Imagine you’re a Kaiju sitting along the streets after a long hard day of destruction, slurping down a bowl of warm delicious ramen! Reminisce the destruction of cities and an ever-increasing kill count, replay the chorus of screams and cries as you garnish your noodles with the roofs of sky scrappers that once towered over the horizon. Take a sip of the delicious broth that warms your belly for there is no better reward than a steaming hot bowl of ramen. Let out a hearty roar, after all, there’s no ramen like Kaiju’s Ramen!
Designed by Ilustrata, Kaiju’s Ramen brings together their love of Japanese food and Kaijus, “It’s quite funny to imagine these giant creatures doing other things when they aren’t destroying the city.”
