Jeonpo ramen restaurant with level 3 spicy broth, Busan: Ryusenso

A few days ago I visited a tonkotsu ramen restaurant I absolutely love!! It's Ryusenso, a Jeonpo ramen spot that anyone who hangs around Jeonpo a lot will know 💃🏻💃🏻

Finding Ryusenso near Jeonpo Station, open 24 hours

Ryusenso is a 24-hour ramen restaurant near Jeonpo Station on Seojeon-ro 58beon-gil in Busan. The sign isn't super noticeable, so I took a photo for anyone who hasn't seen it. Finding a place to eat solo around Seomyeon and Jeonpo is surprisingly hard, but this place is such a good spot for solo dining!!!!

You can see it clearly says 24 at the entrance right? Apparently there's a break time from 7:00 to 10:00 haha

How to order at Ryusenso and what comes on the table

Ryusenso's menu is a check-with-a-pen kind of system. Kind of reminds me of Ichiran ramen haha

On the table there was water, chopsticks, a small plate, sesame seeds, pepper, shichimi, pickled mustard greens, minced garlic, and pickled ginger all set up haha

About 8 counter seats: good for solo diners or two to three people

Ryusenso's seating is all counter (dachi) seats, and there are only about 8 of them, so it's not roomy, but it seems perfect for 2 to 3 people!!! haha

Since it's set up as an open kitchen like this, you can watch the whole cooking process, which I liked even more!!! It felt clean and trustworthy 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Turns out the owner of this place also runs several well-known restaurants? Definitely someone who really knows their food, I'd say 👍🏻👍🏻 There was even a note posted about how to enjoy the ramen 👏🏻👏🏻

Ryusenso Ramen and Ryusenso Kara level 3: how spicy is it?

We ordered the Ryusenso Ramen (Hakata tonkotsu ramen) and the Ryusenso Kara (Hakata spicy tonkotsu ramen) at level 3!!! Ta-da—

There was a decent variety of side dishes too, so I was torn between gyoza dumplings and karaage, but karaage won out and that's what we ordered 🍗🍗

Can you see the color of the broth??? Since it's level 3, the broth is bright red hahahaha I ordered level 3 riding on spicy-food confidence, but since I haven't been eating spicy food much lately, it was definitely spicy? lol

My companion ordered the basic tonkotsu ramen, and when I tried a sip of the broth, it was rich without being greasy and really delicious 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I always think next time I'll order the non-spicy version, but somehow I always end up ordering spicy haha

Wood ear mushrooms, sesame seeds and minced garlic in the bowl

Do you like wood ear mushroom? I love it so much 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻 Slurping it up together with the ramen noodles is so good 🤤🤤 Next time I need to add extra wood ear mushroom!!!! haha

I also sprinkled the sesame seeds from the table onto the ramen and tried it that way haha While eating, I added some minced garlic too and it was a whole different flavor?? The broth was so rich and delicious. As for the pickled mustard greens that come with it, they were so good I kept helping myself to more haha

Ryusenso karaage and its two dipping sauces

Everyone!!!!! Ryusenso is also a karaage spot worth knowing about!!!!!! The karaage sauce was so, so good too? It comes with two sauces, and I found this mayonnaise-ish one to be the tastiest. I dipped the hot karaage right into it and devoured it haha

Who should try this 24-hour ramen spot in Jeonpo

Ta - da. Finished it all clean. Even with the pickled mustard greens and the spicy broth, I slurped down every last bit 🤣🤣🤣 Also, if you live nearby, delivery is apparently available too, so check the delivery apps and enjoy it comfortably at home — sounds so nice, I'm jealous 🤤🤤

24-hour ramen restaurants aren't common around Seomyeon and Jeonpo, so if you ever need a solo meal, I recommend giving this place a visit. I'll leave the location and info below 💕💕💕
