Found on Watanabe-dori Street is Fukuoka’s first ever miso-based spicy noodle shop, Hakata Karamiso Tanmen Emo. The shop’s noodle-loving owner set up shop after first spending years tasting his way through the best noodle shops in Japan. The shop offers original noodle dishes made using the shop’s own distinctive spicy miso paste. Its variety of original miso dishes are packed with over six different kinds of vegetables, and you can choose your desired level of spice from a scale of 0-10, so you’re sure to find something you like even if you don’t like spicy foods. Their dishes really stand out more for their delicious flavor more than their spiciness, and they even have a faint yet noticeable sweet aftertaste as well. Add all your favorite toppings to create your own original personalized spicy noodles! They also offer a wide selection of extra-spicy menu items which, although spicy, are so delicious that they will have you hooked in no time. Be sure to stop by and give them a try!
