The serving component division was huge... value for coin kinda portion. We did non similar Hiyashi Chuku, though the al-denteness of the Ramen was spot on, the sauce was a footling equally good vinegarish to our liking. It would endure ameliorate if the dish carries to a greater extent than umami-ness. The Unagi Kabayaki on the other hand, was tummy-pleasing. The fish was tender in addition to skillfully cooked alongside the sweetness Japanese sauce. The meat to fatty ratio was exactly perfect in addition to the flavor-combo was beyond amazing.
