    Kirin Ramen stands along Route 156 near JR Hayashi Station in Takaoka. The long-running roadside eatery is famous for its hearty katsu curry ramen, which layers piping-hot Japanese pork curry and a freshly fried panko-crusted pork cutlet over yellow curly noodles in light savory broth. A fried sunny-side egg crowns each cutlet.
