TONKOTSU BROTH

rich pork bone broth

Traditional (Shio 42) | $13

Hakodate is a city on the island of Hokkaido, Japan and is the birthplace for this style of ramen which happens to share nearly the same latitude as Grand Rapids! This is important to note because their weather allowed for this lighter, sea salt-based soup to flourish there, making this also the perfect soup pairing for us here in West Michigan. It’s umami, simple, and clean. Served with house-made noodles, rich broth, scallions, sprouts, kikurage, naruto, nori, negi oil and our house-made umami butter.

Suggested Proteins: chashu, aji-tama egg

Zessan | $15
絶賛

Suggested Proteins: braised pork shoulder, cheese, aji-tama egg

Kare | $14

Katsu Kare is a famous dish which combines two Japanese dishes together: Kare rice (Japanese-style curry) and tonkatsu (breaded pork cutlet).
