Spicy Fried Chicken Sandwich
Good and would have again but could use some improvement. Chicken really good. Better quality bun would be huge improvement. Also sliced pickle fine but don’t show big juicy pickle in the picture.

Miso Ramen with Chicken Katsu
This was a great repeat meal. It was great last time, and just as great today. The noodles were exceptional. The entire composition was balanced & the bok choy was perfectly prepared for the broth!

Tonkotsu Ramen with Chashu Pork Belly
I added a lot of water into it, still too salty; pork belly all fat.
