Washoku Explorer Kit: #2066: Marutai Hakata Tonkotsu Ramen

The idea is that you can get a nice kit with all the things you need to experience a great bowl of Japanese ramen at home – even the bowl! You can visit Washoku Explorer here. They have all sorts of other Japanese kits – really fascinating and a neat idea!
