Been quite obsessed with Ramen lately and happened to stumble across this hole in the wall in LKF. With the amazing smell of ramen flowing out on to the streets, it was not surprising that a long queue formed so quickly outside. Don't be put off though! The wait should only take around 15-20 mins. Butao only serves ramen so most people usually bounce right after they have satisfied their cravings. Am very Happy to say this hidden gem will save you a 2hr flight to Fukuoka!!While waiting, the frie

While waiting, the friendly staff offered us menus and checklists as to what ingredients we wanted in our ramen. We were seated shortly after. Unfortunately we didn't get to sit at the counter (with 4 seats). It was fun sharing tables though.. especially with the anticipation of what was to come.
DN &* I ordered the Original pork bone soup base ramen while Moo ordered the Limited edition CURRY soup base ramen (He was lucky, not on the menu yet there were only 2 left and it was not even 7pm!)
My personal favourite is the curry soup base ramen * .. it was super tasty and the curry flavour wasn't overwhelming at all. It complimented all the other ingredients very well
We were equally happy with the original flavoured ramen. Both very good choices of the night!
** Butao also serves a spicy soup version of ramen, a soy sauce version and a more fusion version consisting of basil and parmesan.
WHAT AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE!
The soup was very refined and more superior than any other ramen places I've tried in Hong Kong. We were happy to find our ramen cooked just right (we ticked "hard" for ramen texture on our charts").. almost al dente! Must add that the soft hard boiled egg was absolutely DIVINE *
Overall, I can't say the ramen was cheap but must say it was VERY worth it! Really looking forward to trying all the other flavours next time * ~
** Please note that Butao closes for a few hours after lunch and re-opens at dinner time. Best to call and check before!
