Question 1

"How long is the queue at Ginza Kagari Melbourne?"

Accepted Answer

"During lunch peak (12pm to 1pm) and dinner peak (6pm to 7:30pm), expect 20 to 45 minutes. Off-peak times (opening at 11:30am or after 8pm) usually have little or no wait."

Question 2

"What is chicken paitan ramen?"

Accepted Answer

"Chicken paitan is a rich, creamy white broth made by boiling chicken bones for hours until the collagen emulsifies into a thick, almost bisque-like soup. It is lighter than tonkotsu (pork bone) but has a similar richness."

Question 3

"Is Ginza Kagari the same as the Tokyo original?"

Accepted Answer

"Yes. This is the first international outpost of the Ginza Kagari shop that earned cult status in Tokyo's Ginza district. The broth recipe and noodle spec are carried over from the original."

Question 4

"Does Ginza Kagari have vegetarian options?"

Accepted Answer

"The menu is focused on chicken-based ramen. There is no vegetarian broth option at this location. If you need plant-based ramen, other CBD ramen shops may be a better fit."
