Discovering Tonkotsu Ramen

When it comes to ramen, the rich and creamy broth of Tonkotsu is truly a standout. Originating from the Fukuoka region of Japan, this delicious dish is revered for its deep flavor and velvety texture. At SAMURAI, we pride ourselves on delivering an authentic Tonkotsu Ramen experience that keeps our guests coming back for more.

The secret to Tonkotsu Ramen lies in its broth. Made from pork bones that are simmered for hours, the broth achieves a creamy, almost milky consistency that is packed with umami. This long boiling process extracts the flavors and collagen from the bones, resulting in a soup that is both rich and satisfying.

The Art of Noodle Making

At SAMURAI, we believe that perfect noodles are essential to a great bowl of ramen. Our noodles are crafted with precision, using a high-protein wheat flour that gives them the perfect chewiness. They are thin and straight, allowing them to blend seamlessly with the thick broth.

Each strand of noodle is designed to absorb just the right amount of broth, creating a harmonious balance of flavors in every bite. This careful attention to detail ensures that our guests enjoy an authentic ramen experience.

Enhancing the Flavor

While the broth and noodles form the backbone of Tonkotsu Ramen, the toppings play a critical role in elevating its flavor profile. At SAMURAI, we offer a variety of traditional toppings including:

  • Chashu Pork: Tender slices of braised pork belly that melt in your mouth.
  • Menma: Fermented bamboo shoots that add a subtle crunch.
  • Nitamago: Soft-boiled eggs marinated to perfection.
  • Green Onions: Freshly chopped to add a burst of color and flavor.
  • Wood Ear Mushrooms: For an earthy touch.
