🇺🇸 Austin Must-Eat: Authentic Japanese Tsukemen

Ramen 512 is widely considered the best ramen shop in Texas, with numerous awards and praise from industry experts. 🏆✨ The owner, originally from finance, followed his passion and trained under famed New York ramen master Keizo Shimamoto (creator of the viral ramen burger!). 🍔➡️🍜 He frequently travels to Japan to study at top ramen shops and even imported a noodle machine from Japan. Other ramen chefs from across the U.S. often visit with their signature dishes! 🇯🇵✈️ This summer, they’re hosting a special event: a new featured tsukemen every week! Their dipping broth is incredibly rich and clingy—almost like a sauce—but never too salty or heavy. After finishing the noodles, you can ask for a light broth to dilute the remaining sauce and enjoy it as a soup! 🥣💫 This week’s feature: Tom Yum Tsukemen! 🌶️🍋🍅 A bold blend of Thai chilies, fresh lime, and sweet tomatoes—all coming together with a refreshing Southeast Asian aroma. Previous highlights: 🦐 Shrimp Tsukemen (made with shrimp paste and oil) 🦀 Crab Tsukemen (infused with crab roe) 🐖 Jiro-style Tsukemen (with pork back fat) Each bowl costs $18 and includes a generous portion of noodles, chashu, a soft-boiled egg, and bamboo shoots. 🥚🎍 In today’s economy, this is an incredible deal for such high-quality, flavorful ramen! 💰👍 📍Ramen 512 #LifeInTheUS #AmericanFood #USFoodAdventures #StudyInTheUS #Austin
