It started out with truffle fries, truffle xiao long bao, and now we have... truffle ramen ($16.90). A dry (and cold) version of the traditional Japanese ramen tossed in truffle oil with shavings for good measure. Normally I prefer my ramen soupy, probably because it's more "shiok" to slurp up, but for those who love the fragrant earthiness of truffle, this is worth a try. The aroma alone that wafts to you when the waiter sets your bowl down will get your salivary glands working. The texture of the noodles is a bit like Sarawak Kolo Mee, springy and with a nice bite. However the chashu was a bit too sweet for my liking. I'll be back again to try the dons and soup-based ramen!
