I think I just found THE BEST Ramen in Melbourne 🍜🔥
Today I pulled up at Ikkoryu Fukuoka Ramen Australia and went full J-Webby mode on an authentic Japanese feast. Handmade ramen, proper comfort food vibes, and plates that just kept coming.
I kicked things off with teriyaki chicken ribs, glazed in their housemade sauce and way bigger than expected. Then onto the soy garlic ribs, followed by a full slab of Japanese-style pork ribs that were slow cooked, fall-off-the-bone perfection. No meat left behind.
While the ramen cooled (or at least tried to), I got stuck into the ribs, and honestly, I’ve never had Japanese pork ribs like this before. Elite.
At around the 12-minute mark it was finally time to attack their signature tonkatsu ramen. Loaded bowl, soft noodles, pork katsu, egg, seaweed, and still absolutely steaming. Chopstick skills got tested, patience got tested, and this bowl was way bigger than it looked.
That tonkatsu curry sauce took me straight back to Japan 🇯🇵
Japanese feast officially smashed in 18mins 24secs
Until we eat again 👊🍜
