Woohoo! After 3 attempts, we finally prepared ourselves mentally to wait in queue. It's amazing how quick 50 minutes could fly while you're salivating over the menu. Giant bowls of ramen were constantly being brought out from the kitchen as time kept ticking away... It was only 12.30pm, and already, the first waiting list was full.

Inside was such a contrast. It was airy with plastic furnishings... and like all the others whom were quietly slurping up their ramen, we managed to finish ours in a record 10 minutes. There goes the 1 hour lunch break.

I had the Kimuchi Ramen which was so satisfying! The ramen was al dente... the broth was brimming with bean sprouts, bamboo shoots, corn and a fatty piece of roast pork (which i consumed entirely). The bright coloured kim-chi was beaming through...

It was a triumph... I finished my ramen with a big smile on my face. I conquered the queue!
