Shio ramen with extra chicken
The story behind the bowl
Kaichi builds its golden soup entirely around chicken and serves it with meaty chicken-thigh chashu. The Kokubuncho branch is Sendai’s current top-ranked ramen destination.
Before you go: It can sell out before the posted closing time; make it a planned lunch.
