Misoya: The Most Popular Ramen in Nagano City
Misoya (みそ家) is the most famous and popular ramen shop in Nagano city, just across the street of Nagano station. A must visit for all ramen fans making a stop in Nagano city.
Misoya is serving a miso ramen made with the famous local “Shinshu Miso” of Nagano, which has fans all over Japan. The shop only serves miso ramen, but offers variety as you can get spicy miso or miso tsukemen versions.
Compared to the more famous Sapporo miso ramen, the miso ramen of Nagano is significantly lighter. It lacks the thick layer of lard that makes Sapporo miso ramen so rich. The miso at Misoya is mixed with sprouts and onions, then wok fried before everything gets added to the broth, to combine into a delectable miso ramen soup.
Another highlight are the optional stone ground wheat flour noodles, which have a very “whole wheat” taste to them, which I mainly know from German dark whole wheat breads. Very interesting and quite rare to find in ramen.
