen Bannai Menu

Kitakata Cold Ramen 和風冷やしラーメン 820 yen
is regular menu.

They offer Chinese Style Cold Ramen 中華風冷やしラーメン 880 yen is available from May to September.

Generally, this is called “Hiyashi-chuka” at a ramen shop, and it is type of cold ramen. A slightly sour, cold sauce is used instead of ramen broth. Eating cold noodles with shredded cucumber and pickled ginger is refreshing, especially on a hot summer day.

Salt Ramen with Spices 香ばし塩ラーメン 890 yen

KITAKATA Ramen ☆Recommended

KITAKATA Ramen 720 yen including tax
喜多方ラーメン
This is their classic style ramen and highly recommended.

I sometimes visit this ramen chain!
It is worth trying!

Pork Broth, Soy Sauce Base Soup, 5-Sliced Char-siu Pork Seasoned Bamboo Shoot, Chopped Green Onion

This Kitakata ramen originated at a restaurant named, “Bannai Shokudo 坂内食堂”, which is still located in Kitakata 喜多方 City in Fukushima 福島 prefecture, Japan.

It is a chain shop which operates under a name: “KITAKATA RAMEN BANNAI 喜多方ラーメン坂内”.

This ramen shop's char-siu pork is delicious!
Juicy and tender!

AJITAMA Ramen

AJITAMA Ramen 840 yen
味玉ラーメン
It is topped with seasoned boiled egg.

Char-siu Pork Ramen

喜多方ラーメン坂内 Kitakata Ramen Bannai 焼豚 Chashu

Char-siu Ramen 970 yen
焼豚ラーメン

Do you like char-siu?
Are you very hungry?
If so, this is the option for you. So many slices of char-siu are layered over the noodles that you can't see inside the bowl; it is completely covered in char-siu. If you are not particularly hungry, you may grow tired of eating char-siu.

About 13 sliced of Char-siu pork are topped on the ramen.

Specialty of Kitakata Style Ramen

The broth appears to be translucent and has a very smooth, light flavor. This broth is made in a very traditional Japanese style. The special curly noodles do a good job of holding the flavor of the broth. Another highlight of this shop is the char-siu, which is particularly tender and delicious.

KITAKATA Ramen - Miso

KITAKATA Ramen - Miso 720＋60＝780 yen
喜多方ラーメン味噌味

If you pay 60 yen more, you can switch out the broth to Miso or Shio (Salt) instead of a soy based one.

However, the menu does not have any pictures of the Shio or Miso ramens. The fact you can change the type of broth is only written in small print in the corner.

It may be that some customers don't know that these broths are an option.

To be honest, I much prefer their soy sauce soup to miso, because their miso flavor is not so unique.

If you like miso ramen, I recommend these 2 shops in Tokyo. ↓

The Thickest Ramen Noodles at a Ramen Shop JONNY-NO-MISO ジョニーの味噌 in Tokyo

Specialty: Here is a ramen shop. Their specialty is tasty miso flavor broth and very thick and chewy noodles. I think that the ramen noodles are one of the thickest in Japan. They use MSG-free miso. You should try this very unique ramen.

They offer several kinds of miso ramen. There are many types of ramen in Japan. If your favorite type is miso ramen, Do-Miso is worth trying.

Curly thick noodles

Kitakata Cold Ramen

Kitakata Cold Ramen 820 yen
和風冷やしラーメン
It is used chilled ramen broth.

Some ice cubes are in it.

I prefer classic and warmed type Kitakata Ramen to Kitakata Cold Ramen, because warmed and softer Char-siu with warmed broth tastes much better than Cold Ramen.
