We had the thick series ramen (left in pic) and the normal tonkotsu ramen (right in pic). Owner warned me that the thick is very thick and asked for my confirmation. It was indeed very thick and rich! Very nice if you want to try a broth that has a consistency closer to a gravy. Unfortunately we couldn't see the cat, guessing it was sleeping since we went during noon. Can tell that the owner cares very much about the quality of his food.

Stumbled upon it while walking around Fengjia Night Market! Highly recommended - broth was rich but not overly salty. We asked for al dente noodles and they were cooked perfectly. Char siew was soft and melty, with a beautifully charred outside that lends a slight smokey taste. Egg was also well cooked! We could not find any fault with this ramen at this price point - in fact if he charged an additional 50NTD a bowl we would have gladly paid it. We chatted briefly with the owner and his love for ramen and his desire to serve high quality ramen is evident:) Shop’s been around three years and was full of regulars when we walked in. We were lucky enough to score the last two bowls of ramen for the night at 7:45pm. He preps limited quantities every day and will close early once sold out!

Compared with Japanese ramen, it is already a very authentic ramen. The owner is very kind and insists on having dreams, and he always wants to give the best to his customers. After finishing the meal, they will come out to ask the guests for their opinions. The soup is rich and gelatinous. I like it very much ~ I hope the boss will continue to work hard! I hope there will be more flavors to choose from in the future
