Happy Birthday Emily's Mom!
This was filmed in February. If you are craving Kyoto Kitashirakawa Ramen, come to South Brisbane Taro's where it is available all year!

Very Taro.

This Double Katsudon is satisfying with double the amount of Bangalow Sweetpork Katsu.

But with subtle care to details. Think the tendering done to the pork loin, the Japanese panko, the cook-rest-cooking method to slowly heat the pork, the proper bonito dashi based warish*ta, velvety half done pasture laid eggs.

And therefore tastes spectacular.

3 serves remain for tonight's ticketed dinner.

My tip, get one ticket Katsudon to share and order ramen from the regular menu.

I had a chance to talk to Griffith Uni student and die hard Taro's Ramen fan Teku from Mongolia. So happy to see the Lambkotsu is really being accepted by all palates.

As with all ramen, history is relatively young with the Iekei Ramen that originated at Yoshimuraya in Yokohama in the 1970's. It started when a young Mr Yoshimura decided to mix the best of both worlds by mixing Kyushu Tonkotsu Ramen and Tokyo Shoyu Ramen. The Iekei style Ramen is now the fastest expanding main stream style of ramen in Japan at the moment due to a few chains that have become a winning model. Basically an Iekei Ramen consists of soy sauce driven pork bone broth with a layer of chiyu "chicken fat". At Yoshimuraya and its direct descendant shops, it is matched with 逆切りGyakugiri (cutting surface is thicker than the width of the noodles) thick cut medium moisture noodles sourced from Sakai Seimen and served with smoked hung charsiu, lots of Nori and spinach. Enough with the history, March Special Iekei Ramen, enjoy guys!

Secret of Taro's.

We make our noodles fresh in store by ourselves. The challenge I had when making our vegan ramen is how to make noodles bouncy without eggs. I came up with kneading in a Konjac puree. So our vegan noodles not only have a nice bite but are actually high in fibre and reduced calories!

Secret of Taro's

We only partner with suppliers who share our ethics. Whether it’s Bangalow Sweet Pork or eggs from Forage Farms, we choose farmers, craftspeople with a story to tell. 🐖🥚
Even our branded bowls have a journey—baked one by one in Gifu, central Japan at . 🇯🇵✨

Did you know? You can actually own one. Collect our loyalty points to take one home, or a tee lovingly printed by our friends at The Print Bar. 👕🎨

Finally met the legend Josh was bragging about in our last video! Meet Jasmine—the newly minted Registered Nurse.🩺✨
She came in for the Tonkotsu Ramen, but things took a turn when she recommended her favourite CBD spot.
My brain was already halfway to a self-serve bacon bar on Elizabeth Street before I realized it’s actually a Korean bakery (). 🥐🇰🇷
Am I the only one who hears "Bacon" in every sentence? Please tell me I’m not crazy. ⬇️

We finally caught the guy who’s been “walking past” us for days... 😂🍜
Meet Josh. He’s been house-sitting in West End and playing hard to get, but the Pork Kimchi Rice finally won him over. 🐷🔥
The Real Win: He used his "Good News" slot to shout out his girlfriend for landing a job as a nurse! 🩺❤️ Massive W—we love a supportive partner.
Since he’s usually a The Gap local, he’s putting us onto Vicinos () for the best coffee and healthy whole foods in his neck of the woods. ☕️🥗
Tag that one friend who “walks past” a place 100 times before actually going in. ⬇️

Transparency in every bowl. 🍜🌾
At Taro's, "house-made" isn't a buzzword—it’s our standard. We’re proud to work with local legends like Farmer John for our wheat and Damien for our pork to ensure every ingredient meets the mark. From the first boil to the final noodle pull, the work is what makes the difference.
