Strange noodles
Possibly related to "Osaka Osho"
Rice dishes might be better.
I deliberately travelled from one Tai Koo (Pacific Place) to another Tai Koo just for this. I chose this shop because of its' name and its' location. Tai Koo is one of the few places which was settled by a large amount of Japanese in Hong Kong.They had a fairly comprehensive menu, which included miso ramen, tonkotsu (?) ramen and plenty of rice dishes.
I ordered Kim Chi with fried pork ramen, half-hoping that it would be similar to the one I had at Hakodate, also a gyoza:
As with the other shops in this food court (with the exception of Gidako Takoyaki - grilled Octopus balls, one of my favorite snacks from Osaka), first place an order with the shop, collect the invoice, pay at the cashier and then wait for your order around the shop.
Broth: Seems to be a light type of tonkotsu and a bit of shoyu. The taste was fine but slightly artificial. Might be the result of the use of tonkotsu powder. Slight hint of fried sesame oil and spring onions.）Char Siu: Good! Surprisingly, very tender and flavourful. Much better than some char siu in ramen shops I had recently, for example Bario and Eda no Uta.
Menma: Normal menma marinated in vinegar. A bit too soft for my liking. Not crunchy enough but generous portion.
Kimchi: Average quality. No complaints.
Noodles: Very strange. This tasted like slightly overcooked somen (very thin, white, angel hair like Japanese noodles) or slightly overcooked Shanghai thin noodles. Not good.
It would be much better if they stuck with the general "Yokohama style", i.e. use chuka soba instead.
Egg: Not bad at all. Flavourful but not overwhelmed by soy sauce taste.Gyozas were quite bad though:
The gyozas were not good. Most were not fried properly and one gyoza wasn't cooked thoroughly. Bad.
Menu:
They seem to provide two different types of ramen, depending on which type of ramen you order. One type might be chuka soba and another type is the somen-like noodle.There is miso ramen (very strange if this shop is really from Yokohama as miso ramen is not from Yokohama), spicy miso ramen, shoyu ramen, and what appears to be the signature "Yokohama Fried Pork Chop Shoyu Ramen".
This shop also serves Soba, Udon (including the very interesting "Chikara Udon", literatlly strength udon, i.e. udon with two pieces of fried mochi and negi), fried noodles, curries and quite a lot of rice dishes like tenshinhan (worth a try) and omurice (omelette rice).
What might have revealed the secret origin of this shop is this:
The packet of dare (sauce) served together with gyoza...it's from "Osaka Osho".
No wonder all the tenshin han I saw all looked pretty decent.
Other rice dishes I saw looked pretty appetizing too.
Conclusion:
Wide selections of ramen and rice dishes.
Bad gyoza
Ramen was a bit strange.
I think if this shop is connected to Osaka Osho, I will stick to the rice dishes instead.
Other Info. :
雖然這次經驗麻麻，但Food Court 食店的實力不容忽視。深水埗西九龍中心現在是藏龍臥虎的地方。
Hysan Place 的金澤，梅光軒等亦是正宗的拉麵過江龍。
在本Food Court 旁的【Gindaco】亦是正宗的日本八爪魚燒。
