Sen no Kaze is a Kyoto-style ramen specialist serving a clear chicken and vegetable broth that contrasts with the richer pork-based styles from Fukuoka and Tokyo. The broth is simmered for several hours without MSG additions, resulting in a clean, savoury base that showcases the local preference for subtlety over intensity. Noodles are thin and straight; toppings are minimal.
The restaurant is popular with local office workers at lunch and occupies a quiet side street off the main Kawaramachi shopping corridor.
