Yokohama (Japan), Dec 31 (ANI): This is a famous Ramen Museum in Japan’s Yokohama city. Established in the year 1994, it exhibits the history and evolution of Ramen. Ramen noodles have always played an important role in boosting tourism in Yokohama. Ramen noodles were invented as a fusion meal of Japan and China after Japan became an open economy in 1859. Later, different versions of Ramen started originating in different areas of Japan. There is strong bond between ramen and Yokohama. After 1899 when Japanese authorities barred foreign settlements, authorities recommended the Chinese to become chefs. This accelerated Ramen culture in Japan. In 1910, the first Ramen restaurant “Rairai Ken” was launched. 13 Chinese cooks from Yokohama supported it. During the busy season, some 3,000 customers visit the restaurant to eat ramen. Visitors can even try to make ramen noodle in a traditional way. Bamboo stick is used to prepare ramen noodles. Ramen town is surrounded by Showa era’s atmosphere. Some 1 billion Yen were spent to authentic look to this place. Based on its long and interesting history, Yokohama preserves memory of not only its food culture but social traditions as well.
