This is a list of notable ramen dishes. Ramen is a Japanese dish that consists of Chinese-style wheat noodles served in a meat or (occasionally) fish-based broth, often flavored with soy sauce or miso. Ramen dishes often include toppings such as sliced pork (チャーシュー, chāshū), dried seaweed (海苔, nori), fermented bamboo shoots (メンマ, menma), and green onions (葱, negi). Nearly every region in Japan has its own variation of ramen. Ramen shops (ラーメン屋, ramen-ya) are restaurants that specialize in ramen dishes.
