Nishinakasu Miyama (西中洲 御山), a specialty ultra-rich oyster paitan ramen restaurant in Fukuoka's Chuo Ward, began offering handmade obanzai (traditional Japanese-style side dishes) starting in March 2026. Located on the 3rd floor of the TRN Fukuoka Nishinakasu building, the restaurant operates from 11:00 AM to 10:00 PM with no afternoon break—making it a flexible hideaway for a late lunch or an early dinner.
New Menu: Handmade Obanzai
Having built a loyal following for its ultra-rich oyster paitan ramen, Nishinakasu Miyama now complements the dining experience with carefully crafted obanzai. These homemade side dishes are designed to be enjoyed while waiting for ramen, as accompaniments to drinks, or simply as an extra bite alongside a meal.
Sample obanzai offerings include:
- Potato salad
- Oden
- German potato
- Nukazuke (rice bran pickles)
- Komatsuna and jako stir-fry
- Crispy bell peppers
- Grilled fish
- Squid shumai
Menu items may vary depending on the season and ingredient availability.
New Ways to Enjoy Nishinakasu Miyama
All-Day Dining, No Afternoon Break
The restaurant is open from 11:00 AM to 10:00 PM without an afternoon break. Guests can stop by for a late lunch to avoid the midday rush, or drop in for an early dinner in the late afternoon—on their own schedule.
Daytime Senbero Set
A daytime "senbero" drinking set is also available, pairing affordable drinks with the handmade obanzai—a relaxed way to enjoy a midday indulgence.

Signature Menu: Ultra-Rich Oyster Paitan Ramen
Ultra-Rich Oyster Paitan Ramen (¥1,680)
The kitchen carefully selects high-quality oysters from sources such as Itoshima in Fukuoka Prefecture and Ishinomaki in Miyagi Prefecture, rotating by season. The resulting broth is dense, creamy, and remarkably clean in flavor—essentially "drinking oysters" elevated into a bowl of ramen. Every sip carries a wave of ocean aroma and deep umami.
