MIST?
Ramen (or "rahmen") and Fine Dining never crossed my mind as two words that can be associated with each other in one sentence; now "MIST?" proved me wrong this evening. This new establishment in Causeway Bay put itself right amongst the fine dining scene in Hong Kong with its specialty: Ramen of course. Ramen to me is something hearty and down-to-earth, just like burgers which is soul food without costing a fortune. Perhaps my belief is already outdated?
The decor was upscale indeed with leather bounded chairs (I assume they were leather) and utensils were hiding inside the drawer in front of each diners. A nice touch indeed.
However, 2 things I noticed which I disliked very much: (1) the menu smells, literally of unpleasant leather smells odor and the staff admits it! & (2) with approx 26 seats including bar seats, there were 6 waitstaff around, always one nearby which was kind of intimidating for me. (even when their service was attentive and friendly)
It is a very bold move indeed for it to offer only 5 variations of soup to go with a single type of Ramen (or "Rahmen") noodles. Each bowl came with only one single piece of pork and everything else is extra. There were some cold / hot side dishes but limited choices once again. We ordered the "Rahmen" Sushi to start with and it was lovely in term of presentation with 4 metal spoons holding sushi like pieces made of ramen noodles topped with different items. Honestly, not overly spectacular or extraordinary at all, the flavors + textures were very predictable in a sense.
I ordered the ume shio "rahmen" (plum) with an extra boiled egg which looked very pretty. The noodles were relative thin and soft compared with those I tried before. According to the information leaflet provided, three types of flours were used to make this special noodles and over 25 ingredients for the soup as well. Personally I prefer the more chewy and thicker types of noodles. The soup on the other hand was wonderful with the right level of saltiness to it and hints of citrus flavor from the ume (plum). Two Thumbs up on the soup!!!
The one and only piece of BBQ pork was semi-fatty in a delicious way and the boil egg was good with yolk flowing out.
Likes:
* Great soup base, not too salty, just the right amont.
* (semi-dislike) very unique noodles but rather too soft and too thin for my liking
* Attentive service
Dislikes:
* Rather costly for a bowl of hearty ramen.
* Although service was great, too many waitstaff within the limited space, privacy was a concern in my case.

Too Oily
The restaurant was nice, not your typical ramen joint. The menu consisted of ramen, salads, and some odd pork dishes. The smoked pork belly was pretty good. Smoked at point of order. Just the right amount of fat and meat. The flavors were delicate, and not overpowering. Other interesting dishes came out of the kitchen as we had a good view from the counter. Wasn't sure this was a ramen place though. They had fine cutlery, and a cool compartment at the counter for your chopsticks and soup spoon. The ramen on the other hand was alright. Beautifully presented, but a layer of oil sits on top. Felt kinda guilty gulping the soup! The noodles lacked texture and bite. Locally produced, but not authentic Japanese ramen noodles. For the price and the product, I will not return, as I can find better/similar tasting soupbase elsewhere in HK.
