Akanoren Setchan Ramen (Tenjin main shop)

元祖赤のれん 節ちゃんラーメン 天神本店

Mild tonkotsu behind a red noren since 1946

Address

2-6-4 Daimyo, Chuo-ku (Plus Gate Tenjin, 1F)

A Hakata ramen veteran under a red noren, started as a street stall in 1946. The pork-bone broth simmers long but tastes light, with a touch of soy sweetness, and the flat noodles slide down easily. A good stop when heavy tonkotsu feels like too much.
