[Fukushima] The real deal! Kitakata Ramen 🍜

I had some Kitakata ramen, which features a light soy sauce soup and char siu pork, in the original Kitakata. Kitakata, which flourished as a road town during the Edo period, is a historic place known as a town of storehouses, but what I'm really interested in is ramen! Lol. It seems that there are about 100 ramen shops in this town alone. This time, the famous Sakauchi Shokudo was closed, so I went to the neighboring Matsu Shokudo. The menu only has ramen and char siu ramen (large servings are also available). Since I was there, I had the char siu ramen 😋🍜 Nearby is a general store called Kitakata Ramen Shrine ⛩. In front of the store, there is a torii gate that resembles chopsticks for eating ramen, so I wonder if it's a shrine? However, it seems that the ramen soft serve with Naruto on it is famous.
