hakata gensuke tonkotsu ramen, russell st

いらっしゃいませ Irasshaimase!

Got a hankering for a big warm bowl of ramen? Here, you can select from an alarming range of soup and noodles cooked to your specific liking (whether you like them slightly underdone, al dente or more soft, they can cater to you).

Mamma loved the ‘black fire’ ramen - described as “black sesame roasted garlic and intense god fire spicy Tonkotsu pork broth ramen”… I mean, I have hardly tasted anything so delicious. The kids enjoy the signature tonkotsu and there are also sides including gyoza and karage chicken if you have someone in tow who is not a fan of noodle soup.

As soon as you enter this authentic ramen joint in the CBD, you will be hit with an indoor humidity that can only be achieved with pots and pots of steaming hot ramen cooking in the kitchen!

This is the perfect stop on a cold day, for a hot and quick steaming bowl of ramen to fuel you up before you head out to more city adventures!
