Read about this restaurant and its healthy ramen from the media when it first opened, but could never find it until I accidentally bumped into it when passing by the market stalls at the end of Stanley Street (despite the address being on Wellington).  

The place looked like a cross between a traditional Japanese ramen house and an izakaya.  The menu featured mainly ramen items but there were signs posted on the wall featuring various izakaya food items.  Decided to try the healthy ramen - they come as a set with 3 choices of ramen - I went for the "Beauty" set.  

The set came with a small salad and a bottle of yakult, which was interesting.  The salad was served too cold, although the yuzu salad dressing was quite nice.  When my bowl of ramen arrived, was a bit disappointed to see the lack of toppings (just a few slices of green leaves and bacon bits) compared with the picture on the menu.  The soup tasted quite unique - salty and yet citrusy.  The noodles were chewy but didn't seem freshly made.  It wasn't till I almost finished the whole bowl that I noticed the red ginger and spicy raddish toppings on the table.  Took some to try but found them too preserved, and the raddish was super spicy.
