I always wanted to try this place but then it was getting into the summer months and ramen is not something I'm thinking of eating. Until cool weather rolls around and I'm back to my ramen chomping marathon! So, I came to try it on this day.

There wasn't really a line and I got to sit down very quickly. Place is very cramped. Chairs around a bar like table facing the chefs who make your ramen before you. You are given a slip of paper in both English and Chinese to circle what you want. I chose the kamitora ramen (supposedly pork broth that has been cooked for 12 hours). It already included an egg.

 The noodles basically looked like this. The pork broth was very white in color. It was sweet but not very rich. There was a bit of spicy paste in the middle. Mixed with the broth, it really didn't make it any spicier.

 Noodles were not very chewy in consistency. And it got softer and softer as I ate away. It definitely didn't hold up well.

 The egg was amazing. Lightly seasoned. The yolkd was beautifully runny. Personally, one of the best eggs I've had in a while.

 The noodles and broth was ok. It wasn't great. It wasn't bad. The egg was fantastic. A bit overhyped. I may return again but it wouldn't be my first ramen choice if I'm in the area.

This is one of the dozens of authentic Japanese ramen shops anchoring in Hong Kong. Based in Osaka, the soup base prepared for over 12 hours with large amount of pork bones and seafood is the selling point of ramen in Kamitora. Located in a dead end alley and seated less than 25 eaters, it’s not uncommon to see a queue forming outside the shop. Avoiding rush hour and before the name was heard by ramen addicts, I had luck to grab a seat at 1:30pm on a weekday.

 Similar to many of the other ramen shops, an order list was handed to each diner by a friendly staff to tailor made one’s preference in making his/her own bowl of ramen. On top of ramen, Kamitora also offers dumplings, BBQ pork bowl and even fried rice.

 As usual, I picked the original ramen on my first visit. I circled every optional item and added half piece of egg as I thought it’s the same as Ichiran that egg was not included in the standard ramen. I thanked the wait staff who took my order and reminded me that an egg would also be included in my ramen.

I was sitting by the bar table so the chef passed me my ramen across the table. The soup first caught my eyesight. It was thick and with rich flavour of pork bone on my first sip. However, the noodles were of ordinary thickness and not springy as I expected. There were two pieces of medium size char-siu in the bowl, from two separate cuts as the first one was a bit dry and tough while the second piece was much tender.

 The piece of soft boiled egg was a bit overcooked, yet still be able to get a melting yolk.

 Although the soup was already very rich and with intense flavour, you can add some condiment such as preserved spinach or ginger. Of course, don’t miss the self grinded sesame to enhance the flavour.
