The ramen is really good. It is very similar with Tokyo ramen.
The broth is thick and full of flavor. The pork meat / chasiu is thick but juicy and tender. The place not really small but accomodotive.
The noodle is soft.
We can select the noodle cook stlye (soft to hard), the thickness of the broth, and the oil level of the broth.
Absolutely cracking ramen and the service is super friendly. The ramen is iekei style and they let you choose the intensity of the ramen flavour as well.
Ambience and Cleanliness (3/5): Contemporary Japanese eatery layout in a shopping mall. English pop music was being played which killed the mood of a japanese eatery. I also spotted a small cockroach on my menu when I first sat down. Honestly a bit disappointed by this.
Came across a few Japanese families who came here for lunch as well. Maybe this means that the food here is legit?
Wifi here is free and you can connect using the password TAKEWAKA0443.
Service (3/5): I like to come during off peak hours, so as to experience good service and avoid nasty crowds. I was greeted, served and had my meal cooked by the same guy. I guess its common practice to cut down on manpower during off peak hours? As a result, waiting time was about 15 minutes for a bowl of ramen. Not too bad. The guy knew his stuff and managed the crowd well.
Food Quality and Taste (4.5/5):
Wow. I wasn't expecting such a flavourful shoyu broth. That was refreshing! Noodles were springy and tasty, the tamago was cooked at the right temperature. The only drawback was that the broth was abit on the oily side. This is definitely a bowl of ramen that's comparable to the ones served in Yokohama.
Overall (3.5/5):
Honestly I was hungry and didn't have much of a choice when it came to choosing where to eat. I like the Japanese food street concept in Wisma, so I had to choose one of the shops here to review.
The ramen quality and taste were great as described above. Worth a try if you are in the area.
