‘No Ramen, No Life’ – Yep we agree. Muso Ramen has seriously noodled its way into our hearts. When it comes to authentic Japanese ramen, it’s pretty clear why this quaint eating house has made our list. Comfort yourself with Muso favourites like the Tonkotsu Black (pork broth) topped with pork belly, the Tokyo Soy (chicken and pork clear broth) and The Buddha – gluten-free noodles in a vegetable broth with roasted seasonal toppings.
