My next episode in my epic Miami Street Food series is all about Chinese street food! Come along with me and my dad as we enjoy some of the best Chinese street food in Miami!
My dad and I hit up In Ramen in South Miami to get a taste of authentic Chinese street food. They specialize in buns and dim sum, as well as tons of unique ramen varieties. They also sell craft beer!
Inside, we met Matt, who showed me how to make noodles. He beats them, cuts them into portions, and then pulls them into noodles. Then, they go in boiling water for 10-15 seconds and then they’re done!
Then, I checked out their dim sum steamers, which are super hot! They make chicken shumai, pork shumai, dumplings, and more in them. They only take 3-4 minutes to steam. Some of the other dim sum items take up to 12 minutes, so they have timers in the kitchen for everything.
We ordered bao, shumai, edamame, gyozas, pork belly buns, shrimp dumplings, spicy crab buns, and dab fries. We also got their number one ramen, the short rib ramen! The meat was so tender it fell off the bone! The dab fries had two different sauces on them and dried tuna flakes.
After he steamed the buns, he built them. Then, he steamed and pan fried some chicken gyozas and then melted parmesan cheese on top of them. I couldn’t wait to try it!
In Ramen is super spacious, and they have lots of cool artwork on the walls. They have a large octopus on the walls, as well as a guy eating a bowl of ramen. It feels a lot like Asian street art! Best of all, they have no menu, you just scan it.
At our table, we had an incredible spread of everything Matt prepared for us, as well as a fright of three different sakes.
We started with the ramen. The broth was super rich and flavorful chicken broth. Then, I dug in with chopsticks to get at the noodles, which were soft and made me feel like I was in China. The short ribs were so tender and buttery. I let it soak up some of the broth. So yummy! It was truly unbelievable and felt very homey.
Then, we jumped into the real Chinese street food: the buns! They’re my favorite thing to have in Shanghai. We started with the pork belly bun, which was nice and juicy and had avocado and a delicious sauce in it. The bun was also really soft. It was even tastier with the spicy miso sauce, which was spicy but good!
Then, we went for the sake, which included mango and white peach flavors. They were some of the best sakes I’ve ever hand! I loved the milky, cloudy one!
Next up was the spicy crab bun, which contained spicy crab with mayo, cilantro, and avocado on a soft bun. It was so chunky and creamy. The spicy miso took the flavor to another level!
The parmesan gyoza was next. They’re basically potstickers with parmesan cheese. I loved the crispy parmesan with the soft gyoza. With the spicy miso, it was outstanding! One of the great things about Chinese cuisine is the soy-based sauces, which go well with everything.
Next were the fries and the edamame dumplings. They had edamame beans throughout. Then I tried them with the spicy mayo, which went really well with it.
Then, we had a bao, which was sweet and contained fantastic pork. It took us back to our trip to Shanghai in 2015! After that was the chicken shumai, which were very compact and tasty. Next were the shrimp dumplings, which are my favorites! They are soft and heavenly with a big piece of shrimp inside.
Then, we finished with a custard bao, which was a soft and creamy hot dessert! My dad’s favorite was the ramen, but I loved the buns. They’re like Chinese tapas. The pork belly one was my favorite overall!
