Hiroya Ramen | Cancún's Lobster Ramen Worth the Hype
📍 Blvd. Kukulcan 8.5, Hotel Zone 🍜 The Love Story Behind the Bowl Meet the Japanese couple who left corporate jobs to pursue their ramen dreams in Mexico. When I arrived at 6pm, the owner literally covered his dinner with plastic wrap to serve us - that passion shows in every dish. 🦞 Signature Lobster Ramen (Must-Order!) Double lobster treatment: Grilled for smokiness + simmered in broth "Gout-inducing" rich soup: 48-hour tonkotsu base with miso depth Pro tip: Squeeze the roasted garlic into the broth for extra umami 🥟 Other Standouts: • Shrimp Gyoza Ramen: House-made dumplings with snap Clear seafood broth that’ll make you sip to the last drop • Secret Perk: Ask for their imported sriracha (not on the table!) 🍣 Good But Not Stars: Salmon donburi (fresh but basic) Fried chicken (ginger-forward - skip if sensitive) Onigiri (massive but forgettable) ☀️ Survival Tips for the Heat: Wear breathable clothes - it’s open-air with only fans Go early (they close when broth runs out) Cash preferred 💰 Damage: ~$45 USD per bowl (worth it for the lobster) ⭐ Verdict: 9/10 - A unique Mexico-Japan fusion you can’t find elsewhere #CancunEats #LobsterLovers #HiddenGems #RamenPilgrimage
