Hidden away on the top floor of a small shopping arcade near little Tokyo, this place serves superb Ramen. The portions are generous ( a friend called the bowls, mini swimming pool) and utterly delicious. The vegetarian Ramen is great too. They do various levels of spicy - stick to the middle path. we went spicy and its was "HOT!"...

I simply love this place. The ramen soup portions are huge. All different varieties o ingrediants are just great. The best part however are the different levels of spiciness. There's something for everybody and you'll never go home hungry. Just great
