Red Robin offers ramen burger nationwide


How about this gourmet combination, ramen noodles and Red Robin?

The latest addition to the restaurant chain's gourmet line of burgers is the "Red Ramen Burger," which features a bun made of tiny compressed noodles.

The burger is available for a limited time nationwide from April 4 through June 5.

The first ramen noodle-inspired burger was created by Keizo Shimamoto at a Brooklyn food festival in 2013, according to Mashable.

"We closely follow emerging trends, and when the ramen burger first debuted, our culinary team worked to develop Red Robin's take on the foodie favorite, enabling us to be the first to offer it nationally," Jonathan Muhtar, Red Robin's senior vice president and chief marketing officer, said in a release.

Red Robin's version features a burger served on a seasoned ramen noodle bun topped with teriyaki and a medley of chili-infused shredded cabbage, carrot and onion.

To celebrate the launch of the Red Ramen Burger the company is offering it for 22 cents to the first 22 college students who order it April 19. Other customers who order the burger that day will get it for a $2.22 discount off the regular price.
