Taro's Ramen Artisan Series

Overview

Taro Akimoto loves ramen. If you've been to one of his three eateries, you'll know that's true. Taro also loves experimenting — and not only with the noodle-and-broth concoction that ranks among Brisbane's best. Behold the Taro's Ramen Artisan Series, where he breaks free from his usual delicious menu.

A regular chance to taste something different, Taro's Ramen's adventurous culinary endeavours step into new territory, be it dry-aged beef sprinkled throughout a Japanese delicacy, or throwing spanner crabs into his beloved soups. Throughout July, he's trying both. Yes, your mouth should be watering.

On July 8 and 9 at Taro's Ramen's Queen Street store, it's time for The Ultimate Shabu Shabu Experience, which involves 28-day dry-aged wagyu and sweet pork belly thrown into a shabu shabu hot pot for two or more people to share. Then, come July 22, Taro is heading over to Wandering Cooks to make tonkotsu crab soup with pork charsiu, tonkotsu style noodles and tomato crab salsa. Book early — both are sure to be popular.
