After recommendation from the Yelpers, I got a chance to try out this restaurant. Be prepared to wait not inside the store but standing outside cold on the street. I got a number waiting to be called. The menu is posted on the window with no English explanation. With the help of reading the Yelper's reviews in advance, I am able to know which one I like.
The soup is milky pork bone broth. There are 2 halves of running liquid yolk boiled to its perfection, chopped onions, 2 pieces of pork belly and the black fungus (). You have to consume the soup while eating the ramen. The ramen is chewy and has a very good texture.
It is recommended to have a cup of tea to go with the soup as it is so concentrated. The tea is the Takaokaya green tea roasted with brown rice (Genmai Cha). It is a 100% pure Japanese tea in tea bags from Shizuoka (), the foothills of Mt. Fuji. I heard the Takaokaya teas are grown in strict accordance with international environmental management standard ISO14001. Even so, it is expensive for $2 a cup.
The servers are very polite and always smiling. It is a small store but cozy though a bit congested. The bathrooms are at the basement with a very steep staircase.
