[Ishikawaya (石川屋)](https://youtu.be/6JiFlITiZEw) sells super classic and nostalgic chukasoba style shoyu ramen in Atami, one of the most popular beach and onsen cities in Japan. This ramen shop is popular with Atami city locals and tourists alike for its truly nostalgic way of making ramen.
Ishikawaya is run by an an elderly couple, who seem to have been in the ramen making business for quite a while and have honed in on this particular style of ramen. While there are an incredible amount of topping options, the soup base is always the same shoyu ramen soup, combined with very old school thin and lightly curly ramen noodles.
The soup itself is made with a chicken based broth and has a solid soy sauce flavor, that is a bit on the sweeter side. You can also clearly taste some ginger aroma in the background. The flavor as well as the experience itself are very nostalgic and kind of old fashioned, so be aware of this and don’t expect something like the high end shoyu ramen in Tokyo.

My favorite kind of ramen is shoyu! So simple and yummy!
