Upscale Korean restaurants in New York City have concocted their own adaptation of ram-don, the noodle dish that had a starring role in the Oscar-winning movie, “Parasite.”
An alchemy of ramen, udon and steak, the dish is a spin on the traditional Korean dish jjapaguri. It combines the cheap ingredients of two Korean instant noodle brands, Chapaghetti and Neoguri, with the not so cheap ingredient of premium sirloin.The irony of paying upward of $20 for an inexpensive dish featured in a film looking at wealth and class is not lost on its restaurateurs.
The price tag is justified, Kim said, because Cote doesn’t charge for the actual noodles. The cost only accounts for their housemade broth and a large portion of the American wagyu beef. Esther Choi, owner and chef of the Brooklyn Korean restaurant Mokbar, added that she currently serves ram-don with housemade noodles. It “wouldn’t make sense” to serve instant noodles at an upscale noodle shop like hers, she tells Eater.
Twitter was quick to praise these restaurants for adopting the grifting characteristics that"Parasite" embodied in the first place. God bless Korean restaurants for capitalizing on 'Parasite' by selling white people instant noodles for nearly $20
