Menya Yukikaze Susukino
麺屋 雪風 すすきの店
Overview
Menya Yukikaze Susukino Branch, located in the heart of Susukino's entertainment district, a 5-10 minute walk from Susukino Station. It's a popular ramen shop, selected for the Ramen HOKKAIDO Hyakumeiten (Top 100 Ramen Shops in Hokkaido), and the first name that comes to mind when mentioning miso ramen in Susukino. A large queue of over 50 people is a common sight in the evenings, making it a central miso ramen destination in Sapporo. Its greatest feature is the rich soup, a unique blend of three types of miso combined with tonkotsu (pork bone), tori-gara (chicken bone), sababushi (dried mackerel flakes), and tori-paitan (creamy chicken broth). This results in a distinctive finish that is subtly sweet, balancing umami and richness. The signature Noko Miso Ramen (Rich Miso Ramen) at 1200 yen features a mellow and rich composition based on tori-paitan (creamy chicken broth) blended with miso, garnering attention as a modern reinterpretation rather than a traditional Sapporo miso ramen. It has a strong viscosity that perfectly coats the noodles, with the mellow tori-paitan (creamy chicken broth) subtly overshadowing the miso, creating a unique balance. The noodles are Nishiyama Seimen's yellow, medium-thick, wavy noodles, known for their strong chewiness, firm elasticity, and delicious texture. The toppings are a luxurious lineup: plenty of white spring onions, a little fried onion, tender and generous chashu (sliced pork), minced meat, kikurage (wood ear mushrooms) (an unusual addition for Sapporo miso ramen), and ajitama (seasoned egg). The kikurage, in particular, are thick and large, a delightful element for those who enjoy them. In addition to the signature Rich Miso, the menu offers a wide range of options including Miso Ramen (1000 yen), Spicy Miso Ramen, Shoyu (soy sauce), and Shio (salt), attracting many repeat customers who enjoy comparing different flavors. You can also enjoy classic Sapporo-style arrangements with toppings like butter and corn. Operating until late at night (until 4 AM on Fridays and Saturdays, and until 3 AM from Monday to Thursday), it's a popular spot for shime-ramen (ramen as the final meal) after drinks in Susukino. The gyoza (dumplings) on the side are also popular, with many customers ordering them as a set with ramen. The ordering method is unique: there are two queues outside the store, one for "waiting for meal tickets" and one for "waiting for entry." First, customers queue for meal tickets, are called, purchase a meal ticket from the vending machine at the entrance, and then join the queue for entry. The shop is fully cashless (accepting cash, credit cards, e-money, and QR code payments), designed to be easily accessible for international travelers.
How to Order
1Before Entering
This famous rich Miso Ramen shop, selected as one of Hokkaido's Top 100 Ramen restaurants, is located in the heart of the Susukino entertainment district, about a 5-10 minute walk from Susukino Station. Operating hours vary by day (Mon 11:00-14:00/18:00-03:00, Tue-Thu 11:00-14:30/18:00-03:00, Fri-Sat 11:00-14:30/18:00-04:00, Sun 11:00-14:30/18:00-00:30, Holidays 11:00-14:00) and extends late into the night. It's a popular spot often named first when thinking of Miso Ramen in Susukino, and long lines of over 50 people are common at night. Even after 10 PM or midnight, a wait of 4-10 people can occur. On the other hand, there are times during weekday lunch openings or after the afternoon peak when you can enter without a wait or with a short wait. A wait of around 30 minutes is typical.
2Purchase Meal Ticket (Unique Two-Line System)
There is a unique system with two lines outside the shop: a "meal ticket waiting line (road side)" and an "entry waiting line (shop side)". First, queue in the meal ticket waiting line, and when your turn comes, purchase your meal ticket from the vending machine near the entrance, then proceed to queue in the entry waiting line. Signature items include Rich Miso Ramen for 1200 yen (most popular), Miso Ramen for 1000 yen, Spicy Miso Ramen, Shoyu (soy sauce), Shio (salt), Ajitama (seasoned egg), Negi (green onion) and Kikurage (wood ear mushroom) toppings, Half Ramen (small portion), Gyoza, and Sapporo Classic canned beer. Cashless payments are accepted, offering a wide range of payment options (cash, credit card, e-money, and QR code payments are all supported).
3Seating and Receiving Your Order
The cozy interior has only 12 counter seats. Customers are guided to available seats in order, and it takes approximately 5-10 minutes for your order to be served.
4Other Information
This popular shop is renowned as one of the "Ramen HOKKAIDO Top 100" and is often the first name mentioned for Miso Ramen in Susukino. Its greatest feature is the rich soup, a blend of three types of miso with tonkotsu (pork bone), torigara (chicken bone), sababushi (dried mackerel flakes), and toripaitan (chicken paitan), crafted to be moderately sweet with a balance of umami and robust flavor. The signature Rich Miso Ramen (1200 yen) is a mellow and rich composition based on toripaitan blended with miso, more of a modern reinterpretation of Miso Ramen than a traditional Sapporo Miso Ramen. It has a strong thickness that coats the noodles exceptionally well. The noodles are medium-thick, yellow, curly noodles from Nishiyama Seimen, known for their firm bite, springy elasticity, and delicious chewiness. The generous toppings include plenty of white green onions, a little fried onion, tender and rewarding chashu (braised pork), minced meat, kikurage (wood ear mushroom, unusual for Sapporo Miso), and ajitama (seasoned egg), forming a luxurious combination. The kikurage, in particular, is thick and large, a delightful element for those who enjoy it. You can also enjoy Sapporo-style arrangements with added toppings like butter and corn. Since it operates until late at night, it's a classic spot for a post-drinking ramen in Susukino. Full cashless payment support and consideration for inbound tourists make it easily accessible for visitors.

Miso Mendokoro Tasakaya (Ikebukuro): Navigating the Japanese-Only Ticket Machine and a Review of its Robust Miso Ramen
Miso Mendokoro Tasakaya, a miso ramen specialist located in Nishi-Ikebukuro, is just about a 5-minute walk from Ikebukuro Station's West Exit. This shop is known for its hearty miso ramen: a thick, rich, slightly sweet miso broth, firm thick noodles, melt-in-your-mouth chashu, and a towering pile of crisp bean sprouts (moyashi) – a truly robust and voluminous bowl. The menu features four main series: Miso Ramen, Kara-Miso Ramen (spicy miso), Aemen (a brothless mixed noodle dish), and IWGP Geki-Kara Ramen (extra hot). This guide, based on our visit on Friday, May 22, 2026 (arrived at 6:39 PM with a 13-person queue), provides photos and tips for first-time visitors to Japan. We'll cover how to navigate the Japanese-only, no-photo ticket vending machine using a color guide, understand the queuing situation (only 9 counter seats and long noodle cooking times mean slower turnover), tips to avoid crowds, and the cash-only payment policy.

Ramen Jiro "Kabuji" (Shinjuku-Kabukicho): The Complete Guide to Jiro Calls and Timing
Just a 1-minute walk from Seibu-Shinjuku Station North Exit, Ramen Jiro Shinjuku-Kabukicho, affectionately known as Kabuji (a nickname combining Kabukicho + Jiro), is the fourth oldest chokkei (direct-lineage) shop of the Ramen Jiro chain. Its late-night hours from 11:30 AM to 2:30 AM (Mon, Tue, Thu-Sun, closed Wed) are a unique advantage among chokkei shops, making it ideal for combining with Kabukicho sightseeing or as a late-night ramen after drinks. With its semi-emulsified pork-bone shoyu broth, homemade flat thick wavy noodles, unique call (shouted topping order ritual) culture (Ninniku (raw grated garlic), Yasai (boiled bean sprouts on top), Abura (solid back fat for richness), Karame (extra soy tare for stronger salty taste), Mashi (more, about 1.5×), Sukuname (less, about half)), the chokkei system of ticket-folding (a wordless system to request firmer or softer noodles by folding the meal ticket) to specify noodle hardness, lot system (a Jiro-specific eating rhythm where the same batch of customers finish together) manners, and specific rules (no phone calls, no photography except ramen, no drunken entry), this article provides a complete guide based on our visit on May 15, 2026, where we ordered a Small Ramen (¥950) with the call 'Ninniku Sukuname, Yasai, Abura'.
