Long ago in the midst of the blooming valley of Kyoto, Japan, there used to live a clan of warriors. Specialized in tactics of fighting with kendo sticks and katanas, they were considered to be the protectors of the valley.
Samurai were the hereditary military nobility and officer caste of medieval and early-modern Japan, and they moved into professional and entrepreneurial roles. Their memory and weaponry remain prominent in Japanese popular culture.
As a gesture of gratitude, the people of the valley decided to open a place of food and nourishment so that these brave warriors should never go to battle without being properly nourished. They called it Samariya Ramen (Samariya: Therefore Ramen: Ramen).
Client Comment: Make me a brand that reminds me of the rich culture of Kyoto province. Not your regular Tokyo culture, but the genuine and old heritage of Japan and it’s warriors.
Years passed and the food joint began to get crowded with more and more samurais, who bonded over food and kendo skills.
Kyoto existed long before Tokyo came into existence. According to some archeologists, Kyoto might have existed slightly before the sixth century. The Shimogamo Shrine, which you can visit in Kyoto, dates back to around the same time.
