Studying in Fukuoka

Ask Chika-sensei, and she’d tell you Fukuoka serves the best ramen in Japan. It is the biggest city in Kyushu, Japan. Voted number 14 in 2010’s poll of the world’s most liveable cities, Fukuoka is praised for its green spaces in a metropolitan setting.

It is also the birthplace of Ayumi Hamasaki, Ringo Shiina, Chage & Aska, Misia, and Yui. What do they put in those ramen?
