MEET OUR GUIDES
Meet the ramen guide team! Get to know us better below. Naturally, each of us loves ramen!
Frank
Favorite style of ramen: SHIO
Frank is a Filipino American and Tokyo native obsessed with ramen...to the point of eating it every day. To Frank, ramen is the ultimate soul food, with his favorite style being shio ramen.
When Frank isn't eating ramen, he loves to travel, curl up with a good book, or attempt at staying in shape. He's also a huge fan of Lord of the Rings and Star Trek. For Gondor!
Nick
Favorite style of ramen: SHOYU
Nick's Japan adventure started in 1993 in Kyoto, and like many, he assumed it would be for "a couple years". In 2023, exactly 30 years to the month, he returned to Japan as life goes full circle in more ways than just one!
He greatly enjoys meeting people from all over the world and showing them a little of his favorite comfort food, ramen. His interests range from sports (cricket) to photography and karaoke (for the brave souls who can suffer him butchering some classics).
