The Shin-Yokohama Ramen Museum calls itself a museum, which is basically just an excuse to charge an admission fee. Yes, there’s one small room which outlines the history of ramen, but for the most part this is a food court.
The Cup Noodles Museum might have been one of my bigger disappointments in Tokyo. Maybe that’s on me for being really excited about going to a museum all about Cup Noodles.
If you have any interest in beer and an hour or so to kill, you could certainly do worse than checking out the Kirin Brewery in Yokohama, which is about a half hour train ride from Tokyo.
For one thing, you can’t beat the price: it’s absolutely free, and they give you a bunch of beer to sample.
