Ramen has always been a staple of daily life and casual conversation in Japan. It's common to overhear people on the streets discussing topics like 'a new ramen shop just opened' or 'the taste and quality of that ramen place changed.' The importance of ramen in the everyday diet and culture of the Japanese is evident. In recent years, Taiwan has also seen a surge in ramen fever, with many local ramen shops featuring regional specialties opening one after another. Now, the Tokyo-style "Setagaya Ramen Setagaya-ya" has joined the fray, officially beginning soft operations on March 9, ready to conquer the Taiwanese ramen market.

Setagaya Ramen has been in operation for 15 years in Japan and already has numerous branches. In 2014, Setagaya Ramen set up a booth at Tokyo Crazy Kawaii in Taiwan, where its rich pork bone soy sauce broth won over consumers, laying the foundation for its plans to expand to Taiwan. The first Taiwanese branch is located at No. 15, Lane 27, Lane 216, Zhongxiao East Road, Section 4, Da’an District, Taipei, and began soft operations at 11:00 AM on March 9, with the official opening on March 24.
