The 11 Best Ramen Spots In America - The Infatuation
"Ramen Del Barrio is by no means traditional, but that’s exactly what we love about them. The stall is inside an Austin food court and it’s home to inventive Mexican-Japanese dishes like mole tsukemen and carnitas tonkotsu ramen. The hanging paper lanterns make sitting at the bar here feel a bit like you’re at a small ramen shop in Tokyo—just as long as you don’t look behind you. The star of the show here is the carnitas tonkotsu bowl—the broth has all the creaminess of an excellent bowl of tonkotsu, plus tender chunks of slow-cooked pork belly and buche. Squeeze a lime over it all and take a sip. It’s the best ramen in Austin, and tastes almost like drinking a taco." - anne cruz
