Yokozuna Japanese Noodle Shop

Yokozuna has been around for years — since 1987, in fact. It’s not having the greatest time in the Noughties, with heavy weight contenders like Butao Ramen, Ichiran, and Ippudo causing ripples with their ramen in Hong Kong’s blogosphere.
However, it differs with these hotshots by giving you more variance with soup bases instead of all-​out tonkotsu.
Yokozuna offers shoyu ramen and miso ramen in addition to the popular tonkotsu base. The last time I went, I tried all three.
The tonkotsu ramen isn’t as unctuous as the other ramen shops, but had lots of toppings — with chashu, green beans, nori sheet, sweet corn, bamboo shoots, and narutomaki kamaboko.
The shoyu and soybean/​miso broth were, as you might imagine, lighter but still flavourful. My only issue was with the beef, which tasted like something from a fast-​food Yoshinoya beef bowl — definitely go for the extra side of chashu, it’s tastier and more generously portioned than some other ramen institutions. The way they grill the meat leaves a sweet caramelisation on the sides that many eateries just don’t care to do.
The salted eggs — an obligatory component to any ramen experience — were commendable.
