The ramen shop being built near LaLaport Koshien appears to be called “麺とかつおの物語”.
The sign is up↓
We previously reported that it would be a rescue cat ramen cafe affiliated with the famous ramen shop “人類みな麺類,” known for drawing long lines😁
Here it is on the map↓
The address is 20-15 Koshien Nanabancho, Nishinomiya City, Hyogo Prefecture. The Korean restaurant “ワァオワァオキッチン” used to be here.
Area Around “麺とかつおの物語”
Here’s the exterior of the shop.
Across the street is LaLaport Koshien.
If you go this way, you’ll find GH SALAD, Kissa Koshien, Naruo Library, sho-time, and more.
In the opposite direction, you’ll find Taiwan-style fried chicken and Koshien fried chicken “手羽虎”, IVY Burger, Koshien Plus, and Koshien Stadium.
Above the sign, there’s an illustration of all kinds of cats enjoying ramen😸 There’s also a bonito, which appears in the shop name too〜
By the way, the affiliated shop “人類みな麺類” apparently has three types of ramen on its menu: Genten, Micro, and Macro. One of them, “Ramen Genten”, is said to be a soy sauce ramen with aromatic oil made using plenty of bonito.
This is just my own guess, but maybe the new Nishinomiya shop will serve ramen that carries on the flavor of that “Ramen Genten”?〜Just speculation, though〜
Finally
According to a post on the owner’s X account, they seem to be aiming to open on August 15, but construction could cause the date to shift, so nothing is definite yet. If we hear anything else, we may write another article〜
