It has been a while, but ya.. this was written back in July lol.I read supergirl's review one day and was excited hearing there is an okay ramen place at Wanchai! I soon got upset getting to know the place is nowhere close to my office. I tried once dating my friend to go, but I thought Yukitei is those street ramen store which has no air-conditioning so we changed venue. Today I woke up and had this sudden crave of ramen and I decided to grab my bf to go with me.Good news is, they actually have
I read supergirl's review one day and was excited hearing there is an okay ramen place at Wanchai! I soon got upset getting to know the place is nowhere close to my office. I tried once dating my friend to go, but I thought Yukitei is those street ramen store which has no air-conditioning so we changed venue. Today I woke up and had this sudden crave of ramen and I decided to grab my bf to go with me.
Good news is, they actually have air-conditioning!!! The place was truly small, the seating are mostly outdoor but there are around six stools inside the block with air-conditioning! We arrived today on 7-1 at 2pm and found only a pair of couple having lunch. So did everyone go protesting?The ramen selection is quite a lot - categorized according to the taste of the soup and slightly differs ingredients. After deciding your ramen bowl, you could then decide how you like your ramen to be cooked (Soft, Normal. Chewy) and how strong you want your bowl to be tasted (Light, Normal, Strong).
I chose Black Sesame noodles while my bf chose the spicy one, we both requested for chewy texture ramen since we both reckon the mouth feel is always better. Sauce we chose normal.
1) Black Sesame Ramen Bowl
A lovely sesame aroma flew across me when they served my ramen bowl, my excitement doubled up with its appealing look.
First thing I picked was the egg. The yolk was still running with a perfect orangey yellow colour. It was quite smooth and creamy in texture. However some of the egg white was also running which I dislike. The colour of the outside was only lighted browned. There wasn't any taste from the creamy yolk but the overall taste was fine with the ramen broth.The broth was very flavourable with a strong taste of pork and sesame. The broth was very thick and tasted a bit slimy. The slimy part I found rather weird to taste but would not dislike it. The ramen was cooked just right to keep its max chewiness. Love it!
There were two kinds of pork belly in the bowl - the circular one which was slowly braised in Cha Siu Sauce while the other was slowly braised in soy sauce. The circular one was too lean and therefore rough in texture, while the other tasted better with a more tender texture.
*************
I have only tried a few ramen resto in HK (but I didn't review them all, too lazy, sorry ), but if you dislike thick broth, do not try this place. Butan is still on top of the list, but I reckon Yukitel's Ramen wasn't that bad neither as I polished my bowl rather quickly after it was served.
The only down side might be its capacity which is mainly outdoor. If you could risk the chance of eating outdoor and can withstand eating in a hot summer day in hk, go for it! I will wish you luck in getting an indoor seats!
