After a satisfying meal at Hanamaruken Ramen in Trinoma, we are on a roll! DH and I tried the much-talked-about ramen in town, Ikkoryu Fukuoka Ramen. We were glad we waited for the craze to die down because we were able to get a table within 5 minutes upon writing my name on the list.

| Ajitama Tonkotsu PhP 380 |
DH ordered Ajitama Tonkotsu (one of the Chef's Recommendation items on the menu). It is a ramen topped with a special half-boiled egg that is fully marinated with a special blended soy sauce base.
A whiff of the soup suggests a strong aroma of the tonkotsu. I took a scoop of soup and had my first sip, yes even before DH's first dibs with his own bowl of ramen ; p I find it too salty. I don't know if that's what the true taste of a tonkaotsu ramen supposed to be. Please do tell me.
*For a more authentic Chikuho local way of eating, add powder grained sesame seeds and/or add a little red ginger pickles into the soup (DH did it!).
