Ramen goku

Ramen goku’s signature charrai pairs fluffy egg with light, separate grains of fried rice, bringing contrasting textures together in one dish. The charrai is well seasoned, and sauces or pickles from the table offer a way to change up the flavour as you eat. Some diners say they tried 3 sauces, including one with garlic, while others enjoyed varying the taste throughout the meal. Start with the fried rice as it is, then add a sauce to suit your preference.

Ramen is centred on tonkotsu, with menu information also listing Goku ramen, black tonkotsu, bonito-flavoured tonkotsu and chicken paitan. Diners who have tried the tonkotsu ramen have commented on its broth, which they found neither overly thin nor watery, and on the springy noodles. Make the ramen the main event, or pair it with charrai, depending on your appetite. A mini ramen and mini charrai combination is available for those who want a little of both.

Some diners note that seating is limited, and counter seats are available. Allow yourself time to decide whether to focus on the noodles or the charrai.
