| - I generally dislike "fusion" or hip 'asian' places, as its way more authentic and better value to just go to a japenese ramen restaurant. But I gave this a try anyway. This place was not good, as expected...
The menu is limited, which generally means they must do those 5-6 items really good. In this case, the food was just ok. I got the Momofuku Ramen for $16, pork buns ($10) and chicken buns ($9), each order comes with 2 small buns. Nothing special here, move it along...
The cocktails were $12.
This place definitely has a 'hip' atmosphere. Communal benches, a nice lounge area upstairs, open kitchen. It caters mainly to non-asians who probably want: chic atmosphere, western quality service and a pure english menu with staff who can explain it.
Compared to other raman places, Ajisen Ramen for example, I think Ajisen Ramen is better tasting, more authentic and overall better value. Ajisen Ramen isn't even that great.
