Kyushu Jangara Ramen

Bonsyan Ramen

¥980.00

The restaurant's richest and creamiest 100% pork bone broth, topped with tender char siu and seasoned egg.

Tip: This is very rich! If you want the full experience, add the 'Mentaiko' (spicy cod roe) as a topping—it's the traditional Kyushu way and adds a great savory kick to the heavy broth. Use the provided pickled ginger to cleanse your palate halfway through.

Kyushu Jangara Ramen (All-In)

¥1150.00

Signature lighter tonkotsu-style ramen featuring a blend of pork, chicken, and vegetable stocks.

Tip: The 'All-In' bowl is the best value. The marinated pork chunks (kakuni) are meltingly tender and have a great savory-sweet glaze. It's the best baseline to judge their stock-making skills.
