| - It's been a while since we have been here but we were looking for something different to eat for Sunday lunch, so we decided to give this place a try.
We walked in at noon on a Sunday and the place wasn't that busy, maybe just another table next to us. My friend who got there before me told me that they were trying to make them sit at a round table instead of the long tables, but in the end they did sit us at the long tables.
Once we sat down, we were looking at the menus. There are enough choices on the menu, but not a super amount of variety in their dishes. Each one of us ordered a ramen (pork cheek, pork belly, grilled chicken and striploin beef). In addition we got a seafood pancake and ginger chicken.
The portions are not very large. I was not particularly hungry that day so I ate about 2/3 of my bowl, but compared to other ramen places, they didn't have a lot of noodles in there. Also they didn' thave much toppings aside from egg, black fungus (wood ear) and some green onions. I chose the tomato broth which is tomato with the tonkaseu broth. REally like this broth BTW.
The pork cheek was seasoned quite well. The only thing I didn't like was that the pieces were HUGE. like bigger than the palm of my hand - i got 3 pieces, which i appreciate the amount of protein compared to some of the other choices my friends got... but seriously my mouth was all dirty because i had to bite into the pork cheek with such a large piece lol. But seriously, throw in some corn or something... it just seems so empty without much other toppings.
the noodles were cooked well, but nothing spectular about the noodles.
My friend got the pork belly. three thin pieces of pork belly, not much meat if you ask me.
grilled chicken was okay, didn't look that appetizing though. and then the beef... on the menu makes it sound like steak ramen. it is NOT steak ramen. it was literally the 'fatty beef' one gets from the grocery store for HOT POT. like 3-4 slices. seriously. I was so not impressed that i didn't even want to take a picture (my fiance got that option).
The seafood pancake was quite good. there was a lot of cabbage in there and some egg, quite tasty, portion was a bit small (it's like the size of a pancake for 5 bucks).
The ginger chicken we decided to order. Seriously. I can go to destiny across the street and order popcorn chicken and feel that spending 7.95 on that was more worth it than the $6 i'm paying for like less than 10 little pieces of fried chicken. it was good, i could taste the ginger, but seriously, their portion sizes really needs some work.
Anyway, I've had better places, probably woudln't want to come back to this place if I had a ramen craving though.
