Black truffle ramen @ Yukitei

Since my last visit, there has been an improvement which was quite foreseeable.
The dining area used to be in an open area.
In the winter it would be OK, but in the summer it is quite unbearable.

As well as the open area outside, you can now dine inside where it used to be part of the kitchen.

I got the Ramen with black truffle, a new item on the menu.

Usually I prefer my noodles al-dente, but these are not the same noodles as Butao/Ippudo/HideChan.
I chose the noodles to be served softer.
For these type of noodles, I like them soft so that the soup sticks on the noodles and I can taste the soup and noodles at the same time.

When the noodles came, you could see grounded truffle and truffle oil on top of the noodles.
I put some truffle on the egg and it tasted really nice.
As well as the truffle, there were grilled Japanese mushrooms.
It was good the mushrooms were grilled because it brought out the nice mushroom aroma.
Overall I felt there was a major improvement since my last visit.
The noodles here are similar to the noodles at 魔麵 and Daruma in terms of the thick soup base and the type of noodles.
Daruma Ramen House's soup base is not as slimey and gelatinous as Yukitei. The soup here is much the same as 魔麵.
