Last month, Dori Hand Roll Bar and Ramen opened in the Camelback Colonnade. Under the leadership of acclaimed chef Jared Lupin, Dori offers an authentic Asian-inspired menu, and everything is made to order. Among its signature dishes is Miso Yummy ($1315), a hyper customizable ramen. Its base, in addition to Mazeman-style noodles, is a combination chicken and pork broth that Lupin learned to make from a Japanese chef during time he spent overseas. Both the dish’s roasted pork shoulder and Japanese barbeque pork belly – Chashu – are cooked in the broth as well as paired with it in the actual dish. A combination of blistered corn, hard boiled or six-minute eggs, garlic paste, fish cakes, scallions, garlic and ginger oils, carved carrots and nori are also available in the creamy, savory, smoky dish. 1928 E.
