Horse Meat Ramen

Glossy horse meat chashu rests in a clear soy sauce-based soup. The savory umami of the tender horse meat melts into the broth, creating a flavor that is light yet profound—this is Nagai City's soul food, Horse Meat Ramen. In Nagai, located in the Okitama region, a culture of eating horse sashimi and horse meat has been established since ancient times. Horse meat is affectionately known as 'Sakura-niku' (cherry meat). It is said that after the war, as the demand for military horses ceased and horse meat became more readily available, it began to be used as a topping for ramen. With a richness and flavor unique to horse meat that differs from pork or chicken, please come and taste this pride of Nagai—a bowl you can only encounter in this town of horse meat culture.
