台中市 • Ramen

Dinner1 pplNT$275

Let me start by saying 👉 I will give it 2 stars. To be honest, it’s because of the huge gap in food expectations and poor environmental experience. And for me, there are better ramen restaurants around here, so in terms of whether I will come back and patronize it again. , the probability is greatly reduced, and the number of stars is also reduced.

📋On the official website and menu of this store, you can see that it says "thick soup head". I even ordered the options of "thick and rich", "signature", and "the only one on the menu with a golden crown". Looking forward to a bowl of thick and fragrant ramen.

😮‍💨But, hugely disappointed.
The waiter brought it to the table very quickly. The color of the soup was right, but the taste was lacking.
I took my first sip of the soup with great expectations, but it was colorful but tasteless.
The tonkotsu soup looks very mellow, but it tastes just a little salty and sweet. I even have to think carefully to confirm whether this is a bowl of tonkotsu soup🤔?
I don’t know if this is how this store positions its soup, but my first impression of the soup was very disappointing😔.

(For the description of the meal, the rest is left to the photos below👇)

Secondly, there is the part about the dining experience, which to be honest, felt bad.
The clerk arranged a bar seat for me, number 2.

🤔What is the concept of No. 2?
👉There are 6 seats in total at the bar, and No. 1 is right next to the cash register (yes, it’s not the cash register, it’s the cash register!)
The distance is so close that it's like sitting directly at the teacher's desk in the VIP seats in the old classroom. When the teacher is in class, you are in the front row drinking water; while the clerk is cashing out, you are watching the customers check out in the rock area.

And I was sitting in No. 2, next to No. 1.

At first, when I went to the restaurant to dine, there were not many customers, so I didn’t feel that way. Later, customers came one after another, and the tables inside were gradually filled. Customers gradually moved to sit at the bar. Only then did I realize that the distance between the bar seats here was too large. close! It's so sad to sit up!

That distance is probably the distance that couples like to stick to!
When I look at my ramen, I can see other people's arms!
If you move slightly out of position, you will worry about bumping into others, so you can only clamp your armpits and retract your arms, for fear of bumping into others and causing misunderstanding.

Besides, didn’t I mention that it’s very close to the cashier?
When there are more customers, there are people behind you. People are queuing up to check out, waiting for the clerk to show you a table, and those who have something to ask the clerk. From time to time, you hear someone from behind staring at your ramen bowl, wondering when this person will be here. To leave.
I know the last one sounds like a customer's question, but I want to say that there are seats outside this store for customers to wait, and there is also a very wide arcade for customers to wait outside, but the store staff did not guide these people at all, a group of people Being squeezed into the not-so-wide aisle at the back really affects the dining experience.

In addition, I don’t know how the floor was decorated during the decoration.
When we first started dining, there were naughty children 🏃 running up and down the aisle. The floor shook so hard that my butt shook. I felt like the floor was hollow, and the shock waves kept coming from step to step.

After eating, I just wanted to leave here quickly. To be honest, with this price and experience, I really don’t want to come back.

No. 1 signature tonkotsu ramen $175 Add meat (pork and chicken prosperous = +2 pork barbecued pork, +4 chicken barbecued pork) +$60

Jin Cui fermented bean curd kimchi $40 I originally ordered the tonkotsu soup because it was thick and needed to relieve my tiredness. But the soup was not as good as expected, so it felt like an extra side dish.

The dough is thin and I think the texture is just right. It’s an average ramen, I don’t have any special opinions on this part.

It feels like a sauce made from onions and green onions. In my impression, ramen rarely contains such things. Maybe it exists to relieve boredom? Personally, I feel that whether it is present or not does not seem to affect the ramen itself.

Chicken BBQ Pork When I saw it, I was...a little dumbfounded. The taste and appearance are exactly as I imagined: "It's very similar to the original chicken breast from convenience stores", sliced and placed in ramen. In other words: the chicken is tender and original.

Pork BBQ Pork The slices are thin and don’t have much seasoning, so the flavor of the prepared sauce is not noticeable. The choice of meat is evenly fat and lean, so it's not a particularly flavorful barbecued pork to me.

What surprised me about the kimchi was that it was not a "leaf". It tasted like radish slices, not kimchi like cabbage. It tastes refreshing, has a lot of sauce, and feels like it can really relieve your tiredness.

This is the middle layer of the kimchi. You can compare the before and after photos with me. Unexpectedly, kimchi not only contains radish slices, but also kelp shreds in the middle. I personally like that kelp shreds are also included in kimchi!

Sauces on the table Seven-spice noodles and the store’s secret hot sauce. It is said that you must try the hot sauce.

The store's hot sauce was probably the most amazing part of my dining experience. Fragrant, spicy, numb First there are multiple layers of fragrance, then the feeling will slowly rush towards the nose (but not uncomfortable), then slowly feel the slightly spicy aftertaste, and finally the tongue will feel slightly numb. Overall, it's a very fresh experience, but as I'm not very good at eating spicy food, I don't dare to try it too many times. I think it would be nice to experience it. This hot sauce is something I think is worth recommending to try. (I really want to take a picture of the contents, but the color is just so dark😅)

The view from the counter seat to the inside of the store Some photos may give the impression of being deceptive, but you can compare the position with the tissue boxes and leaflets placed at the front, and you will be able to estimate the width of the position more and more. (In my impression, the leaflet is smaller than A4 paper, and the tissue paper is also the kind used by restaurants)

Non-bar area location I think there are about 6 tables

In-store flyers It was also from this flyer that I discovered that the store recommended hot sauce to use (the store clerk didn’t mention it at all😊)

Self-service utensils and water

Guests who use it inside need to put the dishes on the recycling table by themselves, but the kitchen is opposite the bar seat, so the dishes are placed directly on the table, and the staff in the kitchen will collect them directly.
