Opening times Tuesday – Sunday, 2pm – 4pm and 6pm – lateĬontact 0, 14 Long Street, CBD, Cape Town Lucky BaoĬheyne Morrisby has carved quite a name for himself as an fusion-flavour fundi, with his restaurants Cheyne’s, Shio, Ding Dong and Lucky Bao. Please note Ramen is only served at lunchtime.

Made with free-range chicken wings, vegetables and a soya-sauce broth that’s lovingly prepared for nine hours before being served, it’s flavoursome and comforting. The ramen Though the menu only features one ramen dish, it’s a knockout. Obi specialises in sushi, tempura and ramen, and the fish is always ocean-fresh, flawlessly prepared and as tasty as forbidden fruit. The lovable (if volatile) Papa San – who earned his exemplary reputation at the now defunct Takumi and Minato – is still cooking up a storm in Long Street at the restaurant he co-owns with Ben Bettendorf.

These eateries serve ramen – but just one variety. Opening times Monday – Saturday, 11.30am – 10pmĬontact 0, 92 Campground Road, Rondebosch, Cape Town One-bowl wonders Of the two Korean noodle dishes – one is spicy and the other is less piquant and vegetarian. Both are served with pork belly, spring onions, bean sprouts, nori and a boiled egg. The ramen There are two Japanese ramen dishes on offer: shoyu ramen made from a soya broth and tonkotsu ramen made from a pork-bone broth. This relatively new Rondebosch joint serves a mix of Korean and Japanese dishes so don’t be confused if you see Japanese ramen next to the Korean ramyun (noodles) on the menu – although similar, they have very different flavour profiles. Opening times Monday – Saturday, 11.30am – 3pm and 5.30pm – 10pmĬontact 0, Corner Bird and Church Streets, Stellenbosch Haru The ramen Currently only shoyu ramen is offered, which is served with pork belly, shiitake mushrooms, daikon and a soft boiled egg, but they plan on introducing more ramen dishes soon. Known for serving some of the best sushi and Japanese tapas in Stellenbosch, Genki isn’t specifically known for its ramen, but now that they plan on introducing more ramen dishes to their menu, it might well become the winelands’ go-to ramen spot. Opening times Monday – Saturday, 11.30am – 3pm 5pm – 10pmĬontact 0, Shop 6, The Rockwell, Green Point, Cape Town Genki Sushi & Japanese Tapas The ramen While we don’t know what varieties will be on the menu, we do know that the noodles will be home made and delicious, with options to satisfy various palates. It doesn’t serve ramen yet, but Arato assures us they will be churning out delicious noodle dishes in a month or so when their noodle machine arrives from overseas. Owned by celebrated chef Arata Koga (formerly Tank and Genki), this casual gourmet spot lives up to its name – izakaya means Japanese gastropub – with its cool indoor-outdoor scene that is reminiscent of a streetside spot in Tokyo. Opening times Monday – Saturday, 5pm – 10pmĬontact 0, 103 Harrington Street, Zonnebloem, Cape Town Izakaya Matsuri The ramen There are four lip-smacking bowls on the menu, all rammed with flavour: shoyu pork-belly ramen (with a light broth) kimiko tofu ramen with bok choi (with a thick, sweet broth) braised-beef ramen (with spicy miso) and a chicken laksa ramen. The rough-and-ready decor and tavern-like seating is all part of its appeal but, actually, the ramen is the main event! Locals have been flocking to to this grungy, no-fuss ramen bar since it opened above Lefty’s four years ago. Location 77 Regent Road, Sea Point, Cape Town Downtown Ramen Opening times Tuesday – Sunday, 12pm – 11pm The ramen There are five types (chicken, duck, beef brisket, beef fillet and vegetable), all seasoned to perfection and made from chicken bones (except, of course, the vegetable ramen).

Here’s where to get your noodle fix in Cape Town.Īn after-work and weekend favourite, this ramen bar bursts at the seams most nights, so it’s best to come early or settle for takeaway noodles. And, with winter here good and proper, there’s hardly a better – or more delicious – way to ward off the sniffles than with a big, brothy bowl of ramen. The origin of these utterly delicious bowls of comfort might be a bone of contention (some say China most say Japan), but there’s absolutely no dispute about how darn delicious and satisfying (and relatively inexpensive) ramen is!Īnd that’s even before we delve into the health-giving properties of what is essentially noodle soup (if done correctly, the slow-cooked bone broth takes hours to make and, as such, is packed with gut-activating nutrients).įortunately for Capetonians, a fresh wave of ramen bars has washed up onto our shores, allowing us to satisfy our cravings for these belly-warming broths. Oodles of noodles at these slurp-tastic ramen restaurants!
