A ramen shop in Yunlin, Taiwan, recently introduced a new menu item that drew controversy on social media.





Asia has recently pleased with crazy recipes - then a Japanese YouTuber will cook a broth from poisonous jellyfish, then in Taiwanese the restaurant will serve soup with "Alien" ... This time it was the Taiwan - one local restaurant now offers visitors taste a dish called "Godzilla ramen". They say that in this soup has more than 40 different spices, but its main ingredient is without any doubt is the stewed paw of a crocodile, menacingly peeking out of dishes.



The restaurant announced the new product on its Facebook page, where The post quickly went viral. According to the creators of Godzilla Ramen, they were inspired by the popular isopod ramen, about which at the end of the last month said, it seems, every person in Taiwan. Looking for the same attention to the owner of a ramen shop in the city of Doulu, Taiwan's Yunlin County, came up with an even more shocking dish.

Learning how to cook crocodile soup during a trip to Thailand, the owner of the ramen "Witch Cat" has developed a recipe for ramen "Godzilla" and began to promote it on the Internet - I must say, with great success. Photos of bowls of soup with crocodile legs sticking out of them spread like wildfire in Taiwanese social networks and even abroad.

The paws for this ramen are reported to come with crocodile farm in Taitung, but it can supply enough the amount of ingredients is only for a couple of bowls of ramen a day, so Meals must be ordered in advance. One plate costs 1500 Taiwanese dollars. Apparently, the restaurant also has "food waste fee" of NT$100 for people, who order a dish solely to take a picture, and leave it untouched.

Although Godzilla ramen has attracted a lot of attention, online reviews so far have been mostly negative, with many blaming ramen "Witch cat" in shameless marketing. "It's just awful! Who will risk it eat?! It’s scary to even look at!” commented one user.
