Ramen Nagi in Century City Mall, Los Angeles, offered a special ramen called the “Limited Fish King.” This ramen combined their classic tonkotsu broth with “katsuobushi” (dried bonito). This gives the broth a strong umami and fish taste. The bowl also has a bonito-infused magi minced ball. What’s unique about Ramen Nagi? Their customizable order sheet. On my visit, I chose heavy tare, rich oil, and kakuni. But, they served me chashu instead. I also picked thick, firm noodles and skipped the spice. The dish was delightful. I’ve become a fan of the distinctive bonito taste and often pick bonito-infused ramen.
Sadly, the “Limited Fish King” is off the menu now. But don’t worry! Their regular items like “Original King,” “Red King,” “Black King,” and “Veggie King” are all stellar, highlighting their tonkotsu expertise.
