This place made me change my mind about ramen... I guess I just didn't eat the good ones at first and that probably left a bad impression on me. But THIS. It's really good - and instantly that moment of truth daunted on me - why everyone raves about ramen.Presenting Ramen Keisuke Tori King!Exterior of the place:You can make your own ramen at Keisuke Tori King!

Presenting Ramen Keisuke Tori King!
Exterior of the place:
You can make your own ramen at Keisuke Tori King! Not from scratch of course... but first you choose the type of ramen you want then you can choose the sort of combination of the taste of the soup, chicken oil, noodle texture and what you do not want in your ramen.
Certified tasty combination: Taste of the soup: Normal
Chicken oil: Less Oil
Noodle texture: Normal
What you do not want in your ramen: I want everything (Imma food monster nomnomnom)
Grind your own sesame seeds. They are really fragrant!
It's a whole new world in there! It really gives me the feeling of an authentic Japanese ramen shop even though I haven't been in one before.
Somehow, even some of the patrons and waiters/waitresses looked kinda Japanese after a while... okay it's probably all in the mind. Unless you're coming in groups of three or four, you'll be sitting beside or across strangers. Kind of feels more authentic to me. That's what I see in Japanese dramas anyway. There is also the ramen bar for single diners.
Free hard-boiled eggs! Cholesterol warning... haha! There's also free mayo sauce, free tissue paper, free water... really makes the entire dining experience much more convenient.
And then for the ramen picture itself...
The first moments where I popped the ramen into my mouth, I was almost seeing stars *_* Like wow, where have I been? The noodles are really springy and I think I might never eat instant noodles ever again. And the eggggg - love the gooey gooey yolk, the half-solid-half-liquid, it's what I called perfectly done (Need a card for a free gooey egg but you can always buy it or have free hard boiled ones) The chicken was quite a huge portion and the taste was passable (hmm I'm picky when it comes to chicken because it's practically my staple food). I think the spectacular part about this bowl of ramen is really the noodles itself. I won't mind eating one entire plain bowl of their ramen noodles + soup! The soup got saltier when I almost finished it, so I think there's no need to get the extra seaweed (which makes the soup salty) if you don't like salty soup. Generally I think this place is frequented mostly by couples, families and friends. There's also J-pop music playing in the background to create the Japanese atmosphere.
