History of Ramen!

Ramen originated from China. Chinese restaurant in the Canton region started selling this type of noodle fresh. Noodles were made by hands and served with pork bone broth and seafood. Gyoza (popstickers) or jiaozi in Chinese are served along with the Ramen.


Post World war two, troops who returned to Japan and opened Chinese restaurants because many had become accustomed to Chinese food due to the occupation of China. This is when Ramen started to become popular in Japan. However the instant form of the noodle did not start until 1958 when Nissin started packaging dried ramen noodles so everyone at home can enjoy the delicious noodles.


Today in Japan, Ramen is highly popular to school kids. Students regularly go to Ramen shops to enjoy a quick lunch. Also, the packaged versions are also highly popular due to the cheap price. College students are always stereotyped as regular ramen consumers.....
