Starting from level 0, they increase their spiciness until level 30. If you finish all of your ramen, from level 5 and up, they will put your name on the wall.</p> <p>Today, my friend made his second attempt to eat level 30. We cheered him on for 2 hours, as he took his time to finish. He finally did, but it didn’t end well. Let’s just say it didn’t stay down after he finished, he could barely move because of stomach cramps, he had to take antacids, and we lost him on our walk back to our dorms, as he just couldn’t keep up because it hurt too much to walk.</p> <p>However, he did get his name on the wall, with the following quote: “今度、レベル３５を食べてみたい!” (“Next time, I want to try level 35!” note: there is no level 35.)</p>http://gaikoku.tumblr.com/post/17204798633http://gaikoku.tumblr.com/post/17204798633Tue, 07 Feb 2012 19:19:00 +0900ramenfoodYamagataspicylevel 30Japanphotography<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lykgbon5701ro4w7do1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>そば</p> <p><span><span class="t_nihongo_kanji">新庄市、山形県</span></span></p>http://gaikoku.tumblr.com/post/16697679853http://gaikoku.tumblr.com/post/16697679853Mon, 30 Jan 2012 00:28:36 +0900ShinjōYamagataPhotographyfoodsobatea<iframe class="tumblr_audio_player tumblr_audio_player_16693035839" src="http://gaikoku.tumblr.com/post/16693035839/audio_player_iframe/gaikoku/tumblr_lyk973BSU71ro4w7d?audio_file=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tumblr.com%2Faudio_file%2Fgaikoku%2F16693035839%2Ftumblr_lyk973BSU71ro4w7d" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true" scrolling="no" width="500" height="85"></iframe><br/><br/><p>1937.</p> <p><strong><span class="t_nihongo_kanji">別れのブルース - </span></strong><span><span class="t_nihongo_kanji">淡谷 のり子</span></span></p> <p><strong>Wakare no Burūsu</strong><span><span class="t_nihongo_kanji"> (Farewell Blues) - Awaya Noriko</span></span></p>http://gaikoku.tumblr.com/post/16693035839http://gaikoku.tumblr.com/post/16693035839Sun, 29 Jan 2012 21:54:39 +0900Awaya NorikoMusic1930sJapanBluesRyūkōka<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lyk7fdhaV31ro4w7do1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>熊ホットケーキ</p> <p>山形市、山形県</p>http://gaikoku.tumblr.com/post/16692236700http://gaikoku.tumblr.com/post/16692236700Sun, 29 Jan 2012 21:16:00 +0900JapanYamagatabananachocolate syrupcutefoodfruitpancakepineapplewhip creamPhotography<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lyk5xfOvO11ro4w7do1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>山形大学</p> <p>山形市、山形県</p>http://gaikoku.tumblr.com/post/16691595314http://gaikoku.tumblr.com/post/16691595314Sun, 29 Jan 2012 20:44:00 +0900YamagataYamagata UniversityautumnbicycleJapanPhotography<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lyep0ahTNO1ro4w7do1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>千歳山</p> <p>山形市、山形県</p>http://gaikoku.tumblr.com/post/16518621366http://gaikoku.tumblr.com/post/16518621366Thu, 26 Jan 2012 21:50:33 +0900Mount ChitoseYamagatatori gateJapanmountainPhotography<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lyek6z7kCx1ro4w7do1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>こけし</p> <p>山形市、山形県</p>http://gaikoku.tumblr.com/post/16516706939http://gaikoku.tumblr.com/post/16516706939Thu, 26 Jan 2012 20:06:35 +0900kokeshidollYamagataJapanPhotography
