Mensyoku Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo, President: Makoto Nakahara), which operates various restaurant businesses domestically and internationally, including "Kitakata Ramen Bannai," will grandly open the "Kitakata Ramen Bannai Sakura Terasaki Store" on Friday, May 1, 2026.
"Kitakata Ramen Bannai" is a national chain that inherits the food culture of "Bannai Shokudo" in Kitakata City, Fukushima Prefecture, which is said to be one of the three great original Kitakata ramen shops. Since its founding in 1988, we have been particular about being "handmade" and "freshly made," preserving the traditional trinity of noodles, roasted pork, and soup, and expanding both domestically and internationally.
The Sakura Terasaki store offers counter seats where you can easily dine alone, and table seats perfect for dining with friends or family, providing a convenient interior regardless of the situation. A spacious parking lot is also available, so please feel free to drop by.
Under the concept of "a taste you won't get tired of eating every day," we serve our dishes with the desire for you to "eat to your heart's content"—a value we have cherished since our founding. This includes our light yet rich soup, our wide flat curly noodles that are hand-crumpled before boiling to create a unique curl and excellent texture, and our homemade, melt-in-your-mouth roasted pork (chashu). Please enjoy the "comforting" taste that satisfies both body and soul at our restaurant.

■ Bannai's Commitment
The noodles use an original blend of wheat flour with high water content, giving them a chewy texture. After aging, a unique "curl" is added, and by intertwining well with the soup, a blissful taste spreads with every bite. The roasted pork is Bannai's pride. Perfected through years of trial and error, the homemade roasted pork melts fat and juicy meat flavors into the soup. Cut to an exquisite thickness, it brings a rich sense of happiness and satisfaction the moment you eat it. The clear, rich soup is the crucial foundation that brings the noodles and roasted pork together. Made using only pork bones to create a clear soup without off-flavors, it is simple yet packed with skilled craftsmanship and love. Bannai's ramen is completed as the ultimate bowl through the exquisite harmony of noodles, roasted pork, and soup.
■ Recommended Menu
Yakibuta Ramen: The undisputed No.1 menu item! A bowl full of handmade, melt-in-your-mouth roasted pork (chashu) piled high so you can't even see the noodles.
Negi Ramen: Finely shredded green onions mixed with a special spicy sauce pair perfectly with the soup. A popular product reverse-imported from "Bannai Shokudo."
Wafu Hiyashi Ramen: Unique to Aizu! When you think of cold Kitakata ramen, this is it. The cold bonito broth soup is highly popular.
