Today I was able to go for ramen earlier than usual, so I visited Kanadeya for the first time in 5 months. I was really happy to be back. When I arrived around 8 pm, there were no other customers. I was seated at the counter on the left side after entering the restaurant. This seat is designated for solo diners, with not only a partition on the side but also a removable board in front for splash protection and passing dishes. When ordering, you just need to ring the bell provided, so there's no need to shout. It felt like dining in a high-end restaurant, and it made me feel safe even in these times. As someone in the same industry, I must say that not many restaurants are as attentive as this one. It had been a while, so I ordered the default tonkotsu ramen with a side of takana rice bowl and 4 gyoza. After about 5 minutes, the front board was removed, and my ramen was served. I took a sip of the soup, which was as mild and easy to drink as ever. The umami flavor was strong but not overwhelming, just delicious! The noodles were cooked perfectly, just as I requested. The takana rice bowl and gyoza arrived a bit later. The sweet and savory takana with mayonnaise was a perfect match. While fried rice can be found anywhere, this takana rice bowl is unique to this restaurant. The gyoza, which I hadn't ordered in a while, were bite-sized and crispy on the outside, with juicy meat inside, a perfect accompaniment to the ramen. Since I don't come here often, I rang the bell to order an extra serving of noodles. There was a sign saying they had to raise the price by 150 yen due to the consumption tax increase and rising ingredient costs, but in this day and age, that's completely understandable! I appreciate them for raising the prices and hope they can continue serving delicious food for a long time. I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to Kanadeya after a long time! Now, let's get back to work from tomorrow onwards. Thank you for the meal.

The restaurant is located a 5-minute walk from Nishitetsu Ohashi Station's east exit. The interior has only counter seats, with seating capacity reduced by half for COVID-19 measures. The COVID-19 precautions are well-implemented, providing a sense of safety. This time, I ordered the Croton Noodle. It is a delicious ramen made from a blend of several types of nuts and vegetables roasted in-house, offering a deep and fragrant flavor. They also offer Napoli-ton and a rare Italian ramen.

It's so cold! Since the closing time was moved 30 minutes earlier (L.O 21:45), I haven't been able to visit Kanadeya as often. Maybe if I rush there right after work, I could make it just in time for the last order, but I don't really feel like doing that (^◇^;) However, today I can go there at an earlier time, so it's my first revisit in 4 months. I arrived at the restaurant around 9 PM, and maybe because of the cold, there were no other customers. I sat at the counter seat at the back. It's been a while, so I was unsure what to order, but I chose the meat wonton ramen and, of course, the takana rice bowl. The meat wonton ramen arrived in about 10 minutes. The soup was light, but still had a rich flavor. A well-balanced tonkotsu soup that seemed to appeal to everyone and not have any strong flavors. The thin noodles had a good texture! I always ask for the default firmness at Kanadeya, and it's just right. And then the main dish, the meat wonton, the filling was meaty. But the highlight is not that, it's the chewy skin. If you eat it right after it's served, it's chewy, but if you let it soak in the soup and let it grow, the chewy skin becomes bouncy, giving a different texture to enjoy. This is what I like about it. The takana rice bowl, which I haven't had in a while, is still delicious! While many places make their takana ridiculously spicy, Kanadeya's takana is sweet and savory. The sweetness is actually quite strong. It's eye-opening how tasty it is! The mayonnaise on top also enhances the flavor. A must-eat dish when you visit Kanadeya. It was freezing when I entered, but after finishing the meal, my body felt warm! That's the charm of winter ramen. I wonder if they have any winter limited noodles? If I hear about it, I'll revisit right away! It was delicious. Thank you for the meal.

After seeing a review by Mairebi-sama, I decided to visit Kanadeya, a shop I had been planning to go to soon! It's near my house, so I always felt like I could go anytime, but in reality, I hadn't been able to go. The main target was the tomato dipping soba, but I went close to closing time at night so of course it was sold out! This time, I ordered the tonkotsu ramen, kuroton, and takana don, which are all popular items. The takana don was also recommended. I've eaten a lot of takana dishes before, and even though I thought there must be a limit to how good takana can be, it exceeded my expectations! It was really delicious! The takana wasn't spicy, and the rice went down smoothly. The ramen was also delicious. The chashu was melt-in-your-mouth, just how I like it! The restaurant had excellent COVID-19 measures in place, and I loved the taste! I've decided to go back again. Next time, I want to try the tomato dipping soba.

In the past, I feel like I heard this line in a movie.... August is already coming to an end. My dear readers have been telling me about so many attractive summer limited-time menus, and I want to go here and there, but my favorite summer champion dipping noodles, Kanadeya's "Tomato Dipping Soba," is also coming to an end, so I really feel like I need to stock up on it (^◇^;) So, just like last week, I came back again this week. I took a seat at the counter and ordered the Tomato Dipping Soba and Takana Don. It's delicious no matter how many times I eat it, it's really amazing! I already liked summer, but since I met the Tomato Dipping Soba, I've liked it 1.5 times more! I hope I can eat it one more time! If only I had a stomach like a food fighter that could eat a lot, I could eat recommended summer noodles from MyRebi after eating here, but it's silly to think of such things without acting my age. While I do think it would be nice for everyone to try my beloved Tomato Dipping Soba, I would be in trouble if influencers like Nakasu Prince or Chic Cat reviewed it and it became a super popular store, and my portion would disappear! Haha ♡ Once summer is over, I will make sure to enjoy the regular menu as well! Thank you for the meal.

The summer break is over, and already half of August has passed. This means that there is little time left to enjoy Kanadeya's signature tomato dipping noodles "Tomato Tsukemen"! Even though I said I wanted to eat it at least 5 times during the summer, I have only had it once so far (^◇^;) I don't want to regret it, so I decided to visit Kanadeya. I used to go after work in the evenings, but due to its popularity, they now close at 10 pm, which I couldn't make it in time for (T ^ T). Furthermore, the owner's tweet mentioned that "due to the continued intense heat, the tomato dipping noodles often sell out during lunch hours," so I decided to visit right after they opened to ensure I could enjoy it. I entered after using the hand sanitizer at the entrance. Of course, I was the first customer and was seated at the front counter. I ordered the Tomato Tsukemen and Takana Don, just like last time, sorry. Because during this season, there is no other choice but to order this at Kanadeya, I can't even consider their other ramen! In less than 10 minutes, the Tomato Tsukemen arrived, looking as if it would say, "I'm Tomamen." Oh my ♡ It's so cold and perfect for such a hot day! I sprinkled the black pepper handed to me with "Please add to your liking" over the tomato and basil dipping sauce and started to enjoy it! Ahhh, no matter how many times I eat it, it's still incredibly delicious!! The rich flavor of tomato and basil is so delicious, like a drug!! It's the best!! Divine!!! I may have gotten a little carried away, but for me, this is by far my favorite Tsukemen in the world. To prevent the dipping sauce from getting diluted, I cut the noodles with water and then dipped them deeply into the sauce before slurping them up, and that alone can take you to heaven!! Whether you like it or not is a matter of preference, but I always end up shivering and twitching every time I eat it ♡ The Kanadeya specialty Takana Don was also delicious as always! Instead of the intensely spicy takana typical of ramen shops, this one had a sweet and delicious takana with mayo on top, which I also love! After finishing the Takana Don and seeing the noodles in the Tomato Tsukemen getting low, I felt a little sentimental, but after savoring the last slurp, it was time for the usual ritual of drinking up the remaining dipping sauce. I know it's not something you should do, but I just can't help but want to finish it. It's a bit uncouth, sorry about that. Well, there are still two weeks until the beginning of September, so I think I want to eat it at least once more... Actually, maybe twice. If I miss this time, I won't be able to have it for at least another year. If I can eat this, I don't mind if it's hot all year round haha. Thank you for the meal.

During the state of emergency, Kanadeya-san followed the prefecture's request and temporarily closed. After the lifting of the emergency, they resumed operations, and I had been wanting to go for so long but couldn't make it. I had been keeping an eye on their updates on Twitter though. When I saw a tweet recently saying they would be serving tomato tsukemen until early September, I couldn't resist any longer. Despite the heavy rain, I decided to take this lazy guy out without any hesitation! I was a bit worried about the limited quantity, but with this heavy rain, I thought it might be okay. I arrived at the restaurant around 8:30 pm, and I was a bit surprised to see only one other customer due to the rain. I was guided to a counter seat at the far end, and it felt nostalgic to be back at Kanadeya-san after 5 months. When I asked the owner if they still had the tomato tsukemen, they reassured me that they did. I ordered extra noodles and also asked for a Takana-don to fully enjoy my long-awaited visit. The tomato tsukemen arrived in about 10 minutes, and oh my goodness, it was so good! I missed you so much! I thought I might not be able to see you again! The owner named it "Tomaemon," and it was as cute as always! I couldn't help but dig in quickly, even though I felt it was a shame to destroy the presentation. I immersed the noodles in the tomato and basil dipping sauce and slurped it all up in one go. It was delicious! The rich flavor of the tomato hit me all at once. Tomatoes are always delicious when eaten raw in a salad, but they become incredibly tasty when cooked, right? I couldn't stop saying "Oh, it's delicious!" with every bite. The owner recommended adding lemon to the dipping sauce and crushing it for a refreshing taste, so I tried it, and it made the dish even more refreshing! There's no colder tsukemen than this on a hot day! And then the Takana-don, isn't the Takana at ramen shops usually insanely spicy? Kanadeya-san's Takana-don has a sweet seasoning that allows you to taste the umami of the Takana. The combination with mayo is also excellent, making it delicious! After 5 months, I had my beloved Kanadeya-san and the best tsukemen in a year. "Ah, happiness!" is all that came out of my mouth! I wonder how many times I can eat it until September. I'll aim for at least 5 times! It was incredibly delicious. Thank you for the meal.

Tonkotsu ramen with boiled egg, topped with pickled mustard greens. The soup is a gentle pork bone broth with a hint of sweetness, very delicious. The pickled mustard greens rice is amazing, with a perfect balance of sweet and spicy flavors, topped with mayonnaise. I want to try other menu items as well, so I will definitely revisit this place.

The serious and open-minded personality of the manager is reflected in the flavors and atmosphere of this hidden gem of a restaurant. While it may not be widely featured in ramen magazines, this kind of hidden gem is what makes a great restaurant. The carefully prepared tonkotsu soup allows you to taste the sweetness of the vegetables, and the noodles, chashu, and green onions all complement each other perfectly. I finally tried the "Kanadeya-style Saga Ramen" for 700 yen, which includes beaten egg, chopped onions, and seaweed for an additional 100 yen. The soup was milder and so delicious that I couldn't stop slurping it up. Next time, I might try the Napoli ton. By the way, they accept PayPay.

I saw this on Instagram and got really curious. The base is tonkotsu (pork bone broth). Then there's tomato adding a Napolitan-like flavor. Also basil leaves, cheese. Despite being tonkotsu, various flavors come through. It's not just the appearance, but also enjoyable to eat. When you get used to the taste a bit, sprinkle black pepper for a better flavor. You can taste the pork bone flavor, tomato acidity, cheese sweetness, a variety of flavors. The impact of the flavors can overpower the noodles, but eating them together with cheese is also good. Lastly, adding rice and eating it risotto-style with the soup was really delicious. Before I knew it, I had finished it all. #Napolitan #Ramen Kanadeya #CreativeRamen #FukuokaRamen #Gourmet #FukuokaGourmet #RamenLoversUnite #GourmetLoversUnite #ItalianRamen #ItalianTonkotsu #noodles #noodlestagram #fukuokafood #FukuokaLunch #foodstagram #foodphotography #ramen #Fukuoka #Kanadeya #italian #TonkotsuRamen #Ramen #KyushuRamen #WantToLoseWeight #WantToLoseWeightButWantToEat #Menstagram #Noodlestagram #Foodstagram #FoodPorn #Tabelog

It had been a while since I visited Kanadeya-san. When I entered the shop, the owner was wearing a mask. Even before the recent outbreak of the coronavirus, they were already wearing a mask for flu prevention. And since the coronavirus started spreading, they have been posting official tweets saying, "Please refrain from visiting the shop if you have the flu or a persistent cough. Please come visit after you have recovered." This is not discrimination, but a measure to protect the shop and its customers. I hope that people can understand and respect this kind of consideration. As someone who works in the food industry, I deeply respect their attitude. I also want to work with a firm determination like this! Thank you for the meal.

Last year, I had planned to end the year by visiting Kanadeya on their final business day, but since they were only open for lunch, I couldn't close out the year at Kanadeya. So, I decided to make my first visit of 2020 to Kanadeya. When I arrived around 10 pm, more than half of the counter seats were already taken. It seems like everyone loves Kanadeya, and I'm no exception! The owner looked energetic and that gentle, soothing vibe that I love about him was still there. I really wanted to have the Miso Tonkotsu ramen, but for some reason, I decided to go with the basic Tonkotsu for my first bowl and added the "special" option, which comes with 5 slices of Kanadeya's amazing chashu. The ramen also comes with a boiled egg, but if you don't want it, you can get a discount of 100 yen. I'm not a fan of boiled eggs in ramen, so I asked for it to be removed. And of course, the carb-loving old man I am, I also ordered rice. The ramen was served in about 5 minutes. As always, the ramen looked beautiful, and the taste was even better! The soup was mild and light, but packed with flavor. The noodles were just right, with a perfect balance of firmness and smoothness. Mixing the noodles with rice and slurping it all up, I couldn't help but exclaim, "Delicious!" I finished it in no time. I still love Kanadeya so much! I'll definitely be coming back often this year. Thank you for the wonderful meal.

I got the information from Kanadeya's tweet that their winter limited edition ramen, Miso Ton, would be available starting December 5th, so I went there right away. After finishing work, I drove to the restaurant and arrived around 10 pm. There was only one group of customers already there and about to leave. I ordered the Miso Ton and Takana Don from the owner. While waiting and scrolling through my phone, I happened to see a tweet from Kanadeya an hour ago. I read it and found out that the Takana Don was sold out. What?! But the owner didn't tell me it was sold out, maybe they didn't hear my order for the Takana Don? If they didn't hear, that's actually good luck for me, I thought. Then the owner said, "You can add butter for an extra 50 yen," so I eagerly said, "Yes, please!" The Miso Ton arrived shortly after, and it looked beautiful! It was so delicious! The pork bone-based soup with spicy miso was flavorful and rich. The toppings included bean sprouts, cabbage, corn, and other vegetables, adding to the deliciousness. Adding butter and tasting the default soup first... so delicious! The Miso Ton was a masterpiece. As I was enjoying it, the Takana Don arrived. Wait, wasn't it sold out? Did they make it just for me? I felt a bit guilty but couldn't help but smile. It was my first time trying the Takana Don, and the sweet and savory flavor of the pickled mustard greens was amazing! It was a perfect match with rice. Adding butter to the Miso Ton enhanced the flavor even more. I almost finished the soup and completely finished the Takana Don. My stomach was full, but my heart was also full of satisfaction. The spicy Miso Ton is perfect for the cold winter. I highly recommend trying it! Thank you to the owner for the delicious meal.

After work, it's cold and as usual, my body is craving ramen. When I feel like having tonkotsu ramen, recently I always think of Kanadeya or Komaya. So, tonight I decided to go to Kanadeya. I arrived at the restaurant just before 10 pm. Hmm? There's a sign on the door saying they are preparing to close? But there are customers inside, so I quietly opened the door and asked, "Are you closing?" The owner replied, "We're done serving rice, but we can still serve ramen if you don't mind waiting a bit." No problem at all, I said, and took a seat at the end of the counter. The counter was almost full, everyone seems to love Kanadeya. I'm no exception! Today, I ordered the meat wonton noodles. Although I was told it would take a bit of time, the meat wonton noodles arrived in about 10 minutes. I was actually expecting to wait a bit longer, but I was too excited to care. I took a sip of the soup to warm up my cold body, it was light but full of flavor, as always, the chef is really skilled. The soup is delicious! The meat wontons were chewy and meaty, so tasty! The noodles were also delicious! Truly, it's the quality of Kanadeya. I'm completely satisfied tonight! I hope they come up with a new limited edition ramen soon to make me even more addicted. Thank you for the meal.

Today my body was craving ramen, so I decided to visit Kanadeya for the first time in a while. I arrived around 10 pm after finishing work, with only one other group of customers present before me. I sat at the end of the counter and debated between the default tonkotsu ramen or the meat wonton noodles, but ended up ordering the Napoli ton. In about 10 minutes, the Napoli ton arrived, with its stylish presentation as always. It had been a while since I had Napoli ton, but the combination of Kanadeya's signature tonkotsu broth and tomato was truly amazing! The flavor and acidity of the tomato, combined with the rich cheese, created a masterpiece of creative ramen. After finishing the noodles, I added the optional risotto set for an extra 50 yen to the soup. I enjoyed every drop of the delicious soup with the rice. Whether it's the Napoli ton or the summer tomato dipping noodles, the owner of Kanadeya is truly a tomato magician with their incredible usage of tomatoes! They are a genius, for sure. It was really delicious today too! Thank you for the meal.

Usually, the store is closed on Sundays, but it was open on the middle day of the 3-day weekend. The store will be closed on the 14th for Health and Sports Day. After shopping in Tenjin, my eldest daughter and I visited the store together for the first time in about 8 years. There didn't seem to be a parking lot at the store, so we parked at a nearby coin parking lot and walked to the store. My eldest daughter, who was visiting for the first time, ordered the Tonkotsu Ramen for 600 yen, and I, who had tried the Tonkotsu Ramen last time, ordered the Kuroton Ramen for 700 yen, with the broth being extra rich. The Kuroton Ramen at Kanadeya is made by blending a fragrant sauce made from roasted nuts and vegetables into the soup, as stated on the menu. The process of making Tonkotsu and Kuroton seems to be the same. When the ramen was ready, they sprinkled the fragrant sauce on top. The Kuroton Ramen came with thick, large slices of chashu pork, wood ear mushrooms, green onions, and plenty of sesame seeds. When I tasted the soup, it was different from the garlic-flavored black ma-yu I was expecting. While garlic may have been used, it was hardly noticeable. The addition of the fragrant sauce seemed to enhance the depth of flavor in the light pork bone soup. The consumption tax was increased to 10% in October, but Kanadeya is trying their best not to raise prices. It's a restaurant worth supporting.

Today I really felt like eating ramen. After finishing work, I decided to go to my favorite ramen place, Kanadeya. When I greeted the staff with a "Good evening," there were about two other customers already there. I sat at the available counter seat and ordered the default Tonkotsu ramen. I also added the Kanadeya set, which came with a small bowl of rice and four gyoza. Later, two girls who seemed to be coming from work entered and toasted with ramen, Heartland beer, and four gyoza from the Heartland set. I was a bit envious. Moving on, my first taste of Kanadeya's default ramen was amazing. The soup was light and smooth as the owner had described, making it very easy to drink. However, the flavor was rich and delicious. The limited edition and special ramen are all tasty because the base soup is of very high quality. It's clear that the owner of Kanadeya is a genius! I said it out loud. Ah, once again, I am completely satisfied. Thank you for the meal.

The limited edition noodle dish "Kanadeya Special" started at the beginning of September. It's like a best-of album combining three popular dishes from Kanadeya: meat wonton noodles with ma oil, croutons, and Kanadeya-style Saga ramen with beaten egg added to the pork bone soup. I finally visited after a month of anticipation. I sat at the counter and ordered the Kanadeya Special and the B set. The B set includes a small bowl of rice and dumplings, and during lunchtime, it's only an additional +150 yen. First, let's review the limited edition noodle dish, Kanadeya Special. I had only tried limited edition noodles at Kanadeya before, and I had never tried their regular menu, so this was my first time tasting it. The basic pork bone soup is light yet full of flavor and of very high quality! The Kanadeya-style Saga ramen with beaten egg adds a smooth and gentle flavor. I was completely hooked at this point. But what makes the Kanadeya Special so amazing is that it doesn't stop there. The meat wontons are plentiful and have a chewy skin with a great texture! The pork flavor oozes out from inside, and it's the type of wonton I really love. When I mixed the ma oil that had been pushed to the side into the croutons and tried it, I could taste the garlic flavor, but there was also a gentle sweetness that was really delicious! Honestly, I've had pork bone ramen with ma oil before, and while I didn't dislike it, I didn't love it either, but this one was incredibly tasty. It was great that it wasn't ma oil from the beginning but more like a flavor change. And the side menu was also a first for me, but the set dumplings, although small, had a crispy skin and a great texture! They were so delicious and hot that they are definitely a must-order as well. I ended up ordering an extra serving of noodles and before I knew it, I had finished the soup too. I love pork bone soup, but I rarely finish it all. So, it's really rare for me to find a place where I can finish it all. So, it's really great that another place like that has opened up! I mentioned earlier that the B set with rice and dumplings costs only an additional +150 yen during lunchtime, but starting today, October 1st, the consumption tax has increased to 10%. There are quite a few tweets on Twitter saying that prices will be raised starting today, but Kanadeya has declared that they will not raise prices. In order to not raise prices, they have discontinued adding extra green onions for the extra noodles, and they have stopped using the sauce dish for the dumplings in the set to reduce dishwashing, as well as reducing outdoor lighting during evening hours to save electricity, among other efforts to give back to customers. This is truly a wonderful effort that can only be made with a sense of gratitude and care for customers, as I know well as someone in the same industry! Such a wonderful restaurant is hard to come by. Not only the taste, but the dedication of the owner to appreciate and take care of their customers has really won me over! I will continue to visit as long as the restaurant stays open! I wonder what kind of limited edition noodles will be next, looking forward to it~♡ It was truly delicious! Thank you for the meal.

I really wanted to savor the tomato tsukemen one more time before it ended, so I rushed to Kanadeya after work. It was about 30 minutes before last order, but I asked if they still had the tomato tsukemen, and they did! I ordered a large serving to fully enjoy it. In less than 10 minutes, the tomato tsukemen arrived. I missed you! I immediately dipped the noodles generously in the dipping sauce and slurped it up. It was so delicious! The rich flavor of the tomato spread throughout my mouth. I couldn't stop eating it, and I finished it in no time. When the noodles started to run out, I felt a little sad. How can something so delicious do this to me? I can't eat anymore... I hope they bring it back next year. But I'm grateful I got to taste it again at the end! Thank you to the owner for serving such delicious food! I'm looking forward to the limited Avengers noodles next month, which combines Kanadeya's popular lineup. I'm even more excited because I've never tried the regular menu at Kanadeya, only the limited edition noodles! Thank you for the meal.

Today, I went to a ramen specialty shop called Kanadeya, located a 3-minute walk from the east exit of Nishitetsu Ohashi Station. Despite it being a weekday, there was a bit of a line, and I had to wait for about 15 minutes before finally being seated. The interior of the shop consisted only of a wooden counter. I ordered the Tonkotsu Ramen (with boiled egg). It took about 15 minutes for my order to arrive due to the busy kitchen. Although I don't like waiting 15 minutes for ramen, the taste was really delicious. I could feel the dedication of the shop owner and the love put into the flavor. It may take some time to be served, but this ramen is highly recommended. They also offer unique options like Napolitan and Italian ramen, although I didn't try them myself.
