🥩 WEST GATE｜Kobe Beef Bokkake Cold Noodles

Rich Kobe beef & dashi broth—deeply satisfying.

Tender Kobe beef simmered in a sweet-savory glaze pairs beautifully with a chilled Japanese-style dashi broth. Enjoy it as-is for pure umami, or change it up mid-meal by adding vinegar and chili oil. Both ways are delicious.
