Hakata Ikkousha 博多一幸舎

While friends were mentioning about free gyozas from Hakata Ikkousha for the Birthday, we decided to make a trip down to Chijmes. With a minimum purchase of 4 bowls of Ramen, the Birthday Girl / Guy gets free gyozas and the number of Gyozas given is based on the age. Besides the 4 bowls of Ramen as minimum criteria, promotion valid only one day before and after the birthday date and actual birthday date. This is a good chance to celebrate the special occasion with your love ones too.

These free gyozas were simply delicious and addictive. 

Birthday Promotion

I managed to order what I had missed out during my first trip to Hakata Ikkousha. The bowl of Bonito Ramen was stated as limited ramen, it tasted as good with stock made up of Chicken, Bonito and Pork. There was no overpowering of Bonito flavour. Likewise, it came with Pork Cha Shu, Bamboo Shoots, Seaweed & Spring Onions. My bowl of Ramen would not be completed without topping up an additional flavoured egg.

Bonito Ramen - $15.50 + $2.50

While I think that its a Ramen place, the focusing dish should be Ramen. However,  their Golden Fried Rice was flavourful. The bowl of fragrant rice was deliciously mixed with eggs, green onion and meat. Meanwhile their menu also states that this item on their side menu is also limited order too. 

Golden Fried Rice - $11

With the cravings of Japanese Ramen this week, we visited Hakata Ikkousha, one of the reputable ramen places in town located in CHIJMES.

Hakata Ikkousha

At a glance through the kitchen opening, we observed that the chef is working non-stop to ensure bowls of delicious and quality ramen are being served.

Stiring the Broth

Interior is compact with limited seating and we were lucky to arrive early before getting caught in the long queue.

Here's the Hakata Specialty Hotokuchi Gyoza, Ikkousha style, pan-fried dumplings. The taste was decent with hints of minced ginger and the skin of Gyoza was thin. What's more, these dumplings were bite-size.

Hakata Gyoza (5 pcs) - $6.50

If you would like something spicy, their God Fire Ramen offers a spicy level of 1 to 4. It is Ikkousha original tonkotsu broth with the Ikkousha's secret brand of "Spicy Fire" thin noodles with fungus, spring onions, seaweed as well as the tender slices of pork Chashu.

God Fire + Special Topping  - $15.50 + $4.50

Hailing from Hakata in Southern Japan, Ikkousha original pork broth which is perfect vessels for the full-bodied and collagen-rich pork bone soup served with thin noodles, tender pork chashu (4 pieces), soft flavoured egg, fungus and spring onions. For a bigger appetite, we asked for additional Chashu and noodles. These additional items were served separately,.

Special Tonkotsu with additional Chashu and Kaedama - $18.50 + 4+ 2

Here's the Power of Garlic, Ikkousha original Tonkotsu broth with their special fried garlic paste topped with thin noodles, tender pieces of pork chashu, fungus and spring onions.

Tonkotsu Black Special - $20

The taste is certainly delicious and holds up to a great standard with the smooth texture of the noodles. They used to have free flow of egg which was known to be their selling point, unfortunately, such offer had ceased. 

Tonkotsu Black Special - $20

In fact, if you like to enjoy the flavoured egg, you will have to top it up.

Here's the Egg

A runny egg yolk from their flavoured egg.

For every bowl of ramen, patrons can indicate the noodle texture (soft, normal, hard, very hard), saltiness level (light, normal) and if special toppings/toppings are required. For this instance, special toppings include 3 additional slices of Chashu and a flavoured egg and bamboo shoots were topped up in this bowl of Black Tonkotsu

With such quality of Ramen, it gives us every reason to be back again for more.
