Ajisen Ramen($5.95)...
Tonkotsu Broth I do have to say I enjoy but then I naturally enjoy and set a preference for this type of Broth over other selections. It was a Milky Broth and at the same time Tonkotsu is always satisfying much like a Beef Stew on those cold nights. Unfortunately, the Broth was the highlight of this meal. 2.5 *Star*
The Chashu and Marinated Egg looked like what I SHIT out from a bad meal. The Noodles is what I believe is highly discussed when anyone goes to Ajisen and so I will also give my honest opinion.
It is slurp-able but uses the Straight style rather than Wrinkled which needs a longer slurp to consume what a small wrinkled slurp could have done. Wrinkled are more playful and also what most of us are more accustomed to as well.
The CHEW after the slurp is where I believe most will dislike as it is somewhat a Spaghetini style Ramen with an Al-dente core which means when you bite into it, it doesn't bounce back and the uncooked mid-core gives off that distinct raw Noodle flavour that doesn't complement the Broth but fights it instead.
In terms of the appearance of this Ajisen, while it has the usual unique Bowl Museum on the side wall and the Sumo Photo Wall. The pink benches and seats were really showing wear & tear and I didn't imagine how unappealing it could be but this Ajisen has now showned me this visual aspect should be budgeted for the next make-over.
