It looks like a Taiwan mazesoba specialty shop called “らーめんKING” is opening right in front of Koshien Stadium.

Here it is↓
A big banner was up🙌
Taiwan mazesoba らーめんKING
Scheduled to open in early June
Here it is on the map↓
The address is 20-16 Koshien Nanabancho, Nishinomiya, Hyogo.
This is the former location of the hamburger specialty shop “IVY-BURGER” and the Korean izakaya “ワァオ.” It had been temporarily closed for a while, but it seems they have closed for good.
Around “らーめんKING”
Right in front is Koshien Stadium.
If you go this way (east), you’ll find places like Tebatora, Naruo Junior High School, and りんご飴専門店 りんごのおもい.
If you go in the opposite direction (north), you’ll find Chinese restaurant Banri next door, Corowa Koshien, and the area toward Hanshin Koshien Station.
As of now, the storefront still looked like the former “IVY BURGER.”
What is “らーめんKING”?
Quoted from the official website of らーめん キング
らーめんKING is a specialty shop for Taiwan mazesoba and ramen, with its main location in Nishinakajima, Osaka City’s Yodogawa Ward, an area known for its fierce ramen competition. The Koshien shop will apparently be its second location. Their “Taiwan mazesoba” is especially popular as the signature dish, and it looks like they offer all kinds of variations, including salty, spicy, and curry flavors🍜
In Closing
Judging from the banner, mazesoba seems to be the main focus, but we’re curious whether they’ll also serve seafood ramen and other dishes like the main shop does! With its location right in front of Koshien Stadium, it feels like it could become pretty popular😊The opening is scheduled for early June.
