| - I was in the Downtown area when I suddenly began craving Ramen so I took to Yelp, as I normally do, and checked to see if there were any Ramen restaurants nearby. This was first on the list because of distance, and I guess, because of their name (hey, it was kinda catchy!), my boyfriend and I decided to give it a try.
Tip: It's definitely a little hard to find if you're not really paying attention. It's actually inside the Ogden hotel, where upon walking in, the restaurant is through the doors to your right. They don't have signage anywhere to my knowledge, we only figured out that we passed it when we saw people eating ramen inside and paper along the glass saying "entrance this way" and arrows pointing behind us.
The noodles were nothing spectacular. They were decent. I ordered mine with the Tonkotsu broth and no additional toppings because they're all at extra cost. It was quite surprising to see that even the oil had an additional charge. Oil??? All of the other Ramen restaurants are so generous in leaving oils, sesame seeds, togadashi etc on the side of our table.
The layout of their restaurant is really nice and is decorated with hip paintings. The staff are friendly, and at the time that we went, around 6pm on Sunday, there was only one table of people eating. Quiet.
It's a bit pricey for what you get and it's definitely not something I would recommend to friends if we were craving Ramen, but if I'm in the area and I'm in the mood for Ramen, who knows, maaaaaybe I'll come back. But perhaps not.
