Story
----------------------------------
Some decades ago now, there sat a small, unassuming ramen shop in a tiny town in Japan.
It seemed like it had been there forever, but its origins are quite peculiar, indeed.
Much abbreviated, this is how it goes…

A stubborn old man who—to hear the townsfolk tell it—never cracked a smile married the nicest, most amiable woman you could ever hope to meet, and together they opened a restaurant. The two made a formidable team; their eatery soon became a fixture in town, and seemed destined to become an institution. That is, until the old man turned to his wife one day and said…

Y’know, I’ve been thinkin’…

Such was the beginning of his pitch to turn their humble establishment into a ramen shop.
His wife was taken aback, but after a moment’s pause, merely smiled back at him.

What a lovely idea. I’ll help however I can.

For you see, they’d always shared a quiet regret between them. One rarely spoken, but ever-present—a knot in their shoulders they could never massage away.
An unfulfilled promise.
A dream deferred.


This is the story of their reinvention.
