Tonkotsu ramen

This ramen is unlike others as it's from Hong Kong and is supposed to be one of the top five in HK. The menu is really simple with only three soup bases to choose from. For the shoyu and tonkotsu soup, you can even opt for the lighter version. We tried the recommended tonkotsu ramen at Daruma Ramen while they were having their 1-for-1 deals. C went for the original soup while I wanted to taste the lighter alternative. It turned out that the lighter version was a little bland for my liking. Noodle-wise, the ramen was very Q but perhaps too thick. The seaweed and fungus tasted rather synthetic while the soft-boiled egg wasn't consistent. Luckily, its tender meat and the interesting dried chili threads saved my day.
