Tenkaippin (天下一品) is a Japanese restaurant chain specializing in ramen noodles.
Tenkaippin holds a special promotion every October 1, which they call Ten'ichi Day (天一の日, Ten'ichi no Hi), playing off of the name of their restaurant and the calendar date.
In October 2012, Tenkaippin was involved in a lawsuit over failure to pay a resort in Ōtsu, Shiga, for its appearance in one of their television commercials, with the resort demanding ¥18 million, which Tenkaippin refused to pay.
