| - I am very careful with these reviews, so before reviewing a place, I must have been to a that place at least 3 times. I have been here four times before this review.
First, you will notice that at night, this place tends to be somewhat busy, so the waiting time can be long, quite long sometimes.
The quality of the food has improved significantly since it reopened.
My first time here, I had a few sips and stopped eating the noodle due to the high concentration of salt in the broth. Additionally, the pork belly was so overcooked, blank and lacked the fat content - which is what defines the savoriness in pork belly. The soft egg was overcooked also.
On my second visit, I was able to finish most of the food. There seems to be a better balance in the broth, still it is sub-par.
On my third visit, I actually enjoyed the food! It was quite delicious. It is the complete opposite to the first visit. I was impressed and decided to make this one of my go-to - this is a big deal for me since because of my busy schedule, I eat out once or twice everyday.
Here comes the sad part, my fourth visit. After ordering food, I left the money there and left the place without getting my food - thus I cannot comment on the food this time, but I am sure it was going to be good. Before going here, I expected a somewhat long wait, so that was not the problem. Also I understand it is in our human nature to "go to" the people, whom we are attracted to, and it is in our understanding that serving a larger group means larger tip. But I just could not contain my disappointment when this happened.
I do not think I will ever come back to this place again and I will not recommend this place to any of my friend at ASU.
