The ramen served in Butamaru is the direct result of his travels in search of noodle-vana. In Fukuoka, Chef Jerome discovered a way to prepare “melt-in-your-mouth” pork chashu<\/strong>, while his visit to Hakata inspired the recipe for Butamaru’s 16-hour tonkotsu broth<\/strong>. Finally, in Oita was where he learned the art of noodles from Master Artisan Sugimura, a veteran with 40 years of noodle-making experience under his belt.<\/p>\n Salt-based tonkotsu<\/em><\/p>\n Soy sauce based tonkotsu<\/em><\/p>\n Miso based tonkotsu<\/em><\/p>\n Spicy peanut and sesame tonkotsu<\/em><\/p>\n Dry ramen noodles to be dipped in a separate hot bowl of broth on the side<\/em><\/p>\n If you’re looking for a more unique and healthy “ramen” experience, you may want to try their signature Ramen Salad or Kani Ramen Salad (cold ramen with fresh vegetables and shredded kani tossed in our mentaiko or ‘fish roe’ dressing).<\/p>\n Dry noodles served with fresh vegetables and tossed in black sesame dressing.
