| - I was kind of craving for Wonton noodles, but unfortunately, my favorite noodle place was closed for Wednesday. I am too lazy to drive to another wonton noodle place so i decided to try Jyuban. It was a pretty chill place with some old Japanese song playing in the background. The place was extremely clean as how it always is in a Japanese noodle place. I decided to try to spicy bbq pork noodle. The waitress was really friendly and advised me to just try the first level of spiciness as there are three levels.
I waited for more than 20 minutes for my noodles when only seven other people in the restaurant. I thought the wait was a little bit too long, but I can definitely live with that. along came, my bbq pork ramen noodle with pork bone soup I think. I thought the soup was a little blant and the thickness of the noodle is a little thicker than I liked. However, I really like the fact that they don't place msg in the soup place. She kind of gave me the salt a little too late as I was half way thru my noodle already. I guess it is something new I learned eating at a no msg and low sodium place. I have a asked for the salt. It happened to me last time when i was eating at a really high class restaurant. I thought all their food were under salted. Might be the trend of healthy diet i guess.
But man, was the ramen spicy, but it is a weird kind of spiciness where it only hit the back of my throat. This is not the kind of spiciness I enjoyed. Oh well, the cha siu (bbq prok) was large in portions. There were three HUGE pieces, and I really like that. The soup base was a little thin though. Overall, the ramen was pretty good with good customer service. I would come back again, maybe try their rice dishes since I don't likr their hand made ramen that much.
I forgot to mention that the hotspring egg was absolutely delicious. Cheers!
