Nom, Nom, Nom!! This place is so yummy! I really can't say enough good things about it. Firstly, the Chili Goma Ramen is to die for. It is spicy (but not too spicy) and has this rich, complex flavour that I would eat every meal of every day, if I could. I certainly am no expert on Ramen, never having been to Japan, but it was seriously fantastic- the soup came in a huge bowl with a charming wooden ladle. The noodles were fresh and addictive and the extra pork that I ordered on top was delicious. I do wish there was a chicken version of their Ramen -maybe one day! We also ordered a large sake to have with the meal which was hot and delicious. And we had the tempura salmon roll which just melted in my mouth - it was so, so good! The service was friendly, a bit perfunctory but that's ok, and I was a bit disappointed in some inflexibility for our order (eg. When you order Ramen you can choose whether you want it lean or fatty - my hubby asked if he could have a couple of each and was told 'no'. Why would that be? It's obviously just added in top just before serving?) But that is a small quibble.
I hope there are plans for a SW location but until then we're going to keep making the trek - its worth it!
