Soupless ramen with a difference at Koi Ramen, Brixton

There are so many Koi Ramen branches but I went to this particular one because it is located under the rail arches and feels like Japan. 

At first I was hesitant to try Koi because I am particular with ramen and the type of ramen they use but this is the thin type like hakata. 

Tried the Soupless ramen which was different and nice. 

Also known as abura soba/maze soba but this one was to my liking as the traditional ones use lard which is too heavy but here they use sesame oil which is much lighter and the noodles are thinner unlike the authentic ones which are thick.

The miso was a surprise because I thought it was going to be mellow like stated but the miso was strong like marmite to the nose the tofu puffs absorbed the flavours nicely.

This place can get quite steamy.
