The challenge continues and i am back again (the second time within a week) at dusty iluma for the ultimate ramen champion!!
This time round, I did some clicking on their facebook page; this will at least give me an idea on what to have. Kon did suggest his favourite Tetsu but i eventually decided on Ikkousha which at the moment takes up an impressive 208 out of 591 votes!

Ikkousha it shall be.
For diners who are afraid they might forget which ramen stall they order from (trust me, such things do happen), be assured that the name of the ramen stall is indicated on this round disc issued to you upon your order.

Disappointingly normal and at a dollar a piece, i could make better use of my money on the comparatively humongous seafood dumpling from Chop Hean Kuan Dim Sum at only eighty cents each.
Hakata Ajitama Ramen
Hakata Ajitama Ramen
There are always a few types of ramen for you to choose and if you are an indecisive person, just choose the one tagged with a 人气 no 1. 人气 equates popularity.
Hakata Ajitama Ramen - straight, thin noodles with cha shu, egg, green onions and black fungus. It was said to NOT have the strong smell of pork bones.
I beg to differ - the taste of pork was obvious in my first sip although it quickly dissipated with the help of spring onions. I was happily stirring the ramen to ensure a good mix when i realised that the Cha Shu had already 'dissolved' into the soup!

It's alright; life goes on... The noodles were almost as thin as the mee kia Singaporeans are accustomed to and such thinness is usually a personal preference for me (except in dishes like horfun and pad thai).
Despite the initial (porky) shortcoming, i cleaned up the whole bowl! The broth may not be as flavoursome as Gantetsu but its lightness is something to look forward to.
