"Butao Ramen" was long on my "to savour" list. Back when there was only the one and only in Central. The queue was discouraging. The fact that you have to queue in the open air (AND in central!... I always try to avoid central "central" when I am off work...) was even more discouraging. Now a second branch was opened in Causeway Bay. Still cannot avoid the queue in the open air (and to be honest, to an extent even worse, in an alley) (you see, there could always be a handy "excuse"/reason for ev
Now a second branch was opened in Causeway Bay. Still cannot avoid the queue in the open air (and to be honest, to an extent even worse, in an alley) (you see, there could always be a handy "excuse"/reason for everything.) BUT the queue itself appeared to be shorter (maybe because of the bigger shop and also having this extra branch)! Time to go!
First Visit
Arrived at around 5pm (after an investment forum). As I spotted the restaurant, I had a sudden surge of excitement "why is the queue so short". Then immediately, I reminded myself (time for appreciating openrice again) that the "main body" of queue would be in the alley opposite to the restaurant.
Second Visit
Good impression that the queue was not deadly afterall. And certainly very good impression of the excellent ramen. This time I arrived at around 6 and it took me around 30 minutes to get in (again, not bad at all). I decided to order something different - something off menu - the "Sea" King (海老王) ~~
A superb and satisfying bowl in the winter!! When it gets too hot in Hong Kong though, I guess the queue WILL DEFINITELY be daunting. So do visit now when the weather is still kind for ramen lovers.
