In my mind, nothing is better than to have a hot bowl of miso soup ramen when the weather is getting cold, so my latest food adventure took me to this small Japanese ramen joint at Central. The restaurant was only half full when I arrived at around 1:45pm on a Sat afternoon. I was promptly seated at the bar overlooking the open kitchen. Ordered their spicy miso soup ramen with butter and a "home-made" fried vegetables dumpling. However, it turned out to be a bit of diasppointment really. It was not about the quality of the ramen, which was tangy and chewy, likely a product of 西山製麵廠; nor was there a problem with the vegetable dumplings, which were actually quite nice, with thin cripsy skin and not too oily; and their signature 溏心旦 that came with the ramen were pretty good, too. But the main problem lies with the soup base - it was quite bland really, with only a hint of miso and was not spicy at all

As the soup base is really the "heart and soul" of any bowl of ramen, I consider this as a really disappointing ramen experience. And the rather small portion of the ramen certainly did not help to lift up my already sinking mood... ... so at the end, I walked away quite disappointed. Maybe it is time to go back to some "real" sapporo ramen joints again... ...
