Commercial products are boring!
The experience of making real noodles from zero-based ramen flour
that's the Ramen Slashing Experience!
The soba slashing technique that has been used since the Edo period has been applied to ramen.
The know-how cultivated through the soba-noodle-making experience is incorporated into ramen, which can be made in just 30 minutes!
You can experience an authentic handmade experience without using any machines.
This is the best entertaining noodle-making experience using high-grade domestic flour developed exclusively for ramen!
Just stand in line and eat? The time has come to make and enjoy “My Ramen”.
In this modern age, Japanese ramen can be made commercially or frozen and very tasty.
In addition, major chain restaurants offer delicious ramen at amazing prices.
It is precisely because we live in such an era that we need to go back to the basics and experience making ramen by hand, starting with the noodles.
That is, “soup is made by feel, noodles are made by science.”
Even if you study, soup making is something that is cultivated with time, effort, and experience, and cannot be imitated.
It is something that cannot be imitated. It requires a tongue that you were born with and a sense of taste that you cultivated in your childhood.
However, noodle making is different.
SOBAGIRI RAKUJYO is a store where you can experience such science in just 30 minutes.
Why Choose RAKUJYO
No.1 Specially made for exclusive use! Tools to help you make your handmade
Craftsmanship involves a great deal of enjoyment in using tools. We support our customers’ noodle making by selecting appropriate tools and, if none are available, making our own tools.
No. 2 Techniques that are designed for kids to make
A technique that can be done by children can be enjoyed by adults. Instead of a formula designed to be used with a machine, a newly developed formula and technique specially developed for handmade products can be enjoyed by men and women of all ages.
No.3 Bright, open and clean space
We don’t want the experience to take place in a dark, cramped, powder-filled workshop located in the back of the store. You want a pleasant experience in a brightly lit atrium space designed specifically for the experience!
These three rules are what make the food fun,
enjoyable, and delicious.
Come on, let's go!

Ramen Flavor
This is Rakujyo’s original and advanced system that allows you to make your own noodles and dine on them with the flavor of your choice.
Please choose to your heart’s content.
You will also be responsible for arranging the ingredients for the ramen yourself.
Classic Soy Sauce Ramen
The soup is made mainly from chicken bones, with bonito flakes, kelp, vegetables and a secret ingredient: a ramen soup that is a classic that anyone can enjoy.
Aged Miso Ramen
Red miso, white miso and a secret ingredient give it richness, and the complex flavour of the blend of the most numerous ingredients is left to rest for a mellow taste.
Salt Ramen
The chicken bone-based sauce has a tendency to be sharp, but the salty sauce has been mellowed out, and the refreshing citrus flavor makes it an exquisite soup that you’ll want to drink down in one gulp.
Soy-milk Tonkotsu Ramen
Tonkotsu soup can easily become heavy when diluted with chicken broth, so we dilute it with soy milk to give it a creamy, rich flavor.
Soy-milk Soup Curry（for Vigan）
The soup is made with plenty of vegetables and seasoned with a hint of curry powder. The soy milk base gives it a mellow flavor, and the topping vegetables really stand out.
Wakame Ramen（for Vigan）
A soothing drink made with kelp stock and tamari soy sauce, with the aroma of the seaweed spreading out softly. The mellowness is enhanced by the addition of sesame seeds.
Asari Shijimi Ramen
The soup stock is made from fresh shijimi clams and topped with steamed clams in sake. The umami of the succinic acid from the shellfish combines with the butter to create a bowl that you’ll want to drink down to the last drop.
【Please note】If there are more than three people, we ask that you limit the number of flavors to two. We would appreciate it if you could cooperate with us as it is necessary for us to serve the food quickly with a minimum staff.
【Please note】On weekends and holidays, especially during lunch hours, we ask that you leave the table after about 30 minutes to allow time for the next customer to enjoy his/her meal.
Ramen Slashing Experience FAQ
- Can I experience this with my child?
Of course. We view this as a food education program where you can learn the hard work of making things and the steps of food preparation by experiencing it with your children. We believe that it is important for children to simply enjoy the experience.
- How many people can experience the program at the same time?
This plan is called the Private Plan, and up to 6 people can apply for this plan at the same time. For more than 6 people, the price will be 6,500 yen per person for the Team Building Plan.
- Can I do ramen and my friend do soba?
The process seems similar, but is quite different due to the characteristics of wheat and buckwheat flours. We do not offer a mixed experience because each requires time to explain the process, which is time consuming and interminable.
- Do you also make soup?
No, we believe that soup making is not something that people teach you. It is a place where you work hard in solitude. The broth is taken from a variety of ingredients for several days in advance, so it cannot be mastered in a one-hour experience.
- Don't you age the dough?
There is no time for aging in the experience. The noodles are not made by machine, which is a method to squeeze out as much water as possible, but by human power to knead them. The result is a very smooth noodle that is unlike anything you have ever experienced before.
- Will a school-like certificate be issued?
Our store is a hands-on store and should be considered a fun activity to experience. We hope to inspire you to want to learn in earnest. We do issue cards for more casual workshops.
