About Neoguri Brand Character "Neoguri-kun"

"Neoguri-kun," which means "tanuki" (raccoon dog) in Japanese, is a character with a warm sensibility and a strong craftsman's spirit for ramen. While passionate, he also has a sentimental side, sometimes contemplating the sorrows of life. Neoguri-kun, who is more serious about ramen than anyone else, runs his own ramen shop based on the belief that "the core of ramen lies in thick, chewy noodles and a deep broth." In addition to interacting directly with his friends, he takes on all sorts of challenges with ramen, such as creating new recipes that combine global gourmet cuisine with his own chewy noodles.
