Where Every Bowl Tells a Story
A beautiful, cozy Japanese restaurant landing page inspired by Ichiraku Ramen from the anime Naruto. Built for the DEV Frontend Challenge: Comfort Food Edition. 🌸

The goal wasn't just to build a pretty restaurant page. It was to capture a feeling.
Ichiraku Ramen from Naruto was never just a restaurant — it was the place where things got quieter and safer. Where a bowl of ramen made everything feel a little more okay. That warmth, that sense of coming home, is what this page tries to recreate.
The aesthetic:
- Cherry blossom petals falling gently like snow
- Warm golden lantern lights glowing at dusk
- Dark wood textures that feel worn and loved
- Studio Ghibli meets modern Japanese restaurant design
- Hero section with cherry blossom atmosphere and steaming ramen
- Signature menu with 6 ramen bowls and Japanese-inspired names
- Our Story section about Ichiraku's history in Konoha
- Visit section with opening hours and location in Hidden Leaf Village
- Falling cherry blossom petal animations
- Steam animations rising from ramen bowls
- Fully responsive design
- Warm color palette: cherry blossom pinks, deep reds, golden oranges, dark wood browns
- Next.js — React framework
- React — UI library
- Tailwind CSS — Styling
- Vercel — Deployment
