Located on Beiping Road, which is filled with a variety of delicious foods, there is another ramen shop on this street, but it's not great, so I'm really happy to have opened this one.
The decor is warm and has a Japanese style, and they play Chinese songs inside, probably music the owner likes. The owner and the owner’s wife (?) feel like they are just regular folks. When ordering ramen, you can choose the portion size for the noodles, and you can serve yourself as much mung bean soup as you want. I noticed that many people didn’t take any soup, maybe they didn’t notice there was a large rice cooker in the back. You can also serve yourself barley tea, but I usually don’t take it as it would waste plastic cups.
The ramen is delicious, with a variety of broth and main ingredients to choose from; the soup tastes rich and comforting, not overly salty to the point of being unpalatable. The noodles are decent, slightly chewy and thin. The soft-boiled egg is quite good, the chashu is thin, with a grilled flavor and has a nice texture. The ramen doesn’t have the common pickled bamboo shoots; instead, it has baby corn and wood ear mushrooms. Ordering ramen also includes a plate of small side dishes, which are given randomly; I have had delicious dried tofu and sometimes cabbage.
The curry rice is good, with quality rice and sauce; there’s a delicious soft egg on top, but the meat quality and portion are just average. However, I’m not eating curry for the meat anyway, so I often order it.
They also sell economical set meals, like a teriyaki chicken set meal for 99 NT dollars, and the side dishes are very delicious. The rice is cooked very well, and the meat portion is also average, which is acceptable for the price. If you take it to go, it doesn’t include soup and mung bean soup, so dining in is more worth it.
Overall, I highly recommend it. It’s perfect for when you don’t know what to eat after work and want to come here alone.
Thank you, Fooday 🥳, for inspiring me to try more different cuisines 🍽.

🪑 About the overall atmosphere 🎡
The store has air conditioning and features a minimalist Japanese decor, with many posters written in Japanese adorning the walls. There aren’t many seats, accommodating about a dozen people. Although it seems to primarily focus on ramen, I ordered:

🍴 About the dishes ☕
There are three side dishes: dried small fish with tofu, baby corn, and crispy cabbage, along with a fixed portion of minced meat. While the tofu isn't the smooth type I prefer, it pairs nicely with the small fish for flavor. I’m not a fan of the baby corn, so I passed on that; the flavors were quite similar. The crispy cabbage was incredibly delicious—it feels rare these days to find something this good in a bento! The minced meat was also tasty, though a bit salty; drizzling it over the small amount of rice made it very flavorful. I thought the chicken was cooked so well that I was almost convinced I was eating beef—it was very delicious, though the rice portion was a bit small.
🤨 Conclusion ♥
Not ordering ramen at a place that specializes in it feels like a bit of a missed opportunity, but the impression of how delicious this bento was makes me feel like I definitely have to try the ramen next time.
