E.A.K. Ramen aka Machida Shoten in Japan, started back in 2008 in Machida City, Japan. This was our first shop to fulfill our goal to spread the IEKEI style of ramen to the world.
Our broth use only natural chicken and pork bones and we take 18 hours of love and care to prep, boil, cook, stir, and perfect the broth. Our noodles are custom made for us using our own distinct formula that no one else uses. It is thick, bold and straight,Our fare recipe is known only by the owner himself, and is a close kept secret to keep our flavor from changingSpread the love, Spread IEKEI.
E.A.K. Ramen was born from our philosophy of wanting to spread IEKEI style of ramen to the world. In Japan, we are known as Machida Shoten as well as many other names within the IEKEI style of ramen world. We have direct outlets as well as franchises that cover a large part of Japan that add up to roughly 400 stores. Internationally, we have presences in Singapore, Taiwan, Philippines, Italy, China, and Thailand.
However, after capturing a major portion of tine Japanese IEKEI market, we decided that it was about time to cross the ocean and make our mark in fine US market. Up until now, theUS has been introduced to a limited amount of ramen styles and some stares did try to make an IEKEI style but fell short, We saw an opportunity to spread the wonderful IEKEI style of Ramen and branded our style asE-A-K for the phonetic pronunciation of IEKEI style.
