    It is amazing to have someone like Frank to bring us and share the best ramens around Japan.

    Kita Kyushu is where my dad was born. I have never been down that far in my trips to Japan. Cool to see it! Thanks Frank!

      You have to go visit now! Your ramen roots 😊

    Uniqlo Frank, it’s been a life saver when the weather changes suddenly.

    • @5AMRamen
      @5AMRamen  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Absolutely! When in a pinch, Uniqlo to the rescue 😊

    Ah, I know the feeling of having a store you love suddenly close without warning. I think it was about 10 years since I left Iwakuni after being stationed there for 2 years, where I was finally able to visit Iwakuni again recently for my current job just to find many of my favorite stores closed over the years. A yakitori izakaya, coffee shop, my favorite Mexican food (Mike's Tex Mex), and yes, also not one but TWO ramen shops closed or changed owners and just wasn't the same.
    And I think someone else mentioned in the comments already, but Uniqlo definitely is a lifesaver if you need spare clothes in a pinch and you're built larger than your average Japanese. Saved me from embarrassment more than once after getting food/coffee stains before a big work or social meeting lol.

      Thanks for watching and sharing some stories too! Always tough to see those favorite places disappear, but I'm sure there was a smile on your face just thinking about the memories spent at those restaurants. Yes, Uniqlo to the rescue! I remember when I was a kid what they had was pretty bare bones...amazing now that there's some style to match the quality too!

    Woo! The 5am ramen train is back! That's great that the kouyokaku owners found an apprentice, would have been sad for them to close despite making such great ramen

    • @5AMRamen
      @5AMRamen  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      For sure! So great to see these places carry on. Thanks coming on board again!

    Next time I’m going to Japan I’m putting Kitakyushu on the list, seems like a nice city!

    • @5AMRamen
      @5AMRamen  ปีที่แล้ว

      You'd like it! Nice that it's not too crowded as well.

    I do love me a good Tonkotsu 👍

    • @5AMRamen
      @5AMRamen  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You'd be right at home in Kita Kyushu.

    wow good call on that shop maybe not being around much longer 🎯

      I got lucky with that guess, haha

    Does champon belong in the family of ramens or is it something else? 😊

    • @5AMRamen
      @5AMRamen  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      A first cousin of ramen perhaps? 😀

  • @Maityist
    @Maityist 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    It's a shame that Tonpuku closed, it's always sad when a place closes simply because there is no one to continue the shop.

    • @5AMRamen
      @5AMRamen  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Indeed! Bitter sweet being able to share their ramen with you all on screen before that happened.

    Do you ever think about starting an Udon channel? 😊

    • @5AMRamen
      @5AMRamen  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I think the Ramen Gods would strike me down. Do like udon once in a while tho 😊

    • @5AMRamen
      @5AMRamen  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Sorry about that - 4th bowl is a great choice tho!

    I know this is not ramen related but...
    Who were the Banana People in the port???

    • @5AMRamen
      @5AMRamen  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Pretty random, huh? Haha. Apparently that port handled a lot of Japan's banana imports back in the day.
