Here’s what they had to say about this one – “This is a very special shoyu ramen because it has the added flavor of Maruhon sesame oil (the brand was founded in 1725). It has a soy sauce taste that combines pork and Chinese cabbage, shiitake mushrooms and oyster flavors . The rich flavor of sesame oil gives this dish a delicious and distinctive character.”
