Why is Japanese ramen popular in China, but Lanzhou ramen has no market in Japan?

Lanzhou Ramen is now a very popular specialty noodle dish in our country. In just a few years, Lanzhou Ramen shops can be said to have become popular all over the country. There are already more than 100 restaurants in China. Wanjia's branches are still "expanding". Due to its low prices and rich selection of dishes, it has always been people's first choice for dining.

Everyone who has eaten Lanzhou Ramen knows that the menu in the store is very rich. In addition to the signature "Beef Ramen", there are also sliced ??noodles, dry noodles, fried rice and so on. Each one tastes delicious and has its own characteristics. But once out of the country, this kind of "Lanzhou Ramen" is not so popular, and is even on the verge of closing down. Do you know why?

In our neighboring country Japan, ramen is also one of their main delicacies. Moreover, Japanese ramen can be said to be popular all over the world, and Japanese ramen is also spread in our country. For example, there were reports before that a "Lanzhou Ramen" store was going to open in Japan. As a result, the business was very good at the beginning, but it became increasingly bleak later. Because Japanese people don’t like to eat “Lanzhou Ramen”.

First of all, we need to talk about the characteristics of Japanese ramen, as shown in the picture. The soup base of Japanese ramen is always made from pork bones mixed with seafood, which takes a very long time. Therefore, the soup base tastes fragrant and refreshing, with a very smooth feeling. But the soup base of Lanzhou Ramen is increasingly adding flavorings and other seasonings, so the taste cannot be compared.

The second is the rich combination of Japanese ramen, as shown in the picture, not only eggs, but also special barbecued pork, vegetables and even small whitebait, etc. It makes people feel like they are not eating ramen, but more like tasting a rich meal. But the ingredient combination of Lanzhou Ramen is very simple, just a few slices of meat and a handful of chopped green onions.

So, if you try Lanzhou ramen after eating Japanese ramen, you will find that the difference between the two is not only the taste. Japanese ramen emphasizes color, flavor, and nutrition as well as health. However, Lanzhou Ramen is just for the sake of speed, and it no longer has the exquisite taste that it had at the beginning.
