Why it is on this site

It is hands-on: you choose the dough and cutting blade at a three-generation noodle maker, then cook in a family kitchen — the listing includes the meal and a sparkling plum-wine toast.
It is ramen from the other side of the counter: you make the noodles yourself and cook the meal, rather than queue for a bowl.
