Wakayama used to be in IFC serving Japanese food with quite a variety such as ramen, tempura, curry and snacks. This was my first visit to the shop and after it’s been relocated in Wanchai.The shop can sit around 30 people with a patio for a dozen of diners when weather permits. Better to visit in small groups.
Unlike those ramen specialists in town that only offer a narrow choice of ramen (just with variations in the intensity of soup base/seasoning or noodles cooking time, etc.), one like me may have difficulty to choose among wagyu beef, pork or the traditional char-siu (sliced pork) from the menu in Wakayama because I would like to try many of them.
a) Wakayama Ramen和歌山拉麵 ($105) – 8/10
In my first visit, I picked the signature Wakayama ramen to sample. With a clear broth, the soya sauce like soup didn’t impress me when it arrived. The large bowl contrasted with a single, small slice of char-siu, half egg and a fistful of noodle gave a feeling of a small portion served. However, on a sip of the broth, my taste buds were awaken by the intense flavour of the bonito (鰹魚) used for making the soup base. The ramen was slightly thicker than the ones commonly found, cooked to al dante. The char-siu and egg were not much to mentioned. The pencil-like Thai asparagus was with tough stems that beyond chewable.b) Deep Fried Chicken Gristle 山椒鳥唐揚 ($48) – 8.5/10
This dish was beyond my expectation. In the dish I could find chicken thigh and fillet which gave different textures, especially some with skin to give a crispiness. The meat was lightly seasoned with pepper and salt, and with a perfect thin coat of corn starch or flour. I would definitely order a beer if I were not working in the afternoon.02.2014
