I actually went to Hida Takayama yesterday. It was a one man show. Sad to see. The broth is still what it once was, but the portions definitely went down in size. The noodles don't have the same texture and are thinner noodles. They feel pre-packaged. The extra chashu used to cover the entire top of the bowl and I couldn't even see the noodles underneath. Now with extra chashu, you get a normal portion that is served at almost any other ramen place.

Other than that, I don't even remember having any bamboo shoots in my bowl. it was toasted nori, noodles, pork and green onions.

I don't think it is going to last for very long under a new guy....

Their menu looks like it went down in size significantly too. $11 bucks before tip. Hate to say it, but definitely not worth the trip anymore. This place used to be my go to spot for no frills ramen.

With Ramen danbo closer to work and better flavours, I'm going to have to pass going to the public market for ramen.
