Kappa Sushi Introduces Ginza Kagari's Chicken Paitan Ramen
Kappa Sushi, a part of the Colowide Group and headquartered in Yokohama, Kanagawa, is set to launch its 36th installment of the "Authentic Ramen Series" featuring the rich chicken paitan ramen from the celebrated restaurant Ginza Kagari. Starting from July 23, 2026, customers can experience the exquisite flavors of this ramen for just 490 yen (tax included) at Kappa Sushi locations nationwide.
Located in a back alley of Ginza, Ginza Kagari is a renowned chicken paitan ramen shop that has been charming customers with its innovative bowls since it opened in 2013. This beloved establishment has played a pivotal role in the rise of the chicken paitan trend and has a diverse menu available in English and Chinese, making it popular among tourists from abroad. At Ginza Kagari, a luxurious bowl with truffles can cost upwards of 3,000 yen, which makes the opportunity to enjoy this quality at Kappa Sushi an enticing offer.
The "Authentic Ramen Series" by Kappa Sushi is built on the premise of making famous restaurant flavors accessible to more customers. The upcoming chicken paitan ramen is made using a clear and rich broth crafted meticulously from chicken bones and meat, layered with chicken oil, accompanied by cream and sugar for a rich yet refreshing taste that concludes in a clean finish.
To capture the visual appeal of Ginza Kagari, the ramen is topped with a vibrant assortment of vegetables, including fried pumpkin, red bell pepper, broccoli, and green onions, ensuring that the rich broth perfectly clings to Kappa Sushi's original fine noodles.
What sets this dish apart further is the exciting flavor transformation as you enjoy it. When topped with Ginza Kagari’s special shrimp sauce, the broth's flavor deepens as the sauce is gradually integrated, allowing for two distinct tasting experiences in a single bowl. Additionally, customers are encouraged to try the "Oishari" and "Oivegetable" side dishes to enjoy every drop of broth by transforming remnants into a delicious donburi or by dipping the vegetables into the shrimp sauce for enhanced flavor.
Kappa Sushi continues to aspire to create delightful dining experiences, ensuring every visit is filled with anticipation and enjoyment.
