Remember Kimberley Center (TST Chatham Rd) where a lot of small trendy shops grew up in the late 80's. There went up with many new things, including this ramen shop and for the first time I tried a Japanese ramen in thick pork bone soup. 20 years passed so quickly. I visited this restaurant last week again. Not sure if I become picky or their quality dropped. For sure other Japanese chain ramen shops (e.g. Aijisen 味千) would be much better than this one.

I missed Chatham Road, where there were many boutiques.
Ajisen Ramen was once famous and crowded in LA with 30-minute wait, but since 2009 very quiet and not even half full. I guess because it is kind of expensive($10 US per bowl after tax) considered today's economy in LA, also the soup very oily.
Ajisen here charges about HK$38-45 (US$6-7). Yes, their soup is pretty oily and a bit too salty.
Yes salty too. That is why we quit Ajisen for one year.
The ramen in BKK is pretty good though, not that oily or salty.
