Pei Wei Asian Diner announced today the debut of a new dish, conceived
to revolutionize the way people think about everyday ramen noodles.
Featuring fresh and savory ingredients prepared in Pei Wei’s trademark
wok style, Japanese Chile Beef Ramen demolishes the notion of
dehydrated, pre-packaged dorm room fare.
The new dish combines egg noodles glazed in a soy mirin-chile sauce,
wok-seared vegetables and flank steak, topped with a sprinkling of
cilantro and a kiss of lime. Beginning August 31, it will be available
at all Pei Wei locations.
“People assume the only way to eat ramen noodles is from packaged, dried
blocks, but I think that’s a disservice to both ramen and Japanese
cuisine in general,” said Chef Eric Justice, Director of Culinary
Operations for Pei Wei Asian Diner. “We created Japanese Chile Beef
Ramen to show the world that there’s amazing flavor to be found in
ramen dishes, you just have to defy expectations.”
-
The beef can be substituted for chicken, shrimp or vegetables & tofu
-
The price ranges from $6.75 – $7.95
-
The dish can be ordered according to customers’ dietary needs, and
also in a reduced-calorie version made with stock-velvet in place of
cooking oil upon request
“Fasten your seat belt because the Ramen revolution has begun,” said
Chef Justice. “Our goal is to offer Asian food lovers an exciting and
flavorful new experience… and to finally give ramen noodles the
redemption they deserve.”
