It's a one-hour wait to get into Ippudo for a bowl of ramen. That's a relatively short time when you consider that the noodles are coming from Japan's "Ramen King."
Chef Shigemi Kawahara was the champion of TV Tokyo's national ramen competition three times in a row from 1995-1998. The competition tests the skills of ramen experts from all over the nation.
In 2005, Kawahara earned the first official title of "Ramen King" on a TBS program “Ramen King Championship.”
