Service was fast and efficient and the food came out fresh and hot.

Aside for the normal menu, they offer 2 types of Ramen that is exclusive to Tung Chung Branch. One is Tokyo Shoyu (soy sauce broth) and the other is Hakodate Shio (salt broth). Topping for both ramen appears to be the same aside from the broth flavors. The toppings consist of braised pork (chashu), bamboo shoots, spinach, fish cake with thick noodles. As of 09 SEP 2019, they do not have their liquor license yet and looking to it as a frozen Kirin Ichiban hoes really nice with a bowl of ramen. Although this is my first time to this particular branch and over all visit was good, will definitely be back again soon.

I wanted Japanese Pork Cutlet Curry rice but they were out of rice when I arrived shortly before closing. I went with the "recommended" Tender Pork Ribs Ramen.

The grilled eel was obviously the ones you can buy frozen from Japanese supermarkets. Only two small pieces, roughly 1/3 of an eel. We had to order another eel grill to finish up the rice. The rice was the only bright spot, chewy and hot, that warmed a traveler's heart. I like everything boxed. :) Egg roll with ungai inside was another meh. The eggs were lack of a taste. The service was slow and not attentive. My waiter waited next to my table staring while I was writing the tip. A lot pressures and I was too shy and coward to give a bad tip. ;( Won't come back again.

The only thing that threw me off was a fruit cup that had a strange sauce inside of it didn't care too much for it. As for service well let's just say it's not the greatest nor was it the worse. We were brought to our table and it roughly took 20min for a waiter to come by to even ask if we wanted water/something to drink. And to make things worse they forgot to bring one of the entrees out we had to ask where it was cause they rarely came to check up on us. But other than that it was a nice environment and the food was delicious.

The braised meat and soup had very little gaminess and tasted clean and balanced. The meat was tender. One downside of the dish is that the fish is not only ultra-processed but has a very mushy texture. Overall, Ramen Souo Noodles with Braised Beef is still a good dish. Beef Fried Rice Noodles (亁炒牛河) are almost the national dish of Hong Kong, so the standards for making the dish are high. I was quite disappointed with their Beef Fried Rice Noodle. The dish wasn't necessarily bad. The noodles had the right texture, moisture, and taste. But everything else in the food was below average. The beef was of poor quality and tasteless. The spring onions, chives, and bean sprouts were too overcooked.

Started of with the French toast that comes with a slice of biter and side of syrup. Next was peanut butter toasted sandwich with condense milk and sprinkled with Milo. Peanut butter was good and tasted if they made it themselves and not a prepackaged one. Last of the dish that came was the Cha chaan Tang all time favorite. Fried chicken leg with a choice of French fries or salad, so i chose the fries. When the chicken arrived, I let it cool down a bit as you can literally feel the heat come from it. After letting the chicken rest a bit, I cut straight into the joint as this is the area that normally gets under cooked. Sure enough, my was definitely under cooked as you can see red meat still clinging onto the bone. So I had brought this to the attention of the wait staff that it was under cooked and showed here the part of the chicken leg that was under. Although I was already expecting them to re-fry the same chicken, but was I in for a surprise. The kitchen decided to fry the chicken leg to the point where the exterior turn to a dark golden brown and chewing the meat seemed it took for days before you could swallow it. To top it all off, they didn't even change the fries. HELLO! juice from undercooked chicken had gotten onto the fries. Obviously the kitchen staff needs to get re-educated as they forgot that salmonella and the effects it has on to ones body. I had brought this to the attention of what appears to be a manager level, but got a reply was more like they could care less. The kitchen guys were definitely taking a pist at the kitchen and if they don't see anything wrong with under cooked chicken an issue or their fault, then we have an issue to the public. Definitely would be coming back here for a looooong while, unless you want to test your immune system as who knows what elder could be done wrong

If you prefer your chicken broth to be rich and creamy, their soup ramen is a delectable indulgence. There is always a line wrapping the restaurant. ＊Signature Chicken Soup Ramen 鶏白湯そば Unlike typical ramen, their broth is uniquely frothed to a cappuccino style to make sure every strand of noodle fully adsorbs the broth. The chicken broth is thick, creamy and densely packed with flavor. You can easily tell it is prepared out of simmering the chicken essence for hours. Each ramen is accompanied by a slice of slow-cooked chicken, two slices of cha shu and deep-fried burdock chips. I am totally impressed by how tender the chicken breast is! I asked for addtional ajitama every time. The egg is perfectly soft-boiled and marinated.

I saw that there are often lineups, but I came after the lunch time rush ~2pm) and there was only 1-2 other tables and no wait. Inside was quite spacious with bar seating and table seating - I honestly didn't mind the bar because it was still roomy (even roomy enough to put my carry on below me haha). There was only ~3 options on their menu so I opted for their Signature Chicken Soup Broth Ramen ($148 HKD). I was honestly blown away by the foamy broth - lightweight but full of chicken flavour. Not salty at all and had such a clean and creamy taste. Noodles were cooked perfectly and tasted similar to thin ramen noodles. It came with 2 different cuts of chicken and both were so tender. I especially enjoyed the cut of the thigh. The fried burdock root had a nice chewy texture. It didn't get too soggy even sitting in the warm broth for a while. I'd say it could be just a tad more crispy because it was a little hard to bite though but the flavour was perfect. Honestly it is quite pricy for a bowl of noodles, but I would definitely revisit as it was that good. Definitely worth the trek out to try!

Without any…read morereal plans to venture out to the city at 7am, we sort of just walked the airport for snacks and food when we felt hungry. We were mostly occupied with playing Pokemon Go at the airport, so that kept us entertained until about lunch time. Our initial plan was to eat the peking duck restaurant next door, but lines were long and the menu seemed daunting ($$), so we decided to keep it simple. We ventured through the food court next door and found ramen to be the most appetizing menu there. The cashier was a bit short in tone and basically just took the order without asking for anything more. I got the miso veggie ramen with a choice of drink. However, cashier didn't give you a choice and just gave you a coke, lol. Like, I get I'm a tourist and all, but at least let me choose. The veggie assortment was pretty standard with carrots, bell peppers, bamboo and cabbage. Broth was a little salty for my preference, but better than expected. Decent meal, but I wouldn't say I'd come back again to this location. If it was a restaurant location instead of food court, I think I would feel differently about it.

Who would've thought that airport ramen would be good? Baikohken is either has 1 Michelin star or…read morehas been recognized in the guide. Either way, it was tasty. It's very simple menu and this airport location basically forces you to get a combo with soda (and no, you can't get water or tea instead.) I ordered the shoyu charsiu ramen. I asked if it was possible to get it spicy & the gal working said no. I still enjoyed much more than I though I would. Great Q to the ramen itself & the broth was tasty - even though I drowned it in chili oil. I ate it all & drank every drop of broth. The only spicy option here is the miso spicy charsiu ramen. The Miso spicy is VERY soy bean forward and pretty dang spicy. Also, unlike the shoyu charsiu, it only has pieces of meat. If you find yourself at HKG and are looking for something to eat, don't miss out on Baikohken! It's a little further down from the main eats (Ajisen, McDonald's, etc.) but worth the small airport trek! 152/365

Even the ground meat was covered in squid ink! This was a really good ramen, even if I did feel kinda thirsty afterwards. The noodles were Chinese rather than the Japanese ramen, which was ok, but it would really be better if they had the latter! The pork belly was so fat and thinly cut though, oh my gosh. You could add pickled radishes and veggies from little jars on your table (one was spicy and the other was very salty)-- both were delicious. You share that as well as any more spicy seasoning and communal water. My bf got the Red King and it wasn't as spicy as he thought it would be, and it is more chili oil than actual chili powder. His soup was salty as well. I quite like this place for its novelty ramen. If you know what you like, you can also customize your ramen!
