Ramen at Mr.ZUMA - a modern interpretation of Japanese classics in the centre of Kyiv

Ramen is the soul of Japanese cuisine. A dish that has long been considered ‘food for body and soul’. At Mr.ZUMA restaurant, we don't just cook ramen - we honour its traditions by adapting them to modern gastronomic requirements.
Traditions and cooking techniques
Classic Japanese ramen is a symphony of broth, noodles, toppings and base sauce. At Mr.ZUMA, broths are cooked for 12 to 36 hours, depending on the type - tonkotsu, shoyu, miso or shio. This process allows us to extract the maximum flavour from the ingredients: pork or chicken bones, vegetables, shiitake mushrooms, kombu seaweed.
Special varieties of Japanese flour are used for the noodles, which give them elasticity and perfect texture. They are cooked al dente so that they do not absorb excess liquid.
The toppings are another key element: pickled egg, chashu, fermented bamboo, green onions, nori, corn - each component is added with a precise balance.
