Extra chashu and a whole egg float at the base of this large bowl of ramen, and in the center there is a generous portion of mixed steamed vegetables. Topping the entire bowl off is a large pinch of our fried burdock root, a labor of love that adds a textural contrast and an earthy flavor to the soup. The burdock is piled in a way that is representative of the volcano on Kagoshima which is still active to this day.Shimuja is known for its cozy atmosphere, selected by SunSentinel Travel & Life as one of the 18th best dishes in all of South Florida.

The Amalfi Llama reimagines the culinary landscape by seamlessly merging the allure of a rustic live-fire steakhouse with the flavors of Italian cuisine, culinary haven where genuine cooking, down-to-earth cuisine and stylish flair intertwine.

Embracing the essence of a modern farmhouse, The Amalfi Llama revolves around an open parrilla grill and wood-burning oven, harnessing fire, smoke, coals and embers to craft dishes that pay homage to coastal cultures across Patagonia and Italy.

The Amalfi Llama will soon deliver its ethos to two of the U.S.'s most attractive markets: Miami (Aventura) and San Diego.
