I have been wanting to visit Zagin Soba for ages because everyone is raving about it and how no other chicken broth ramen in Hong Kong is as good as this.Finally went over during the Bank Holiday as there were less people.Zagin Soba on Gough Street is the second branch in Hong Kong and while I was there, I overheard that they will expand to UK by the end of this year.Their signature chicken based broth comes from Osaka which is rich and creamy so I had that with extra smoked egg.To summarize I w
Finally went over during the Bank Holiday as there were less people.
Zagin Soba on Gough Street is the second branch in Hong Kong and while I was there, I overheard that they will expand to UK by the end of this year.Their signature chicken based broth comes from Osaka which is rich and creamy so I had that with extra smoked egg.
To summarize I was really impressed with the chicken ramen because every element was good, ie the broth, ramen, meat, egg and the crispy burdock.
Although, seemingly a simple bowl of ramen, there were lots of things going on so decided to try every element separately.To begin, the burdock looked like a complicated spaghetti junction of crispy strands.
It was deliciously crispy but also delicious dipped in the chicken broth as you get some unami to it.
Moving on to the meat, there was a piece of chicken and chashu.Both were slow cooked hence the tenderness.
The chashu tasted like delicate slices of ham.
The smoked egg which costs HKD15 was silky with an evenly smoked flavour that combined well with the rich thick creamy yolk. 
The star of the show was the broth, thick and creamy just like English chicken soup.It gets its taste from finely pureed chicken, where the broth is then frothed up like cappuccino.
The purple onions and greens help balance out the heaviness of the broth.
Simply a comforting broth that everyone will love and drink to the last drop.
As well as ramen. the fried chicken is also worth ordering.I was expecting the usual fried chicken with mayonnaise but here they give you yuzu salt which is a million times better as the yuzu salt is refreshing like squeezing lemon juice on to it with a touch of saltiness.
My friend had the Salmon Tsukemen which looked captivating so next time I am going to have tsukemen as they have limited edition ones like Kinmedi.
Overall, it was an impressive visit from the environment to service.
All their crockery and fixtures come from Japan so that you get that all round Japanese experience.
Will be back soon.
