My wife and I tried the Shio and Shoyu styles. They were both good, but they contained green onion cut in such a way that it became overbearing and difficult to pluck off of the noodles. I like a standard cross cut to my scallions. This “long ways” cut sucks. The soup base was good, on the other hand, and the rye noodles were delicious.

One interesting item added recently is the 8am Breakfast Ramen. The broth is a cheese fondue. The rye noodles are topped with crispy ham, scallions and strips of cooked scrambled egg.

The fondue is thick, and the flavor profile is definitely “American breakfast,” so it has familiarity.
