Ramen Del Barrio has a new tsukemen on their menu! It's a heavily reduced version of their carnitas tonkotsu. The menu says "It's heavy. Like, really heavy." and they were absolutely not lying – it was THICC! Absolutely amazing flavor and mouth feel, and the broth was chock full of carnitas.

A neutral observation is that it's so incredibly thick and fatty in a good way that the lime has to work overtime to cut through all the fattiness. I recommend asking for an extra slice or two for the punch of acidity.

My only (very minor) critique is that the tortilla strips seemed a little out of place, but that's just my opinion and I'm sure other people will love them!

Anyway, I give it a solid 9/10! Definitely give it a shot if you're a tsukemen fan 🙂
