To the perky tourists and the cool-as-milk-tea residents, Hong Kong is always one amazing congregation of cultures and experiences in every aspect. The people, the clothes... just about everyone from everywhere, in the big brew abbreviated simply as HK. Of course, food isn’t an exception in this symphony of everythings. There are all kinds of restaurants and cuisines scattered like sand across a beach. Of course, some of these places may not be the best- sometimes rice could be soggy, the soup would be as thick as a brick, or the main course would drive you out of the restaurant. But recently I got to dine at one of the choicer eating places.
On a Sunday night, my family traversed the bright unknown regions of iSquare, to find a place unfamiliar to our eyes (and taste buds), SANTOUKA, a Hokkaido-style ramen kitchen. The restaurant itself is loud and bright, but in an agreeable, friendly way, as if you were somewhere familiar. They put their decorations and trinkets around, and they come together like wasabi, tuna and rice, especially the wooden bear statue above our table.
As for the food it was, put simply, satisfying. Only simply, though- it should be put in more words than that. It was a set; all of us had sets. I started with eggs and cabbage; where the eggs were interestingly chewy, and succulent. The cabbage wasn’t what you would put the blue ribbons on, but it isn’t horribly similar to plastic (like some of the tasteless rubber that comes out in some soups). The salmon with rice, doused in soy sauce and merged with enough wasabi to burn the mouths of an unsuspecting foreigner, was mild, pink, and tender, akin to a newborn kitten in terms of cats. The rice itself was plump and happy already but with cooked salmon, mushroom, turnip sprouts and fried egg they came together to form a mantra of flavor. The noodles were like the eggs; not like the weak, almost dead, overcooked stuff, but the springy, elastic strings with a healthy yellow noodle color. It goes down like butter on pancakes with the perfectly-salty shio soup. Though each family member had a different menu, we were all happy with it.
The price for this better-than-good meal was relatively tolerable, though a tad overpriced with sets for five at HK$450 and tax.
一坐底著見到特別Menu「魷魚筒飯餐」，不過每日限定供應10個，正諗緊應該無嘅時侯，侍應竟然話有，到底係有多定無人叫，真係無人知啦哈哈。
一Set有飯又有面，不過魷魚筒太硬身，糯米則太淋太黏，絕對稱唔上好味，試過就好。
講起火頭山，拉面絕對係佢哋主打，今次我試嘅鹽味拉面水準超高，碗中央一顆鹹鹹的脆梅，就係山頭火拉面嘅標記，不過個人並唔太鐘意食XD
另一位朋友點了近期人氣急升嘅「沾面」，面條其實無咩味，所以面汁相對較咸，不過其實食沾面好易中伏，就算你喺日本都係咁話，火頭山應該算係中上了。
另外叫了煎餃子，雖然有啲燶左（相片係特意反轉再影嘅），不過真係超好食，必點之選！
飲品就朋友點的牛奶抹茶，還不錯的。
燒三文魚飯未免令人失望，只有少量全熟三文魚肉碎放在白飯上，但三文魚也不失鮮味。而吉列豬扒則有驚喜，豬扒炸得金黃，皮薄而鬆脆，肉厚肥肉少，不會柴皮，蘸上豬扒醬吃，甘甜惹味。白飯用了珍珠米，煲得也算煙韌。
山頭火的拉麵，質素有保證，不想排長龍吃拉麵，這裡也是個好選擇。
不一會 食物便遞上了 在這段時間 待應見我們的杯子沒水便會第一時間過來倒水 服務確實不錯
日式咖哩飯 賣相普通 分量偏少 咖哩汁也頗香濃 沒有辣味 材料有牛肉粒和蘿蔔 味道可以接受
這間拉麵水準比較獨特 和其他主流的不同 湯底較清淡 味道不會太濃稠
Miso soup is rich but not too salty, which is what I like. The ramen is thick noodle. When we ordered, the waitress asked how we like our noodle to be done. I wanted the normal cook, which came out to be just right for me. The chai siu is tender.
We also ordered a deep fried beef & potato cake to share. It's crispy but not too oily. So, another GOOD 
店外的日式食物模板和門簾設計, 很有日本地道風味. 店裡面並不算大，約可容納三十多人。裝修佈置彼雅致而帶有日本氣息，店以木卡座為主，牆壁上則掛了幾副日本字畫，给人感覺很清新.
店裡面還有一座日本木彫熊雕塑工藝站在高高的木枱上, 感覺很有霸氣。
刺身定食: 包括一客什雜錦刺身沙律，一碗拉麵，一碗珍珠米飯和半只熟蛋。刺身沙律含有三文魚，八爪香，帆立貝，甜熟蝦和少許海帶，底部則鋪滿清清爽爽的生菜。刺身吃下有新鮮感，三文魚吃下油脂豐富，帆立貝柔軟鮮甜多汁，八爪魚鮮甜有嘴嚼，可惜但份量不多。 
吉列豬扒定食: 這個當然是配一份炸豬扒，一樣是有拉麵的，但這個拉麵是要了辣味的，一碗珍珠米飯和米隻熟蛋。吉列豬扒不算是特上優質，肉有點偏厚，吃下亦不算很鬆化，但豬扒是即叫即炸，而且亦炸得有脆口，咬時發出"咔嚓" 的聲音。
