It's a wrap! 5 Prefectures, 15 Towns, 25 bowls of #Ramens in 8 days. Met tons of people with passion! What an awesome inspired trip it is! Now I'm ready to bring the passion back to #TwinCites! #Inspiration #Foodcoma #MNChef #PeaceOut (at 羽田空港 Tokyo International Airport (Haneda Airport))

Great find in Haneda International Airport! Rokurisha (#六厘舍) Tsukeman (#つけ麺) located in the gate! Their thick noodles was perfect chewiness, and the dipping Tonkotsu broth was strong in smoky bonito flavor. #luckyfind #羽田空港国際線 (at 六厘舎 羽田空港国際線ターミナル)
