Hakata Ramen is a local ramen dish that features thin noodles in a thick, creamy tonkotsu soup, topped with slices of chashu, pickled ginger and lots of sesame seeds. Motsunabe is a local hot pot dish typically made up of beef or pork tripe, cabbage, garlic, chives and togarashi peppers in a soy sauce or miso based soup. The inexpensive, slightly spicy stew is usually cooked at the table on portable burners and served with a bowl of white rice. Tetsunabe Gyoza is pan-fried, Chinese style dumplings, which are typically stuffed with a mixture of ground pork, cabbage and green onions. They are also a popular Fukuoka specialty where they are served in large batches on ceramic or hot iron plates. These Fukuoka dishes have actually swept Japan by storm and become widely popular across the country.
