| - Met up with my friend for a quick bite before another's Bachelor party. You know how that Charlie XCX song goes "Boom! Clap! The sound of my heart..."? That was this restaurant's front door every time someone opened the outer door. There was a strong enough vacuum the inner door would always bang, despite being closed. In the background is a pleasant mix of JPOP/JROCK/CPOP and other softer songs.
Restaurant size:
This is a small place! We arrived there at 5:30pm on a Friday night and it was already getting busy. By the time we finished at around 6:30, there was starting to be a crowd of patient-not-really customers.
Portion size:
We wanted to eat EVERYTHING. I mean, everything looked so good in those menus...
I decided to try the standard House Tonkotsu with an Asahi Black, and it was sufficient. However, compared with Kinton, it seems like the noodle portion was a bit small, though delicious still.
Food quality:
Did not have any doubts about the quality, and was fine throughout the rest of the night! Pork belly was delish.
Service:
Only one server, but she did a stellar job handling the entire busy restaurant!
Final thoughts:
As Kinton Bowlers, we felt there could have been a bit more to the ramens, in addition to the amount of noodles. But aside from comparisons to a different restaurant "a city away", it was a pleasant bowl of ramen. We might come back for different ramens another time!
