About

Ramen Consultant

Kenichi Ota.

I directed the Ramen Yokochou Festival, the largest ramen festival in U.S. This amazing event brought together as many as 14 domestic and international ramen shops for a 2 day event that fed over 30,000 hungry ramen aficionados. I was responsible for planning, marketing, and implementing this festival. Next, I spearheaded the opening of a new ramen shop in Houston, Texas. I led a team in the design, furnishing, and marketing of this new restaurant. Additionally, I created recipes for the new menu. I also served as a consultant for the planning, creating, and grand opening for a new ramen shop in Bay Area . Both restaurants remain popular and highly rated on Yelp. While living in Japan for the past 10 months. I opened a takeout gyoza kitchen in my hometown. It has become consistently popular.

  • Whether the vision for your ramen traditional or original, I would love to help support it.

  • My experience as a head chef in Houston will help ensure the smooth operation of any new restaurant in which I am involved.

  • I also have experience running the administrative side of the business, from managing employees to accounting.

  • I am associated with a ramen school in Japan and can help facilitate classes for those interested.

  • I can help with your restaurant from the planning stages through the grand opening and beyond.

  • With over 10 years of living and working in California and the U.S., I am familiar with the domestic restaurant market and will help advise you along the way.
