| - I went to North York just to try it. The line wasn't that long when I went on Saturday around 2:30. I waited maybe 10 minutes?
I sat at the middle bar area, the space is really cramped. There were two lines, one for the dessert, one for the ramen. Also, when I was seated I saw the line getting long.
I ordered their Shio Clam Broth Ramen with a tamago. I was worried that the egg would be hard boiled, as it was mentioned in several reviews, but nope it was soft boiled. Very nice texture.
The noodle itself is thin but chewy. The clam broth was nice. I couldn't taste the mushroom sauce, but I did taste a bit of the truffle sauce. The bamboo shoot was crunchy. I didn't like their chashu, it tasted more like chicken than pork, it was also very thin. The bowl with the egg costed $17 so it is expensive. It also has less portion than Santouka. So it's expensive but I feel is a pretty good bowl of ramen.
I also grabbed a matcha brownie from their dessert place, it tasted great, soft and moist. Nice matcha flavor. Although pretty small piece for $3.50. I saw someone grabbing a matcha soft serve, this also looked really delicious. Although a bit cold for today.
