I loved Ippudo in NYC so I was excited when I learned that Ippudo was opening in HK. Never made it to the TST one because I live on HK Island so it was easier for me to visit the CWB branch. Didn't have to wait in line for lunch on Thursday - guess the lines have died down or migrated over to Butao. I ordered the Wasabi Tonkotsu Ramen and the Pork Bun. Never tried wasabi in ramen broth before so didn't know what to expect. The wasabi tonkotsu broth was rather interesting. Wasn't overly done - th
I ordered the Wasabi Tonkotsu Ramen and the Pork Bun. Never tried wasabi in ramen broth before so didn't know what to expect.
The wasabi tonkotsu broth was rather interesting. Wasn't overly done - the broth had a hint of wasabi taste. There was a couple of times where the wasabi got to my head and my eyes watered a bit. Something unique that you can try once. There were 2 pieces of char siu and it was nothing to rave about. The noodles were too thin for my taste - I didn't like the texture of it.Next the pork bun came. This is where I got really disappointed.
In NYC, this dish is one of the most popular dish to order because it is soooo good. The pork belly is soft and served with a special bbq sauce wrapped in a bun. The one I got in CWB looked like it but tasted nothing like it. The pork is thin and smeared with some mayo - what the heck?! I expected some quality control here but the taste shouldn't be that much different across all the geos. Nothing special here in Ipuddo HK in my opinion - you can find better ramen else where. 張貼
