As expected of Hakata tonkotsu ramen, it was very creamy and delicious! Compared to other Hakata tonkotsu ramen, it's not overly rich, so it's recommended for those who aren't used to tonkotsu ramen or for foreign visitors!
2. Motsunabe Maedaya Daimyo Branch (Photos 5-10)
📍Location: About a 7-minute walk from Akasaka Station on the Airport Line. Also within walking distance from Tenjin Station!
💰Price: Enjoy drinks, motsunabe, and snacks for around ¥5,000 per person.

Hakata, Fukuoka, is synonymous with motsunabe, so this time we'll be introducing the Motsunabe Maedaya Daimyo Branch!
First, when you arrive at the restaurant, you'll have to climb some steep stairs to the second floor (it's quite tough, lol).
The restaurant isn't particularly large, with both a counter and a tatami room. This time, I ate at the counter.
As you can see, the beer 🍺 was ice-cold and delicious! They also had a wide selection of other drinks, including shochu 🍶.
The main dish, the motsunabe 🍲, was incredibly filling and delicious! Honestly, it was enough to fill me up!
Overall, I highly recommend it, so please do!
3. Hakata Issou Nakasu Branch (Photos 11-14)
📍Location: 6-minute walk from Nakasu-Kawabata Station. It's also close to the Nakasu Yatai Street, so it's also recommended to visit there!
💰Price: Ramen, ¥900.

This ramen is the ultimate Hakata tonkotsu ramen, rich in flavor, and while it won't appeal to everyone, I think it's more suited to tonkotsu ramen lovers!
Also, keep in mind that the hours are 7:00 PM - 4:30 AM!
