Hi, I’m Daniel Gray. I’m a Korean-American storyteller, tour guide, and food expert who’s passionate about sharing Korea’s rich culture with the world. Over the years, I’ve hosted travelers, curated immersive tours, and appeared on shows like Netflix’s Street Food: Asia – Seoul. My goal is simple: to help you connect deeply with Korea through meaningful experiences, delicious food, and unforgettable stories.
ha, ichi-rmaen is a ripoff of ICHIRAN ramen in Fukuoka, its very famous. Well, most Koreans wont know it, so they can just take the vibe of the place, but I bet its not the taste!
I eat Hakoya, but Ive never had a true Japanese Ramen in Korea. I lived in Japan for 4 years, I know! hehe
Here is the Ramen in a Booth at Ichi-men
And the magically appearing Ramen from Ichi-men
KoKo-Ro Ramen in Sinsadong
Raw in Gangnam. Miso Ramen with Corn GROSS.
81 Banya Ramen in Itaewon's Wall of Fame. If you eat the humongoid bowl of Ramen, it's free.

Hakatabunkko (하카타코) in Hongdae
Thick and cloudy, the broth gives life to the noodles. They also give you a garlic press so you can put a whole clove of garlic in it. Sure, it's not your traditional shoyu ramen, but it's damn good.
LOL...I share your hatred of random corn sprinkled on food. Were they canned corn? That's even worse..

oh well, its not my country
This blog would be a billion times better if there were directions to these places. A google search doesn't always do it.
ReplyDeleteI recommend Sagaramen in Sinsa near Garusogil. I can't remember what they called it but the first ramen on the menu is very good, closest to Japan's.
