| - Randomly stumbled upon this place on a Tuesday for lunch with the BF. My first thought was that this place was so small. There were only about 6 tables and some seats at the bar. But we were here after 1:30 pm, so the place wasn't full, and it didn't feel cramped.
BF was immediately interested in trying the Jigoku (Hell) Ramen Level 3 ($10.95). I didn't know what I wanted since the menu was at good 10 pgs long. (And the more choices you give me the more indecisive i get.) The waitress (she might have been the manager as well) came over twice and when I still couldn't decide, she asked if I needed any recommendations. Even better! Now I didn't have to decide. She recommended to me the daily lunch special, which was a fish ramen in ginger broth ($7.99). Ok!
My fish ramen had so much ingredients in it. The bowl didn't look too massive, but I was stuffed by the end. It had 3 kinds of fish, tofu cubes, bean sprouts, green onion, cucumber, and sesame seeds. The broth was very light and the ginger flavour was subtle. I didn't feel thirsty after finishing my ramen, even though I drank a lot of the broth. Which was a good thing. The BF was a big fan of the ginger broth.
The hell ramen level 3 had cha siu, half an egg, black fungus, bamboo shoots, green onion, and sesame seeds. I tried a bit of the broth, and the spiciness really hits you afterwards. So you can taste the broth and get the kick afterwards. The waitress came by to check to see if the level 3 spiciness was too spicy for the BF. When the BF said it was ok for him, she informed him there was actually a secret level 4 spiciness that she only recommends to people who can handle level 3. For $1 more you can get a super spicy paste that the chief makes himself to add to the level 3 broth. The BF said he might try it next time.
Service was good. The waitress came by a few times to check on us. She was very nice and chatty, to the point the BF wasn't used to it. She was also really good at promoting the place. She asked us if this was our first time here, and we said yes. She told us there was a $6.99-$7.99 special for lunch everyday that is not advertised. You have to ask them about it. She also told us the chef had over 20 years of experience, there was a lot of things he knew how to make. So if there was anything we wanted to eat that wasn't on the menu, they might be able to make it for us as well.
I think the price was good for the portions you get. Especially the daily lunch special. So I think I will definitely be back again to try different things.
