First of all, I absolutely cannot believe that this bowl of goodness is free of MSG? It was so incredibly flavourful.

The generous pile of mentaiko was more than enough to coat every strand of noodle. I tasted a bit of the mentaiko neat and while it was slightly fishy, the fishiness goes away immediately once you mix it well with the noodles. The noodles were perfectly al dente. I loved that there was a very satisfying bite to it.

For $17, this is a tad pricey for what I would categorise as slightly-better-than-mediocre ramen, but if you are a fan of mentaiko, this is one that you cannot pass up.

Also definitely get the dashi tamago and the chicken skin yakitori! The chicken skin yakitori was like heart attack on a stick but IT WAS SO DELICIOUS.
