    • Tonkotsu Ramen

      Tonkotsu ramen is a Japanese noodle soup made with a hearty pork bone broth base—ton means pork, and kotsu means bone. Gonzo’s tonkotsu broth is made of collagen-rich pork parts simmered in water over high heat until the collagen in the connective tissue transforms into gelatin, which gives the bone broth its silky texture. Gonzo’s premium tonkotsu soup combines our pork bone broth with chicken broth and dashi made with kombu seaweed and shiitake mushroom, adding the layered depth of umami. We pair the broth with freshly made thin, straight egg noodles, then topped with house-made pork chashu, marinated egg, green onions, and kikurage mushroom.
