Ide Shoten is a famous Wakayama ramen shop, located a short walk from JR Wakayama Station. Known for its rich tonkotsu-shoyu (pork bone soy sauce) broth, this popular spot often has a line, but the quick service keeps things moving. The ramen features thin noodles and tender pork slices. Don't miss the chance to try the local specialty, haya-zushi (mackerel sushi), as a side. Be prepared for a small, cozy interior and a distinctive pork aroma. It's best to visit during off-peak hours to avoid long waits.
