This is a great new choice for lunch in Admiralty. The only drawback is the crowds - waiting time can be up to 45 minutes even if you arrive early (e.g. on the dot at noon, which substantially decreases the waiting time at most other places). However, food is served super fast so you can finish your meal in less than 20-30 minutes.* Akamaru (赤丸) Ramen $78 - The noodles here are perfectly cooked, even more so than I may say the TST branch where I am a regular.

* Akamaru (赤丸) Ramen $78 - The noodles here are perfectly cooked, even more so than I may say the TST branch where I am a regular. The soup is hearty without not being too oily or salty - extremely drinkable! It's extremely flavourful and well complemented by the condiments available including pickled ginger, grated roasted sesame seeds. The noodles also comes with two slices of rather fatty and tender pork which are also well seasoned. The portion of the pork I think is just right - more would be heart stopping
* Soft-cooked egg (半数蛋) $10 - This is very well seasoned - my yolk was very slightly overcooked. The egg comes warm which is great. The one in TST comes cold so I have to leave it in the hot soup until pretty much I have nearly finished the noodles to warm it up.
There are a number of other condiments you can add at additional cost, including Onsen Tamago ($10), pork neck, pork loin, roasted seaweed, etc. etc.
Ambience is nice - not too noisy despite the crowds - and service is prompt and efficient, cheerful without being intrusive.
All in all a good experience and I will be back.
