I chanced upon Baikohken ramen restaurant in 1KM. I was looking for a place to have my dinner. Coincidentally, I was also thinking about walking down to Paya Lebar Square to eat ramen.
I ordered the Shoyu ramen, which I preferred better than Tonkotsu. The soy based broth had a clear brown color and a salty taste. The broth wasn't too overwhelming and rich of pork flavors. I also had some gyoza to go on the side, which were forgettable.
The chashu was pretty good. It was very tender. The meat was also lean that it didn't leave a strong oily taste in the mouth. The bamboo shoots were firm and subtly cooked, giving a nice bite to the dish.The highlight of the dish however were the noodles. They were chewy and flavorful. The chewiness of the noodles was a good complement to the dish adding another layer of texture to the dish.
Overall, it was a good ramen. The noodles particularly made the dish very good. The subtle flavors in dish worked well together with different textures in the noodles, bamboo shoots and chashu.
