About this spot
Three Wise Monkeys delivers authentic ramen that stands out against Cape Town's diverse dining scene, serving rich tonkotsu and hearty chashu pork bowls that feel like a warm hug after a windy day in Sea Point. The broth is simmered for hours to achieve a silky texture, while the toppings feature fresh green onions and perfectly cooked egg yolks that elevate every bowl.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order the extra chashu if you want more of the slow-cooked pork belly to soak up the savory broth.
- Bring your own chopsticks or ask for a pair, as some ramen bowls arrive with just a spoon and ladle.
- Save room for the gyoza dumplings served on the side, which have a crispy bottom and juicy filling.
