Ramen Bowls
Ramen bowls, unlike other Japanese tableware, are not meant to be lifted while eating. They are often crafted from heavier ceramics and feature simple, neutral colors that complement any type of ramen. While the donburi bowl is versatile and used for a variety of Japanese dishes, the ramen bowl may seem more specialized, but it remains an essential item in every Japanese household.
If you're planning to make ramen at home, we highly recommend adding one to your kitchen. Even a basic serving topped with chopped green onions, boiled eggs, and nori (seaweed) can be elevated to an authentic ramen experience, just like what you’d enjoy at a Japanese restaurant.

Donburi Bowls
Donburi bowls, a quintessential piece of Japanese tableware, are larger, thicker, and deeper than standard rice bowls, making them ideal for serving popular donburi dishes like tendon, oyakodon, and katsudon. Whether it's a rice dish or a soupy creation, these bowls elevate the dining experience.
Their versatility extends to noodle dishes like soba, udon, and ramen. The durability and heat retention of these bowls help keep meals warm while enhancing their flavors.
