Walk past this while hungry. Had the tonkotsu ramen and the broth was well cooked however over seasoned making it slightly on the salty side. The portion is big and the braised pork was perfectly cooked Had the Japanese styled milk tea which tasted oddly similar to pokka milk tea
Visited on 12 Dec, close to 8 pm, for dinner. The male staff (cannot remember his name) was really friendly and patiently explained the options and different soup bases that suited our taste. The tonkatsu soup base ramen was really good, not too salty, but the pork was a bit tough. The dipping ramen was on the sweeter side, which didn't suit my taste.
Nice Ramen Noodle. Know your taste and get the right one. 1) Bankara Ramen - Like rich, pork base soyou and abit salty, Yellow noodle. 2) Miso Ramen - miso base, strong taste, thick gravy, yellow noodle with lots of Onions. 3) Tonkotsu Ramen - normal rich, pork base, white thin noodle, chashu abit salty mix well with the soup.
