Ramen Tokinoie is one of those cozy ramen places that are open to the early hours of the morning. Being in Susukino, which is the nightlife district of Sapporo, this ramen store is a popular spot for late night revelers after a night out on the town. It can be found just down the street from Rad Brothers and Booty nightclub and is can be identified by the large rooster above the entrance. It is also not a far walk from Nakajima Park. The ramen here is your standard fare but it hits the spot, especially on the way home from town. 

There is mainly counter seating, though there is a small booth for up to six (at a squeeze) at the back of the restaurant. The menu here comes in English as well as Japanese and it pictured so choosing your order is no problem. They have miso ramen, salt ramen and a popular spicy miso ramen! For take away you can get some fried rice or handmade pork slices. The soup here uses Nagoya ‘Cochin’ chicken (hence the chicken above the door) and simmered bringing out its nice flavors. The salt used in its flavors comes from crystallized saltwater from Mongolia.
