The crossover was created in partnership with Japanese ramen restaurant Menya Musashi, and aims to entice fans of the popular steaming soup and noodle dish to try the new offering. The pizza has the toppings of a typical Tonkotsu ramen (a broth made with pork bones), including thick ramen noodles, pork slices, white sesame, fresh chili, and a half-boiled egg in the middle. Spring onions and bamboo shoots are even served on the side. Only available in Taiwan, the large pizza costs NT$450 (US$15.30). In March, Pizza Hut launched a sweet Kyoto matcha mochi pizza, which proved a hit on Instagram.
