For a true taste of Tokushima's local soul food, you have to visit Inotani, a city institution famous for inventing Tokushima-style ramen when they opened in 1966. The rich and savory pork-based broth is unforgettable, especially when you add the classic raw egg topping that gently cooks in the heat of your bowl. It's a no-nonsense spot where you order from a vending machine, grab a seat at the counter, and prepare for a deeply satisfying meal that locals have cherished for decades.
