Misa Dining

Ramen at Pier Bandai

Misa Dining is a restaurant located at Pier Bandai in Niigata City, and it's a good place for a feed if you're looking for some warming ramen. There's not a ton of space (it's a pretty small premises) but I got there early so I didn't have any issues finding a spot. Ordering is done via a vending machine system, so you will need to have some Japanese reading ability or be prepared to wade through with the use of Google Translate. They are cash only as well, so just keep that in mind if you plan on visiting. The miso chashumen is my recommendation if you're looking for something hearty and warming for winter!
