Food Therapy Diner Chabuzen

Probably the closest vegan version of tonkotsu ramen you'll find in Asia, Chabuzen has ingeniously made this pork-bone based noodle dish vegan while still absolutely delicious.

The owner uses soy milk, soy sauce, miso, mirin charred garlic and brown rice yeast to form a complex and hearty broth that's just as flavorsome and rich as its meat-filled counterpart. The restaurant places a heavy importance on organic and additive-free dishes.

You'll also find some other Japanese noodles classics on the menu such as vegan tantanmen and curry noodles along with vegan gyoza.
