Best Halal Chicken Paitan Ramen in New York

“The same hours-long, bones-simmered-to-cloudiness technique as tonkotsu — just built on halal-certified chicken instead of pork.”

Halal Chicken Paitan Ramen

What the real thing tastes like

Traditional tonkotsu ramen's signature cloudy, collagen-rich broth comes from pork bones simmered for many hours. This version applies the identical long-simmer technique to halal-certified chicken bones and feet instead, producing a comparably rich, opaque broth without any pork, so the dish stays true to the technique that defines the category rather than serving a thinner substitute.

People keeping halal often say this is the first ramen that gave them the tonkotsu experience they'd only heard described, rather than a lighter shoyu or shio bowl offered as the halal-friendly option by default. Broth richness and cook time are the two things reviewers watch closest, same as with pork tonkotsu.
