Ippudo Japan Menu
Shiromaru Motomi
If this is your first visit to Ippudo, I would personally recommend the Shiromaru Classic which is Ippudo’s original homemade tonkotsu ramen hakata-style noodles and broth.
The rich and fragrant silky soup is simmered for eighteen hours and you can also indulge in the special version which has some extra pork, a soft-boiled egg and roasted seaweed.
