500 Ramen Burgers Making LA Debut This Saturday

Here’s the best news you’ll read all day: the Ramen Burger is headed to Los Angeles this weekend only!

As made famous by creator Keizo Shimamoto, the Ramen Burger is set to make it’s West Coast debut in Torrance at the Mitsuwa Market this Saturday, September 7th. Shimamoto is only serving up 500 of these bad boys and “maybe some more,” so head out get there early to avoid being “that guy” who missed out on this momentous mouthwatering occasion.

As we reported last month, the Ramen Burger made it’s official US debut in New York at Smorgasburg. I managed to get a hold of one of these epicurean creations last week while on vacation in the Big Apple and here’s some truth; these delicious beings are worth the hype. Crispy on the outside but still chewy on the inside, the noodle buns are grilled with a slight crisp, while the green onion, arugula and shoyu sauce atop the beef patty bring traditional Asian flavors to an American based dish.

The burgers start flipping at 11AM. So, good luck, my fellow Angelinos!
