Ramen Wars

Overview

Are you a hardcore ramen connoisseur? By now, you've probably tried all of Sydney's best ramen offerings. Our favourites might have their noodles done to al dente perfection and their chicken cooked to mouthwatering, melty goodness, but things are about to go next-level for ramen fiends. Bibs on, the city's inaugural Ramen Wars are warming up.

On Sunday, May 15, two of Sydney's most experienced chefs will meet at Salaryman, Surry Hills. On one side of the kitchen bench, you'll find Noma alumni and Silvereye head chef Sam Miller, who's promising to bring smoked eel and ox tongue to the Japanese classic. On the other will be Master head chef John Javier, who says he's going to draw on "traditional Asian flavours" to create an interesting dish, honing in on the elements that make ramen the "epitome of comfort food".

And the best bit? You'll be doing the judging. That's right, kicking back, with a cocktail in your hand, you'll be sampling and slurping your way through the evening, ultimately deciding who should take the ramen trophy home. Get those chopsticks at the ready.
