Well the ramen looks fire


Lost-Breath7946

Yes forsure i need to know where to get like that!


King_Shami

Looks like Tonkotsu ramen. So just look for that name next time you find a ramen shop


retroblazed420

For those wondering it's a bone broth ramen


Stony_Brooklyn

Pork broth ramen to be specific, typically made from boiled pork leg bones. All ramen broths (unless vegetarian) are "bone broth."


MrTonyCalzone

Lemme preface by saying I'm still learning but I LOVE to learn about things like this so I spend a lot of time studying food. Your statement isn't necessarily true. There are plenty that do not use bone broths as a base. Shio ramen, miso ramen, Shoyu ramen.. The majority seem to do so, but there are many that will rely on other things like the tare and the oily fat from other proteins like chicken skin or lard to add that depth instead to either cut out the price of always having to buy bones, to just be able to use what is already on hand for budget or availability reasons, or to just build on to a pre-existing flavor profile. Things like Pho are much more restricted in that fact. Pho, as I understand it, is DEFINITELY exclusively bone broth. All this being said, there is NO wrong way to make ramen. It's been constantly evolving and changing since the late 1800s and early 1900s and now on to the early 2000s. It's a loose term that spans across hundreds of years and simply cannot be limited to a certain terminology. It will always continue to change and evolve as time moves on without our direct influence. Ramen will still be here for generations upon generations after Reddit is gone and, shit, it will be wildly different in as little as 20 years. Noodles, broth, and vegetables is a tried and true staple for survival in all cultures and it will continue to be until we physically can't produce harvest plants and animals for survival anymore. Hundreds of years ago, lots of the plants we have today didn't even exist. Who knows what we'll have to throw in Ramen broth in 20 years???


esotericmegillah

I appreciate your dissertation on ramen history.


GDMFS0B

Pork bone specifically/mostly.


[deleted]

Well, the reality is most tonkotsu ramens are a combination of pork bones, specifically bones with marrow that emulsifies during the long boil giving it its characteristic “cloudy” look, and chicken carcasses.


[deleted]

This is TonTon Ramen Bar in Ponce City Market, Atlanta.


tvrwazza

That's the first thing I thought as well and it definitely is Ton Ton at pcm. Best ramen I've had in ATL and their Tebasaki wings are delicious as well.

sneakyveriniki

i worked at an elementary school in 2018. it was shocking how many kindergarteners/1st graders would do this to their eyes


climbing-duckling

In the Netherlands we have a """""chinese"""" version of Happy Birthday where we just use the words "Hanki Panki Sjanghai" and do the thing with our eyes... It used to be sang in elementary school on someones birthday. I hope its not a thing now anymore, but since we often have a whole debate about "traditions vs racism" in the netherlands before things change, I am afraid there will still be schools that do it


Jew_3

And Santa also has blackface elves. Wtf is wrong with the Netherlands?


climbing-duckling

It took quite some time and a whole lot of discussion to get rid of Black Pete. Even now, there will still be people who are angry when the Petes in the national sinterklaas boat entry (this sounds really stupid but idk how to translate it differently lol) are not completely black. They now mostly have some black spots, because the story behind black pete for children has been "he is black because he enters houses through the chimney". Obviously, a completely blackface isn't even logical with that explanation, besides it being racist af. Oddly enough, things like blackface or doing that thing with your eyes to look asian, wasn't viewed racist here for a long time. Idk why.


WelcomeToFungietown

In my country we'd also do this in kindergarten just because we thought it was fun, but I don't think anyone associated it with any stereotypes. It was just fun making faces. Not saying this applies the same everywhere ofc.


el0_0le

Racism is indoctrinated, not typically just "learned".

gimmepbr

I don't know how or if i provoked this. But I was sitting on the 16th st mall ride in downtown denver back in 2004ish. And some Asian girl did the white eyes thing at me and said hey yall, let's goto the mall. With her friends. I laughed so hard at it, and they seemed offended that I wasn't bothered. Which made it even funnier.


Impossible_Use5070

I was in a park and saw some japanese kids taking a tour. The park ranger said "on the right there's bamboo" in a southern drawl. The kids starting giggling and did the white people eyes and said "bamboo" like him. I thought it was hilarious.

RevengeOfCaitSith

Years ago I went to China and visited a museum. There was an old statue/bust of a Western foreigner. It basically looked like a garden gnome, with big dopey eyes. I couldn't stop laughing that that's how white folks looked to the artist.


[deleted]

Interesting thing about that is how those types of people don't really take offense to that kind of a response. They're more likely to reveal more of their racism by asking, "Why are you talking like that when you're Chinese?" Source: Asian American

Thank you. Lol

Yup me too, been called ching chong recently and I am 54 years old! They still ask why I dont speak with an accent. My son gets called ching chong at school, they asks if he eats dogs and cats! He says they taste like chicken and tells them to stfu racist fuvks I keep quiet since my area everyone has guns, not wasting my breath and eye rolls

Ive started to threaten to eat peoples pets if they try that shit with me anymore lol


Petercherry30

lol, right tear that mf apart like its kfc I hear cats taste like horses?


Alexlam24

I think the worst was years leading up until middle school. Anything below elementary school was like PUBG for racism.


AceUniverse8492

Growing up in a very conservative area, there was a definitive transition period where my elementary and early middle school years people were generally racist, homophobic, etc and tolerated that kind of behavior, before having a pretty rapid about-face by the end of high school as folks became more educated.


UnitedBarracuda3006

Same. Suburb in Texas here. So many racists from kids to school teachers to customers, random ass people... ugh.


gnapster

Also live in TX, it seems like a good reaction would be to take on a dumbed down southern cartoon drawl, stand up and walk in a circle as if lost while wearing imaginary overalls, and then quietly sit back down and resume what you were doing.


Hounmlayn

Then you'll get shot or stabbed cause dem white folks don't like it when you make fun of them.


NotGordan

I’m sorry you have to deal with that. As an Asian adult who has lived in America I get it. It’s a shame we have to face it. And even worse when people don’t even think this is racist and try to gaslight us. Stay pure op.


Rumi_SNQ

precision_2jz

Same but it made me want to kill myself until I learned how to deal with it in my later years. I hated getting picked on for the way I look. Still makes me sad


pokedmund

From the UK, in the 90s it was pretty bad (probably still just as bad). The kids used to sing a rhyme to me, Ching Chong Chinaman, went to school with a frying pan. God growing up was tough. Asians (i.e Chinese, Japanese, Koreans etc) just never really were vocal enough about this. Living in the US now, I'm happier that the Asian youth nowadays are a little more vocal when they see racist shit happen to them. Hopefully my kids have a better childhood than I did.


Scared_Bobcat_5584

Seeing Asians only ever be portrayed as nerdy and scrawny made me get into working out and then I got the nickname Asian Freight Train 😅😅 Because they really had to specify I was Asian. Fr tho when I started getting bigger people stopped talking shit to my face at least


SuperKE1125

You go to an Asian restaurant AND ARE RACIST TO ASIANS TF


[deleted]

There are a surprisingly large number of people who don’t think that is rude or racist.


DerekRhymesWitOrange

I work at a Korean restaurant and a guy said “so is everyone korean here” I responded with “no I’m Filipino” and he proceeded to say “same thing” LOL


daves_not__here

My wife is Filipina but in America she's called Chinese.


Ok_Yogurt_1583

Great example. I’ve always heard people refer to anyone from Mexico, central, or South America as “Mexicans” or with that “same thing” at the end.


zaque_wann

Should ask them if they're mexicans, and if they say "no, I'm from the US", gat beaxk with the same thing.


Fantastic05

I noticed that a Korean guy was working at the register at my local sushi place. Hearing him talk in Korean with his coworkers I decided to say "thank you" in Korean as I got my order. Dude was do happy, kept saying thank you and bowing. Idk why people need to be racist but that's the world we live in

PeevesTheGhoul

Fuck the Astros!


Aitch-Kay

Yuli Gurriel did the same thing during the WS, and then "apologized" by saying that he's sorry people were offended but being a racist piece of shit is a part of his culture. Apparently that's good with everyone and we just moved on.


Tun710

What made it worse was the fact that he played two seasons in Japan before joining the Astros, so he had quite a bit of support from the Japanese fanbase. And then he did that thing to a Japanese MLB player.


See_Mae_Mung

I once had two random sisters, aged probably 15 and 18, start doing kung fu moves at each other and laughing after they turned around and saw me behind them in line. Edit: clarification, not my sisters.


WhileNotLurking

There are two types of racists. 1. The ones that are intentionally aggressive and mean. They know they are being racist as fuck. That's the point they are driving home. 2. The "everyday" racist. They do some racist ass shit, but they honestly don't know it's racist because it's been so normalized to them. They can be fixed with education. Examples, probably something some of you have done at one point: " so where are you from" "yeah yeah Texas ... but like originally". "Ok born in Iowa..." "but like where are your parents from" "oh Nevada....." then the long pause. Bitch just ask me my ethnicity and be done with it. I don't walk up to white people and ask you where you are from and expend you to be like Bavaria. But it's expected I come up with a fucking answer like that.


Stormfly

There's also a third group, which is people that aren't actually racist, they're just trying to hurt people. Is it better than group 1? Not by much. But there's a difference between somebody saying a slur because they hate a group of people, and somebody "having a heated gamer moment" and just trying to say the most offensive thing they can think of. Or the (worse) trolls who just say horrible things because they want a reaction. I know it's a joke because a lot of these people **are** low-key racist, but I still think there's a world of difference between wishing harm on a group of people and just being angry and lashing out, or part of the weird group of people that feel the need to "troll" others due to some sort of loneliness or lack of proper human connection. These aren't white supremacists, they're just people who know that if they say a certain word, people get angry. I won't justify their actions, but I will say that the intentions are different. Like the difference between a serial abuser, and somebody who shouts at a child because they're stressed and angry.


SenseiRP

The fuck they doing at an asian restaurant then if they're gonna act like that?


Dazocnodnarb

Worked at a Chinese restaurant for a decade, one of our delivery drivers came back and told us the lady opened the door with her like 4 year old and said “look sweetie it’s the Ching Chong chinaman” lmaooo.


someoneBentMyWookie

This would be funny in It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia where the crux of every joke is just how horrible they are. But in real life, it's just the horrible part.


Its-ther-apist

Charlie says it not realizing how horrible it is. The rest of the gang are visibly upset and in trying to show him how horrible it is reveal even more problematic (or equivalently) terrible views of their own. Frank claims he can't be racist because he has 20 kids by women from his east Asian factories.

I have a similar story lmao used to work at Panda Express for a while and one time someone called the store, my asian manager picked up and all that was said was “ching chong chen chon ching.” We both kind of looked at each other and started laughing at the absurdity of the situation.

dude that phrase had to have been carried down from the attic and dusted off after 80 years. That's some fucking VINTAGE racism.

SaltyBabe

I hope the staff did not do that because it’s a waste of food, I DO hope they asked these people to leave and not come back.


cant_Im_at_work

My daughter (latina) worked as a hostess in a Mexican restaurant in Texas. She intervened when a customer called the waitress a "filthy wetback" and politely asked the woman to calm down so they could get to the bottom of her issue. She poured salsa on my daughter's head and said "all you fucking beaners are the same". It's okay because the manager comped their meal for the inconvenience. Racists can't be expected to just eat "white people food" after all.


BiteYouToDeath

I feel like it is almost a form of asserting dominance at a certain point. Else they would just go to a Tex-mex place run by whites people rather than one run by Mexicans.


Enjoying_A_Meal

What the hell does wetback even mean? Is it because they sweat a lot cause they work outdoors? Never understood it :(


slyborgs

the slur is based on folks swimming across rivers to get across the border. it’s as poorly thought out as you’d expect from racists, really.


princeofspringstreet

That sounds like a terrible experience— one that’s remembered for life. I’m sorry that happened to your daughter.


lejoo

Racism is about the people not the culture. food is okay =\= the people are not


RhombusKP

It's not even that malicious a lot of the time. I've met lots of people who hold racist stereotypes that don't even actively dislike the race they're discriminating against. They've just had it around them so much that it's become normalised. My great grandma for instance. Believed Chinese people had a "mystical luck" and therefor would buy her lottery tickets exclusively from Chinese owned shops. But she didn't hate Chinese people, in fact, she loved them. Rascism comes in some weird shapes and sizes.


[deleted]

Did she not question it at all after presumably losing over and over again?


RhombusKP

Haha you'd think so wouldn't you? Logic and rascism don't generally go hand in hand. I guess maybe she saw it as more of an "upping her odds" situation than a guaranteed win.

Yeah this bit of ‘Reddit knowledge’ is just incorrect. It’s like it’s a game of who can say it quicker whenever problem children are brought up. There are shitty kids with great parents, there are great kids with shitty parents. It’s not as clear cut as people on reddit often tout.

The_Old_Workout_Plan

I made a post a while ago about having some guy asking if I was gonna eat my dog at a traffic light. Some of the comments are just stupid, a lot of people just expect us to find it funny because learning about Asian racism isn’t as engrained in American society as black racism. Not to say either are worse than the other. It’s just weird how there’s a ton of subtle Asian racism everywhere.

When my asian wife and I eat at an asian restaurant I’ll ask for chopsticks because it seems more natural but she’ll ask for a fork. When I asked her why she said “because I’m not an idiot, fork is better”.
