Masamoto Ueda has been cooking at his tiny ramen noodle restaurant for forty years. Many of his customers are regulars who return constantly over the decades. It's not fancy but it's good eating. He has cooked the same noodles over the years.
The perfect viewing experience would be watching this movie while eating the food. That's what is missing from this. We need to eat his food. It's great to see him make it. It's great to listen to people talk about eating it. I just need to taste it myself. They could do more about changes in the wider society and neighborhood over the years. It does go into his family life a bit. The change in '91 is a good episode. Basically, this place is Cheers where everybody knows your name.
