The sheer number of Ramen shop openings have not slowed down, in fact it gathered a late upward momentum to the point when we saw 4-5 shops being opened within a week alone by the end of 2012. The change of pace in Hong Kong is purely astonishing,, I mean you could never have imagined that a sudden influx of Japanese based imported shops can all happen to open side-by-side by the next minute without planned synchronicity. No one could possibly catch up with the pace but some of us foodies
There’s only 1 ramen soup base here, Bonito Fish x Pork Tonkotsu. You can however choose from a variety of options, and thickness of noodles.
.
Konbu vinegar cuts back on the heavy pork smell. Chili and Garlic do precisely what they do, add Chili and Garlic influence. These were all Sauce related, but there are no Condiment add-ons like chili moyashi, takana, crushed garlic, beni shoga, etc.

The 1st shop to serve this super thick noodles in Hong Kong, and the noodles have improved from my last visit as it has more wheat taste and is now smoother but having better bite. Notice the Seaweed in the background – which has the shop’s name printed on it.

My 1st visit was more pleasant though 1 dimensional. The 2nd visit had the soup being super oily but too thin. Although the overall flavour was pleasant, a thin soup viscosity can't counter the floating oil layer at all. If they could improve the ‘oiliness’ aspect or else increase the Kotteri viscosity, it would be much better balanced.. This smells quite badly of pork smell and adding in the Wari soup was actually worse! Way too much rendered pork oil..
.
This was quite decent. Soft and has enough pork flavour, sliced evenly.
.
Decently priced for sure.. If only available to quench your quest as Ramen soups are packed with Umami naturally due to prolonged cooking and reduction. (Not necessarily due to additional MSG).
Could do with more marination but it’s one of the better ones around. My last egg was more runny than 2nd visit.
