| - After driving by this place several times, I've been repeatedly checking the grand opening day online, hoping for a new lunch spot close to work! I came here for lunch with a group of 6 coworkers and just to be safe we arrived at 11:30 to avoid any lines. It's a good thing we did, shortly after noon the line started to form. This is quite a small restaurant as well, however a ramen meal is pretty quick, I wouldn't imagine the wait to be too long.
I ordered the Kyouka ramen. I didn't have high expectations to begin with as they didn't have my usual tonkotsu go to broth. This one was a chicken broth and it even had a slice of chicken and pork instead of the pork belly. To my surprise it was very tasty! I enjoyed the broth the most, it was nice and rich as well had small chunks of fat. The ramen had a nice smokey flavour to it which I quite like. I also enjoyed the toppings, the chicken had a nice smokey taste to it, the pork was not as fatty as I like however it was still very good and soft, as well I enjoyed the leeks and dabble of spice that they place on top of the ramen. The downfall was the noodles, I felt the noodles could be better or a little more chewy.
All in all, will definitely return for this ramen and looking forward to trying the chicken wing karaage next time!
