Starters and Sides to Begin Your Culinary Journey

The restaurant complements these with a classic side of crisp white kimchi, providing a refreshing counterbalance to the rich noodle dishes that follow.
Mains: Artisanal Ramen Excellence
The star of the menu is the Kyokai Paitan Ramen, a rich, deeply flavorful chicken broth soup that rivals traditional gomtang with its velvety texture. Topped with melt-in-your-mouth chicken char siu and drizzled with aromatic seaweed oil, this ramen is further distinguished by the surprising addition of crunchy baguette pieces, a nod to the chef's French restaurant background. For those seeking a lighter but equally satisfying option, the Chichu Shio Ramen offers a delicate pork stew-inspired broth with balanced flavors.
Desserts and Special Finishes
A highlight unique to Nishimuramen is the exquisite risotto made from freshly cooked pot rice, cheese, and white kimchi. After savoring the ramen, you are invited to create this creamy risotto by adding broth and mixing it to perfection — an indulgent finish that transforms your meal into a multi-textural experience, delighting your taste buds with every spoonful.
