Every fan should know that Naruto loves ramen and his favourite hangout location in the anime has always been none other than Ramen Ichiraku. Now you can be like Naruto too, enjoying ramen in a Ramen Ichiraku-esque restaurant in Shanghai, China. It is the first ever officially-authorized Naruto-inspired ramen restaurant in the world.
Last Saturday, the world's first officially authorized Ichiraku Ramen – of #NARUTO fame – opened in Shanghai’s Global Harbor, a large shopping mall in Putuo district. The eatery attracted lots of anime and manga fans who lined up outside to try the famous fictional ramen. pic.twitter.com/MSUBaUlfoW

It’s not just the ramen that looks the same like in the anime. The overall design and decorations of the restaurant really make it look like a real-life version of Ramen Ichiraku, not to mention that it’s creatively filled with plenty of Naruto stuffs as well. It’s like a dream come true if you’re a huge Naruto fan.
As far as we know, the prices of these delicious-looking ramen range from around 39 yuan (about RM24) to 65 yuan (about RM40). If you’re wondering whether it’s legit, it’s a licensed and officially-authorized restaurant so just keep calm and enjoy your ramen. It’s located on floor B2 of Shanghai Global Harbor, a huge shopping mall (close to Exit 2 of Jinshajiang Road Station, Metro Line 3/4/13) in the district of Putuo. Business hours start from 10.30am until 9.30pm.
If you are one of those huge Naruto fans planning to visit China in the future, do seize the precious chance to visit this restaurant. Well, I’ll definitely visit in the future. How about you?
