Ramen with an American Twist

The Japanese has yet again come up with a whole new, unique way of enjoying their food. The Ramen Burger, as described by the Asahi Shimbun is as amusingly different as the challenges they come up with in their game shows:

In place of the hamburger buns, the Furusato-tei restaurant uses boiled ramen noodles baked into small round cakes. Rather than a meat patty, the ramen “buns” sandwich other ingredients often found in a ramen dish, such as char siu roasted pork, menma, a condiment made from dried bamboo, and naruto sliced fish cake.

While the first bite of the baked noodles can be crunchy, you soon begin to feel like you are slurping up ramen noodles.

It was said to be a bestseller at the said restaurant. I bet it will be just that if it ever hits Japanese restaurants everywhere else!
