The Instant Noodles Invention Memorial Hall was established to commemorate the "Father of Instant Noodles" Momofuku Ando. The hall displays the production tools, research and development process, and history of the development of instant noodles when instant noodles were born in 1958. Here, in addition to learning about various knowledge about instant noodles, you can also experience DIY instant noodles, which is very interesting. The entire memorial hall is divided into two floors. The first floor includes two exhibition halls that introduce the story of instant noodles, a cup noodle making experience area and a tasting area, and the second floor is the popular chicken ramen factory. There is a display screen at the entrance of the exhibition hall on the first floor, playing a short film introducing the purpose of the establishment of the Instant Noodles Invention Memorial Hall. As soon as you enter the No. 1 exhibition hall, you will see the research hut where "Chicken Ramen" was born, which reproduces the scene and props when making instant noodles. Then, you will pass a story wall, which tells the story of Momofuku Ando and the development of instant noodles in chronological order with pictures and texts. At the end of Hall 1, there is a guessing game table where you can learn more about instant noodles through various forms of interactive questions and answers. Then come to Hall 2, where there is a "Cup Noodles" theater with a cup noodle appearance. Watch the introduction video and you will know the inspiration and manufacturing process of Nissin Cup Noodles "Cup Noodle". Next to the "Cup Noodles" theater is "My Cup Noodles Factory", which is a cup noodle making experience area. You can draw patterns on the cup, choose your favorite soup and vegetables, and make cup noodles. The staff will also help you seal it in an inflatable bag for you to take home. You don't need to make an appointment for the cup noodle making experience, but it stops accepting at 15:30, and you need to wait in line when there are many people, so please participate as early as possible. In addition, Hall 2 also has a display area and a data room for instant noodles from all over the world, and the tasting area also has limited local delicacies that are usually not available in Osaka. Before leaving the first floor, take a walk through the instant noodles tunnel. The inner wall and the top of the tunnel are inlaid with the main products of Nissin instant noodles over the generations. You can intuitively see its development process, which is also visually shocking. Go up to the second floor of the memorial hall and you will find the Chicken Ramen Factory. In this production experience room, you can make the world's earliest instant noodles - Chicken Ramen. After kneading and rolling the noodles, they are flavored after steaming, and then a series of processes such as the "instant oil heat drying method" are used to complete the production. The whole process takes about 90 minutes. You need to make an appointment in advance to experience this activity. If you don't make an appointment, you can visit through the glass window.
