I love their mentaiko ramen, which comes with good katamen (firm noodles), a generous dollop of mentaiko, a perfect ramen egg, and the best sliced charred charsiu. This was definitely one of my top ramen places, but this time, it didn’t really perform. Although generous, the mentaiko was too much and made the dish too salty. The noodles also had a slightly slimy texture, which I think is probably because the noodles lacked sufficient oil to separate them. A real pity, because I absolutely love having their charsiu with mentaiko noodles. (Plus, the mentaiko is the real stuff, without any mayonnaise to dilute it!)

Opposite me was the garlic ramen that my friend had - which was extremely, extremely salty, even if you have heavy tastes. Definitely a disappointment for this one. Rather sad too because it was my friend’s first time to this place. Oh well! Would still come back for the mentaiko ramen though, but probably mix the mentaiko in moderation.
