| Hiyashi Chuka |
From our friends at Daikaya...
Daikaya, the popular izakaya & ramen shop by Partners Daisuke Utagawa, Yama Jewayni and Executive Chef/Partner Katsuya Fukushima, is excited to re-introduce two cold noodle ramen dishes for summer. These cold dishes are available exclusively at the 90-seat izakaya, and are priced at $14.
The first cold noodle dish is the Hiyashi Ramen (Hiyashi Chuka) which is commonly served in ramen shops across Japan through the summer season. The Hiyashi Ramen is made with boiled and chilled to-order noodles, citrus soy vinaigrette, cucumber, simmered bamboo, leeks, and blanched bean sprouts tossed in sesame oil and sesame, wood ear mushroom, shredded cabbage, chashu (roasted pork slices), corn, cherry tomato, ramen egg, nori and carrots. The zesty Hiyashi Spicy Sesame Ramen is Daikaya’s own creation, and a nod to fans of their spicy miso ramen. This dish is made with boiled and chilled to-order noodles, spicy sesame vinaigrette, simmered bamboo, leeks, blanched bean sprouts tossed in sesame oil and sesame, wood ear mushroom, shredded cabbage, chashu (roasted pork slices), corn, cherry tomato, ramen egg, nori and carrots.
Daikaya is located at 705 6th Street, NW, Washington, DC 20001, close to the Gallery Place Metro station. The fall hours are as follows: Ramen Shop (First Floor) serves Sunday and Monday 11:30 AM to 10 PM; Tuesday and Thursday 11:30 AM to 11 PM; and Friday and Saturday 11:30 AM to 12:00 AM.
