It's worth searching out this understated noodle bar that fuses Japanese ramen with locally sourced Irish ingredients. It takes 36 hours to create a bowl of Belfast Shoyu Ramen: fresh, handmade ramen in a deep broth with pork shoulder and an egg poached in tea. There are vegan options, too. The name is a pun: bia means food in Irish.
