Nagoya ramen "Fuji Ichiban" (https://fujiichiban.jp/) will present a "Topping Free Pass" that allows one free ramen topping per visit to the first 5,000 customers nationwide on "Fujiichi Day," the 21st of every month from July to December 2026. Additionally, on July 21st (Tue), shortly after summer vacation begins for many schools, Fuji Ichiban will offer a special dessert gift for children visiting the store, in addition to the Fujiichi Day present, to celebrate the start of a fun summer vacation. Furthermore, starting July 24th (Fri), a special summer campaign "Natsu no Fujiichi Sai" (Summer Fuji Ichiban Festival) will be held, featuring a 50 yen discount on gyoza, dessert gifts for children, and more.

As part of the "Natsu no Fujiichi Sai," the hearty "Fujibuta Series" will offer a free upgrade to the new "Washi Washi Futomen" (thick, chewy noodles) for a limited time, which was just introduced this spring and normally costs an additional 110 yen (tax included).

The Fujiichi Day starting in July 2026 offers a topping free pass for one free topping per visit until its expiration date. On July 21st (Tue), a special children's gift will be given to commemorate the start of summer vacation.

"Fujiichi Day" Every 21st of the Month July-December 2026: First 5,000 customers nationwide each day receive a topping free pass.

Fuji Ichiban designates the 21st of every month as "Fujiichi Day" and implements half-year planning. For the second half of 2026, Fujiichi Day will feature the presentation of a new design "Topping Free Pass" sticker.

By presenting the Topping Free Pass, customers can add one ramen topping (up to 130 yen including tax) for free, any number of times, until the end of December 2027. Popular toppings such as seasoned boiled eggs and green onions are eligible. Unlike typical limited-time coupons, this pass can be used over a long period, allowing customers to enjoy creating their favorite ramen bowls.
