Ramen:Ichiran ラーメン：一蘭

My first ramen in Japan.
My new friend has been here before and took us to the famous Ramen (Noodle shop) near harajuku.

So this is how Ichiran ramen shop works.

1) You choose and pay from this machine that prints out a ticket that shows what u ordered

2)You then go by another machine and pick a seat to choose.
空 means its open and you press the button to sit

3)You then fill out this form on what type of style you want for the noodles. Such as hard, soft. Thick or thin soup base. Hot or not hot. how much garlic you want etc.
 You pass this paper on to the waiter.

4) And the reason why this place is so cool is because you will never see the persons face who is working there. Because as you can see from the image below that we sit by this little booth. And the waiter/waitress will never peek their head out of that box.

 5) You can order on top of your other order if you are still hungry by filling this form out.

 6) They deliver your noodles through the hole and after they close it with this net so we can't see them walking by.

 7) And finally you can enjoy your noodle by yourself in this little cubicle. Weird but cool eh? :D
