About this programme item

Ramenhead is Cape Town’s contemporary ramen bar, celebrated for its high-energy atmosphere, bold umami flavours, and craft-driven approach. Inspired by traditional Japanese ramen and given a modern twist, it serves handcrafted noodles, slow-simmered broths, and carefully layered toppings for bowls built for the perfect slurp.

At the heart of the kitchen is the Yamato noodle machine-known as the Rolls-Royce of ramen machines-producing fresh, elastic noodles in-house daily. Broths cook low and slow for 8–18 hours, developing rich, complex flavours. Each bowl is finished with a precise mix of tare, aromatic oils, and indulgent toppings for depth and harmony in every bite.

Ramenhead offers a flavour-forward, fast-paced dining experience for purists and first-timers alike, capturing the spirit of the street while staying true to the discipline of ramen. It’s the perfect place to eat well and soak up Cape Town’s vibrant nightlife.
