A Delicious Detour: Fujiyama55, Ekamai, Bangkok
While heading to the popular Here Hai (thanks, TikTok!), I was met with a line that was far too long for my patience. On my way back to the BTS, I stumbled upon Fujiyama55 and decided to satisfy my ramen cravings instead—and I’m glad I did.
The Meal
I ordered their signature ramen and a side of gyoza. While I initially wanted to pair the meal with a Kirin, Thailand’s alcohol restrictions (no beer served between 2 PM and 5 PM) meant I settled for my trusty green tea—the same one I always grab at 7-11.

The Ramen:
The ramen was outstanding. The broth was incredibly rich and thick—so much so that kettles of hot water were placed on the table for diners to dilute it. I didn’t bother; I loved the intense flavor just as it was. The noodles were perfectly cooked with a delightful bite, and the toppings were generous and flavorful. -
The Gyoza:
The gyoza were just as impressive. Crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, they hit all the right notes. A dash of chili oil would have elevated them further, but they were delicious even without it.
Ramen Showdown: Fujiyama55 vs. Tsuta
Having recently tried Tsuta at Central World, I couldn’t help but compare the two. However, it’s a tough call since their broths are entirely different. Tsuta’s lighter, more refined flavors contrast Fujiyama55’s bold and hearty approach. In the end, I’d call it a draw—both deliver incredible ramen experiences in their own unique ways.
Final Thoughts
If you’re in Ekamai and craving ramen, Fujiyama55 is a fantastic choice. With its rich broth, perfectly cooked noodles, and excellent gyoza, it’s a place I’d happily return to. Sometimes, detours lead to the best discoveries!
