A RAMEN REMIX Make ramen with chef Roy Choi Slide an egg into the broth And put on cheese sesame seeds and colorful greens Serve it up See a smile Roy says good food makes smiles
Chef Roy Choi can chop an onion in an instant carve a mouse out of a mushroom He’s cooked in fancy restaurants for rock stars and royalty But he’d rather cook on a truck
Roy calls himself a street cook He wants outsiders low-riders kids teens shufflers and skateboarders to have food cooked with care with love with sohn-maash Sohn-maash 손맛 is the flavors in our fingertips It is the love and cooking talent that Korean mothers and grandmothers mix into their handmade foods
