Hidden from the busier part of Tsim Sha Tsui on Ichang Street, Aoi is a homey Japanese restaurant that sells ramen in delicious chicken soup. I came here once before during weekend, and there was a line outside the restaurant since there are only a few seats inside. So I decided to pass it. This time, I gotta try it on a relatively less busy Tuesday evening.Aoi has a simple menu, which tells me they know what they are doing, and they should be quite good indeed.

Aoi has a simple menu, which tells me they know what they are doing, and they should be quite good indeed. I came here for the white chicken soup, and thought that maybe a bit of yuzu would make a novel ramen experience?

Each bowl of ramen comes with three pieces of cha siu, with two pieces of barbecue chicken, and one piece of barbecue pork. You could opt for all chicken or all pork on the order sheet. I went with the two chicken one pork option, and it was so satisfying!

The chicken char siu was quite thick, yet it’s not chewy. It’s actually quite tender indeed! The sesame on top definitely worked its magic and made the chicken tasted even better!
The pork char siu was comparatively less wowing as it’s quite common. Nevertheless, it’s very delicious.
Ramen was ordinary. The yuzu chicken soup base was outstanding though. It wasn’t oily at all, unlike what you normally find in other Japanese restaurants. The yuzu gave a refreshing fruity flavor to the soup, which made it so much more enjoyable to drink or have with the ramen! Nice! I would recommend you to try out this soup base.
What surprised me most was how Aoi served corn with the ramen. Usually you get individual corn which sinks and gets lost in the soup once you start eating your noodles. Yet, Aoi chopped out whole pieces of corn which remained in the soup (not sure if I am making myself clear but you could see it in the picture), so that you could eat them all without much hassles! Amazing! Such a smart way of cooking! New cooking skill learnt! Well done Aoi!

Not to neglect is the onsen egg, the runny egg yolk was so delicious!
I strongly recommend Aoi to you if you happen to be in Tsim Sha Tsui for dinner.
