Tonkotsu

Was kindly invited down to @tonkotsu.ramenbar recently to try their new Summer menu (what summer I hear you say?!) but regardless of the not so summery weather, the menu was a big hit!

We tried the new seafood summer ramen and the chicken teriyaki one too plus some of the iconic sides we have come to love here including the in-house made pork & ginger gyozas, chilli cauliflower wings, edamame beans and cucumbers with mustard seed pickle (these are delicious!) accompanied by some of my favourite plum wine and a homemade ginger beer

Both dishes had a lot of flavour and great portion sizes. I wasn’t aware that the dishes were actually cold (should have guessed as they were summer specials) which took me by surprise and although still delicious, I think I would have preferred them hot as cold ramen just didn’t sit right with me. The sides were fab as always (cucumber and mustard seem pickle is a must if you go here!) and the plum wine is just the best!

Overall, I always really enjoy my visit here. Would opt for a hot main next time but the flavours were lovely and still thoroughly enjoyable! Definitely worth a visit if you haven’t been yet

I was invited to try this one. As always, all opinions are my own.
