Ichiran Ramen is a taste that you will miss when you haven’t eaten it for a long time. Whether it is the dining atmosphere or the way of ordering, it is a fixed standard.
Even though the price has increased to 310 yuan per bowl of ichilan, there was still a long queue on Saturday afternoon.
[Draw number plate/wait]
It is not necessary for everyone to be present. As long as one person arrives, you can receive the number plate according to the number of people.
Just scan the QR code to know the number of the previous group
And the good thing is that you don't need to wait on site, and it doesn't matter if you pass the number. As long as you don't accidentally press "Cancel" on the online page, the number plate will be valid for 6 hours.
Number plates were drawn at 4pm on 6/22 and the estimated waiting time at that time was 90 minutes
The actual observation lasted about 70 minutes before it was our turn
Finally, I returned to the store at about 6pm. Although I had passed the number 100, I could join the queue outside directly, but it was not immediately available. I had to wait for two lines of people outside and a small queue inside. Once the crowd has exhausted, you will probably have to wait another 15-20 minutes before you can be seated.
【Quick pass】
Recently, several Youtubers have photographed that Ichiran Ramen can use the quick pass. This announcement was also posted on the scene. As long as you purchase souvenirs and spend up to 3,000 yuan, up to two people can enter the store directly without queuing.
As for the price of buying souvenirs, it is still a bit expensive at the original price in Taiwan.
【Meals】
No need to go into details when ordering. You can customize your own ramen according to your favorite noodles and flavors.
The choices of the day were: basic flavor, basic rich oil, no garlic, with green onions, with barbecued pork, basic red secret sauce, super hard noodles
No other ingredients added
This time I had to wait quite a long time after I was seated, and it took about another 10 minutes for the ramen to finally arrive.
The amount of noodles I ate this time felt much smaller than before. I’m not sure if it really has decreased. For girls, when they feel normally hungry, they can eat something small in addition to a bowl of noodles.
Moreover, the hardness of the noodles has been set to super hard. For me who pursues super hard noodles, the texture is still not as hard as before.
In the past, when I was hungry, I suggested sharing a bowl of white rice with friends. The rice has the texture of rice eaten in Japan. It is really satisfying to add it to the soup and make it a soup.
【environment】
Although there are fixed seats for each person, we also observed several groups of parents with children nearby. Yilan very considerately attached children's chairs so that the family can sit behind them. Children's tableware and small bowls were also attached. Can be eaten with family
Overall, it’s a ramen that you can eat when you like tonkotsu, miss it, and think about it when you’re nearby.
The CP value after the price increase is not that high
If you are looking for other soups or softer noodles, there are other better options.
