Noodles craving strong. That night, I was supposed to attend a hosted official dinner, which is typically Western fine dining with wine. I excused myself from it, cos all I wanted was noodles that night.

And I was happy, even though I was seated all alone at the ramen bar counter, as I watched the chefs prepare all the different food with swift but precise execution.

And this ramen? It's good. Hot shoyu based broth, al dente noodles, tender and moist pork shoulder, a poached egg, and that awesome pan fried pork belly you see right there. You may not like it if you prefer creamy tonkotsu broth, if you need that Japanese lava egg and chashu, but as a bowl of noodles I'm really happy with this.

The next day, they told me the food during the official dinner was really good. I kinda regretted a little.. haha. But I'm guessing I won't enjoy it if all I wanted was noodles that night.
