About
Hakata Choten traces its roots to a 1937 Fukuoka food stall that pioneered Hakata tonkotsu ramen. The Paris branch on rue des Petits Champs brings that Kyushu tradition to the 1st arrondissement, ladling deeply reduced pork-bone broth into bowls customised with black garlic oil, spicy miso paste, or extra chashu. The space is compact and counter-style, with condiments — sesame, pickled ginger, raw garlic — set out on the table in classic ramen-shop fashion. Crowds of Japanese regulars and in-the-know Parisians routinely queue at the door, testimony to its standing as one of the most authentic bowls of ramen in the city.
