MEN-EIJI HIRAGISHI BASE
Renowned ramen shop recognized by Michelin Bib Gourmand, specializing in Hokkaido’s local ingredients.
MEN-EIJI HIRAGISHI BASE is a celebrated ramen spot in Sapporo whose popularity has never waned since its opening in 2006. It has also been featured in the Michelin Guide's Bib Gourmand.
Their ramen is defined by house-made noodles crafted from locally grown Hokkaido wheat, boasting a delightful chewy texture, paired with flavorful broth prepared entirely without artificial additives. The menu offers a diverse selection, including miso ramen made generously with local ingredients and thick tsukemen noodles served with a rich seafood broth.
The must-try dish is their signature Seafood Tonkotsu Shoyu Ramen, where rich pork-bone broth beautifully blends with flavorful seafood such as horse mackerel, sardines, and bonito flakes, creating exceptional depth. This ramen is topped with a refreshing yuzu jelly that gradually melts into the soup, bringing aromatic freshness and evolving complexity with each bite.
Though tucked away in a quiet residential neighborhood slightly removed from the station, this popular spot often has lines forming outside—so be sure to allow plenty of time for your visit.
