It was delicious anyway. We waited in line, but the turnover was fast, and people leaving were saying how delicious it was as they left. When it was our turn, we squeezed onto the narrow bench seats and forgot about the cramped space as we indulged in the delicious food. The taste was so good that we wanted to try every menu item, and ended up being a surprisingly high-paying customer at 7000 yen per person (lol). I am grateful for the deliciousness. I will definitely revisit when I travel to Fukuoka again. Thank you for the feast.

First food stall. Searched for a food stall to visit when going to Hakata. Selected carefully and went to Tomochan. A quick food hopping. On a weekday evening, it was raining a bit and I was worried if other food stalls would be open, but Tomochan was open! There was quite a line, but thanks to people who gave up and left, we were able to get seated quickly. They kindly explained the menu to me, as I seemed like a first-timer. The ingredients were neatly displayed in the showcase. Big shiitake mushrooms. I wanted to try the grilled dishes and skewers, but I was quite full, so I ordered oden and ramen. "Oden" ¥160, "Ramen" ¥750, "Beer" ¥650, "Highball" ¥500. The bottled beer was nicely chilled. The highball was a bit warm and felt flat, but it's understandable given the hot summer weather. The radish in the oden was soft and tasty, probably because they use a slightly sweet soy sauce from Kyushu. I was nervous about the pork bone smell in the ramen from the food stall, but it was delicious! No unpleasant smell. The pork bone ramen was really tasty and easy to eat. I wish I could have tried other menu items too. Tomochan is a good choice for a food stall in Hakata. Actually, Tomochan is the best. Thank you for the meal!

We went to the restaurant after watching a concert at the PayPay Dome. The grilled dishes were delicious and satisfying. For tasty ramen, we recommend the food stall called Hanamaru. After shopping and taking a restroom break at the FamilyMart, make sure to visit this restaurant.

"After seeing a post saying 'This is the best ramen stall,' I decided to check it out. It was crowded, with a line of 3 people that was told to be 7 people deep. I didn't mind waiting as I had time, the weather was nice, and I was in the mood for some ramen after a light dinner. After about 30 minutes, I was finally seated. The place had around 10-12 seats, mostly occupied by couples. There were many Chinese and Korean customers, and mostly women. A stall that is popular among women is usually a good sign. The friendly manager quickly took my beer order, and I couldn't resist ordering some grilled liver and okra rolls. I was planning to just have a bowl of ramen, but the temptations were strong. There were tempting grilled meats made from good cuts of beef, priced higher than the ramen, and a hot pot of oden with pouches and gyoza rolls that seemed like more than just side dishes. Despite being tempted, I stuck to my plan and ordered the ramen. It was a tonkotsu ramen, yet surprisingly light and delicious. Why is it that Fukuoka's ramen never disappoints? I wish there was a stall like this near my place. Should I move?"

While enjoying a highball, I had ramen, yakisoba ramen, sagari, and oden. The ramen was delicious, but the highlight was the "mentaiko yakisoba ramen" which was amazing! The sagari was of high quality and the meat was delicious. The oden was on the sweeter side. Despite sweating from waiting in line for about 15 minutes, I was so satisfied that I would definitely line up again for this experience. I will definitely come back!

After finishing eating, I went to a shot bar and then wanted to go to a food stall alone. So, I went to this place that Hanamaru-san had introduced before. It was past 10 pm and there was one group waiting, but I was able to get in after waiting a bit. I ordered oden and a highball. It's nice. I really want to come with someone else to this place. I ate a little, ordered char siu ramen, and came back home. Very satisfied!

On a business trip night, I was drinking at a food stall with my close colleagues from around 9 o'clock. Ever since watching the food stall comedians on AmeTalk a while back, whenever I come to Hakata, I go to Tomochan's stall. We had beer with grilled tongue and skirt steak, and finished with ramen. It was fantastic! It was hot, but it was really good.

When I came to Fukuoka, I wanted to visit the food stall "Tomochan" and I arrived around 10 PM. It was full, but luckily two seats opened up right away and I could sit down quickly. I ordered various tempting dishes from the menu and the oden in front of me was just irresistible. The black wagyu tongue had a crispy texture on the outside and was juicy and sweet inside. The oden was all flavorful and delicious. Most customers were ordering oden and ramen, so I couldn't resist and also ordered ramen as a finishing touch. The soup was so tasty that even after finishing the ramen, I wanted to drink more soup. Overall, it was a great experience! ---------------------------------------- ✏️Items Ordered: - Black Wagyu Tongue ¥1,600 - Daikon Radish Oden ¥150 - Egg ¥150 - Mochi Pouch ¥150 - Cabbage Roll ¥250 - Grilled Cod Roe ¥800 - Rolled Items ¥330 (Okra, Asparagus) - Skewered Sand Lance Fish ¥170 - Ramen ¥700 ---------------------------------------- ✏️Price Range: ¥3,000-¥4,000 per person ✏️Business Hours: Tue-Sat 18:15-2:00, Sun 18:15-1:30 ✏️Closed on Mondays ✏️Access: 4-minute walk from Tenjin Station ✏️Instagram: @tomocyan_yatai

This popular and affordable food stall seems to have different prices between Nakasu and Tenjin areas. The ramen here is said to be delicious, and I managed to find a seat close to being full even before midnight. Hmm, this pork bone broth is really tasty. Thank you for the meal!

It is located around halfway between Tenjin area and Nakasu. A friend told me about it and I decided to give it a try. I went around 9 p.m. and had to wait for about an hour in line. They had oden, ramen, yakitori, and more. The food was delicious. It was a great experience to try out the Hakata street food, but I thought it might not be worth waiting for an hour.

The ramen was delicious, both the noodles and the soup! I also tried the oden, and the broth was so soothing. It was a perfect match with sake. I left some of the ramen uneaten, not because it wasn't tasty, but because I was too full from being too greedy. I need to reflect on my desires. I can't seem to control my cravings. I'll try to do better next time, but I'll definitely come back again. Next time, I'll finish everything.

Final drinking party during Golden Week. We drank at an oden restaurant in Nishi Chuo-ku and then moved on to a second location. We walked to an izakaya on Showa Street and had some delicious food. The ramen at the end was also delicious. The grilled ramen seems to be popular. The person sitting next to us had been drinking since 1 PM, they were a strong drinker. I enjoy talking to strangers at izakayas.

I resisted the temptation to finish off with motsunabe and wanted to end my meal at a food stall. Since it was Golden Week, I experienced lining up at a food stall for the first time (lol). I had the feeling of just casually choosing a stall with no line, but every stall had a queue, so I decided to line up at a well-known one. Most people don't just eat ramen and leave, so everyone was drinking and I ended up waiting for 2 and a half hours. The ramen was Nagahama ramen. It was delicious. There were some menu items that were sold out, which was a shame, but it was nice to experience the atmosphere of a food stall after a long time.

Food stall Tomo-chan. I've been wanting to go there for a long time and finally got the chance. If you're lucky, you might even sit next to a comedian... When I went for the first time, there was a comedian sitting next to me (*^_^*) They were very friendly, and although the impression was different from what you see on TV, they were just enjoying their private time so I didn't disturb them and focused on eating quietly haha The ramen was perfect for finishing off after drinking! The oden was quite sweet.

In Fukuoka's Tenjin area, there is a super popular food stall called Hakata Hanamaru・Daikichi. On weekdays at 9:00 PM, there was a wait of 10 people. After waiting for 35 minutes, we were able to be seated. ☑︎ Ramen ¥750 A light tonkotsu (pork bone broth) ramen. The chashu (sliced pork) is thin but melts in your mouth. ☑︎ Black Wagyu Beef Tongue ¥1400 Two types of beef tongue with different textures are served on one plate, marinated in a refreshing lemon-like sauce. Both were unexpectedly tender and incredibly delicious! ☑︎ Oden Rolled Cabbage ¥350 ☑︎ Oden Daikon Radish ¥160 Sweetly simmered oden (Japanese hot pot) dishes. The rolled cabbage had tender meat inside.

When it comes to Hakata, you have to visit the food stalls. Whenever I go to Hakata, I always make sure to stop by the food stalls and Mochan. Today, there was a one-hour wait. I ordered my usual Saga beef skewers and beer, and since it was a little chilly, I also got some oden. And of course, I had to finish with ramen. The light tonkotsu ramen from Nagahama is just so satisfying. I've been coming here for over 20 years, and I hope they continue to preserve the food stall culture for years to come.

2/28 Fukuoka Trip ✈️ Around ¥1,500 per person. Second stop at a street food stall in Tenjin! Enjoyed beer and hot sake while having delicious Nagahama ramen as the perfect ending. The seared mentaiko was a must-try when in Hakata. Had oden at the first stall, so we ordered skewers at the second one. The steak-like dish was actually liver, soft and easy to eat.

Feasting Journey Part 12 - Night visit to Fukuoka in 2023. (3rd place...lol) The location is on a street just a little towards the Tenjin side of Nishinakajima Bridge, which connects Nakasu and Tenjin. Across the road, near the Bank of Japan. It's your typical food stall. And even though it's past midnight, there's a line... Seriously popular spot. And the crowd is quite interesting, considering it's late at night. The group in front of us consists of three college girls on a trip to Hakata and a cute girl. The guy who thought he successfully hit on her realizes she's with friends, so no one-night stand for him, and he might end up treating her two friends as well. Then there's a group behind us, made up of male and female colleagues. The mature woman in the group remarks, "It's already midnight! Time flies so fast, I didn't even notice. Can't go home yet... Let's just drink for now." It's so obvious and funny, making you smile. You can experience the atmosphere of the stall even before entering the shop. After waiting for about 30 minutes, we finally get inside, and it's really cramped. Even though it's 1 am, it's crowded, so it's not exactly a place to relax and drink. Here are my thoughts on the food: 1. Oden (160 yen each x 4) - I chose daikon, egg, hanpen, and tofu. The broth is incredibly flavorful and warms you up on a cold night. 2. Yakitori (230 yen or 300 yen) - I chose bonjiri, bara, and wagyu tendon. The cooking environment may be questionable, but the taste is authentic and delicious. It may not be the best place to have yakitori, but it's great to experience it in a stall setting. 3. Ramen (750 yen) - I ordered this as a final dish... actually, this was the real reason I came to this shop, even though it's the third place we visited. My stomach must be glitching to still be able to eat ramen at this point (lol). But the actual ramen was... incredibly delicious!!! It's a rich and flavorful tonkotsu ramen with a strong pork bone broth. It's on a level that would surprise even famous ramen shops in the area. So, as a tourist, I felt like I found the "right answer" in Hakata! It's orthodox but of extremely high quality!! Really amazing!! In conclusion, this shop offers a variety of human interactions and delicious stall food. They're open until past 2 am, so it's perfect for tourists not worrying about catching the last train and for girls who just don't want to go home yet! Definitely recommended!!!

I arrived a little after 8 o'clock and there was a line of about 10 people. It was Friday, so it couldn't be helped. I obediently went to the end of the line. The turnover was good and I was seated in about 20 minutes. The oden was delicious with all the flavors soaked in. My friend ordered seconds of taro and burdock root. For grilled dishes, we ordered beef tongue, pork belly skewers, and scallops. We finished with the usual ramen. Everything was delicious. Thank you for the meal.

After drinking at a restaurant in Nakasu, we went to an outdoor stall called Tomochan for a nightcap. It was quite cold at night, but the walk from Nakasu to Tomochan took about 10 minutes and was freezing! As soon as we entered, we had some oden, which warmed us up nicely and made the conversation lively. The atmosphere of the stall was truly the best!
