"This Hakata-style tonkotsu ramen, concocted by fishermen who needed a quick meal to keep their energy up, is based on a nourishing protein-rich broth, which gives the soup a milky hue. Here, the ultra-thin-cut noodles are dipped in broth for 28 seconds for optimal toothsome texture. With locations in Irvine, San Francisco, and New York, Marufuku is planning to open a few more locations in San Diego." - Helen I. Hwang
