    Himawari is the creator of Morumen, Asahikawa's famous hormone ramen. The kitchen braises domestic pork offal until meltingly tender before stir-frying it in woks with onions, cabbage, and red chili paste. Poured over a rich pork-chicken and seafood double broth with low-hydration noodles, the soup delivers hearty warmth that sustains locals through frigid northern winters.
