School/training facility
We offer comprehensive courses on ramen, udon, and soba noodles at our HQ office in Kagawa, Tokyo office, and Singapore branch every month. Our schools are tailored to existing and prospective business owners (restaurateur, noodle factories etc.), and teach everything from production of various types of noodles and soups from scratch, to menu development, to operation and management of restaurants.
Besides, once our student – always our graduate: alumni are able to consult with instructors even after completion of the course.
Lecture room, training facility
The teaching/training facility offers all necessary equipment for production of noodles (i.e. dough mixers, noodle making machines, dough aging machines, etc.) , as well as cooking soups/broths, motodare sauces, flavor oils, toppings, garnishes and complete noodle dishes.
For example, for soup production, it uses induction cookers, which make working conditions better than if using gas-powered appliances. A variety of well-thought equipment help optimize working and learning environment for students.
A group of experienced instructors/teachers
Our instructors have different and unique backgrounds which allows our School to offer students with different and diverse insights and perspectives on noodles and ramen, udon, and soba restaurant business.
Our noodle schools are unique because we make everything from scratch, and teach not only ready recipes but fundamental knowledge on noodle cuisine as well, empowering students to use it for development of new original recipes and menus.

The factory caters to particular specifications of noodles they want to use (size, hydration, ingredients, length, portion size, etc.) It also produces soba noodles using new harvest of buckwheat flours that are top of the quality for retail. There’s also a section dedicated to production of quality udon broths, ramen tare, oils, and others that are made of quality ingredients.

Our engineers and factory workers, some of whom have over a few decades of experience, design and manufacture each unit of equipment to the customers’ order and preferences (noodle specs). We test all machines by actually making noodles on them to ensure that they are capable of producing noodles to the customers’ specifications, and the noodles are of the best quality.
