Arcas Pamen (aka. Oil Ramen) has its origins from Japanese Instant Noodles and evolved into a thicker sauce that made the broth the star in a gravy like appearance and savory taste with the familiar Japanese Instant Curled Noodles. The name comes from Pa in (pasta) that comes from a Pasta Oil Sauce and Men (mein) from Ramen Noodles that in turn gets the word from the chinese word for noodles.
In the past instant ramen was popular with gamers and college students, due to a cup of ramen was easy to stick in the microwave and be ready to eat in minutes. Not only was it popular in Japan, but later on in North America it also left an impact with the old flavor selection of Chicken, Shrimp, and Beef from the 1980s for its affordable price, quick accessibility, and simple preparation. The creation of Arcas Pamen was developed in Akihabara from those who liked Cup a Noodles from convenience stores in its Japanese varieties of different flavors from the American variety with Instant flavors like: Chicken Ramen, Seafood Ramen, Spicy Ramen, and Curry Ramen that all influenced the end flavors of Arcas Pamen: Bukkake Cream Pamen, Kainui Seafood Pamen, Tomatto Spicy Pamen, and Hanakeipa Shoyu Pamen. In Akihabara, those who followed the cup a noodle had also happened to enjoy a unique type of ramen from a restaurant named Kasugatei Ramen which featured Abura Soba (oil ramen), so many had posted their food pictures online and left their journeys in cyberspace. The pictures had featured Shoyu Abura Soba, Tori-ton Abura Soba, Roasted Tori-ton Abura Soba, Kado-kiri Niku Abura Soba, Spicy Ebi Jyan Abura Soba, and Ton-koku Abura Soba. One click and all the photos uploaded to a social site. Through the mysteries of the internet there were Otaku from the Pacific Northwest who had gotten a hold of the pictures from a search engine that featured the Akibakei Kasugatei Ramen gallery. These Otaku had a great interest in Japan from an interest of Ramen that they had eaten in college and seen in animanga, so it was exciting to see such a strange variation that was never seen before from the soupy ramen that is the typical sight or the tsukemen, so they were quite excited to go and find out where they could get some in the states. But when they tried to see if there was any sort of Ramen like the photos they couldn't find any stores nearby to replicate what they saw, so they went on to make their own variation. It was said that in a game club that enjoyed both Japanese Animanga and Role Playing Games there was a female of unknown identity that was said to have made the first Oil Ramen that was based on a mix of Italian and Japanese cooking, there was a pasta like sauce that was made with the umami of dashi with noodles that were from instant ramen. This dish would be later referred to as Gravy Oil Ramen and eventually renamed as Arcas Pamen. Bukkake Pamen: Cream, Bukkake Oil: Pechorino Romano Cheese, Milk, Cream Cheese, Olive Oil.
