About this spot
Ramen Shingen is one of Sapporo Station's top-rated ramen spots — the kind of place where you can hear the slurping before you walk in. Every bowl is made with the obsessive attention to detail that Tokyo ramen is famous for.
💡 Tips before you go
- Look for the ticket machine (券売機) right inside the door. Insert cash, pick your bowl, hand the ticket to staff.
- The top-left button is usually the signature bowl. When in doubt, press that.
- Add ajitama (seasoned egg, ~¥150) — it's basically mandatory.
- Slurping is expected and appreciated. It cools the noodles.
