As a famous ramen restaurant that’s been a huge success in Japan for more than 40 years, Yamagoya Ramen knows a thing or two about serving great, authentic product at a reasonable price. Masato Okata or Kaijosan, our ramen-loving Japanese founder, just couldn’t find the rip-roaring ramen he craved. After numerous experiments, our fearless leader hit on the perfect method for an awesome ramen. He created his own soup base, full of the flavor that comes from only using special parts of the pork bone and boiling it for the perfect time. Then he developed his own ramen noodle recipe and the ideal way to prepare melt-in-the-mouth Chashu pork. Naturally after word got out, the logical next step was the opening of Mr. Okata’s first restaurant in the mountainous Takawa district - naming it “Yamagoya Ramen” which means ‘mountain’. Word continued to spread and Yamagoya Ramen became known for its special boiled egg dish. Next thing we know, we have more than 120 branches of Yamagoya Ramen all over Japan and new branches opening up every month in South East Asia. Ogata has invested in his very own factories to keep quality and consistency to the highest standards. Likewise, every time you go to a Yamagoya Ramen restaurant here in Surabaya, you’ll find the dining environment just as tasty as the dishes.
