    Located in Kurume, the historical birthplace of tonkotsu ramen, Honda Shoten safeguards the traditional yobimodoshi cauldron brewing technique. Master cauldrons are continuously fed with fresh pork bones and seasoned stock without ever being fully emptied, developing an intense, bone-marrow pungency and velvet viscosity paired with straight thin wheat noodles.
