Okinawa Numu Ramen, a perfect combination of pork bone ramen and fried dumplings
Okinawa is a charming tourist destination with not only beautiful beaches, rich culture, but also many mouth-watering foods. Today I’d like to introduce one of the most popular ramen restaurants in Okinawa, Nunmure Ramen.
Nuanmu Ramen is a ramen brand from Kyushu. It once defeated Ichiran Ramen in the Kyushu Ramen Competition and won the championship. There are currently six branches in Okinawa, the most popular of which is the Makishi store near Kokusai-dori. This restaurant is always crowded with people, and sometimes you have to wait for an hour before you can eat. However, if you want to save time and effort, you can also choose other branches, such as the Nago store, Itoman store, etc., which have dedicated parking lots and do not require queuing.
The specialty of Nunmue Ramen is the pork bone soup, which is rich but not greasy and has a fragrant aroma. You can choose the thickness of noodles, noodle hardness, soup richness, presence or absence of green onions, amount of chili sauce and other flavors according to your preferences. In addition, another must-order side dish is fried dumplings. The fried dumplings at Nuanmu Ramen have a crispy outer skin and juicy meat filling, and they are full of flavor when you take a bite. If you think it’s not spicy enough, you can add some spicy oil or spicy miso to make it more flavorful.
I always eat Numu Ramen at least once every time I come to Okinawa because it is so delicious. If you are also a ramen lover, or want to try Okinawa's specialties, don't miss this store. Trust me, you will love it!
