What is “Jinrui Mina Mendo”? Toward a ramen industry where more women can shine
It has become commonplace for women to eat ramen alone, but looking at the Japanese ramen industry, there are many shops where both consumers and workers are dominated by men.
This event is a pop-up store for ramen shops across the country, with the theme being a dojo for the growth of ramen shops run by women across the country.
We will not only raise the profile of local ramen shops by letting more people know about the ramen shops run by female owners that are loved throughout Japan through the information centers of Osaka and Umeda, but also create a ramen industry where more women can shine. It embodies the desire to aim for.
The location is on the 2nd floor of Ippudo Umeda store in Umeda, Osaka.
On the exterior of the store, there is a cool visual that says ``Jinrui Mina Mendo.''
3 organizers
This event was hosted by three people: Takahiro Matsumura, founder of ”Jinrui Mina Menrui” a ramen shop that originated in Osaka that has long lines of customers , Shigemi Kawahara , founder of ”Ippudo”, and Satoko Morimoto, founder of ”Ramen Girl”. We achieved this by working together.
The first one is ”Chuka Soba Sakauchi”, a ramen shop in Sendai run by a mother and daughter who are close friends.
”Chuka Soba Sakauchi” in Wakabayashi Ward, Sendai City, Miyagi Prefecture will be open from the first day ”Jinrui Mina Mendo” opens.
Owner Junko Sakauchi, who originally ran a noodle shop by herself, opened the shop in 2010 after visiting a ramen shop she was doing business with and decided she wanted to make ramen herself.
This Chinese soba restaurant is loved by local customers and is known for its simple and gentle flavor made with carefully prepared Japanese soup stock.
Signature menu items are ”Chinese soba with ginger soy sauce” and ”Chinese soba with back fat Shio”.
