Hot hot outside with such a perfect sunny weather right after the typhoon in Hong Kong, I was out for weekend lunch with my roommate in Central. Yachiyo, is just downstairs; to all the people living in Central, it is such a convenient neighbor-dining spot. It is a up-floor restaurant in Soho Square, with a limited L-shape dining space which serves even half of it to the open kitchen. Weekend lunch time is quite empty. The menu is not complex, just Ramen (Ramen, Tsukemen, and Japanese cold noodle
The free Japanese starter is always a delicious dish. The salted seaweed is quite tasty and the dish tastes very similar to instant noodle. Well, to me, I prefer sour and sweet starter, like something similar to marinated ginger slice
My friend loves fresh Sashimi Salad very much, but I think the appearance is not attractive enough and the salmon tastes over-soft. Salad is not bad, especially the slightly sour sauce, which caters this season very well. My choice is Ramen, and a mixed of cold and warm style (Tsukemen Ramen - Japanese dipping Ramen) with a good presentation. The soup is a mixture of Miso and Tonkotsu (pork bone), but not warm enough and a little too salty. To be tough, Ramen is not elastic enough while as it turns cold it is really strong in texture. The pork is just too rough. I love the spring egg (Onsen Tomago) very much, because they use Japanese sweet soy sauce to make it.
Deep Fried Oyster, needs time to be prepared by chef, but it turns out really good, especially the fried flour skin. I don't think the fried oil is some kind of superior brand or imported stuff, while I appreciate the skill of chef, who makes the flour skin fluffy and crispy in mouth, and even performs better than oyster itself.Overall, it is an ideal place for business lunch or weekend quick meal, cozy environment and good service. Not expensive as Central's consuming level, and I will recommend the fries for sure.
