What is ebisoba?
Ebi means shrimp in Japanese. Ebisoba Ichigen specialises in ramen that uses shrimp flavour as a defining feature.
For visitors familiar with Sapporo’s miso ramen, shrimp ramen can provide a different experience while remaining part of the city’s wider ramen culture.
Three flavours to look for
The Japanese source lists three varieties on the official menu:
- Ebi shio (えびしお): shrimp ramen with a salt-based seasoning.
- Ebi miso (えびみそ): shrimp ramen with miso seasoning.
- Ebi shoyu (えびしょうゆ): shrimp ramen with soy sauce seasoning.
Menu combinations, toppings and prices may vary. Check the latest options at the shop.
Allergy note: Shrimp is a crustacean shellfish. If you have a shellfish allergy, ask the restaurant directly about ingredients and cross-contact; do not assume other dishes are safe.
