    These things are hardly ever worth the time. The worst I saw I think was a bubble tea opening and some people waited hours just to save like $5 for a cup they could've gotten another day…

    I love ramen and Hakata Gensuke makes the worst ramen I ever ate.
    For the most classic Tonkotsu ramen, the broth taste like low-quality pre-made broth, and the noodle are even sticking together.
    Seriously, I won't even eat it for free.
    I ate at the Hakata Gensuke in QV, not sure if it is the problem with this exact shop.

    • baldur on 21/08/2023 - 18:14

      I had ramen at the same place last weekend and I am not coming back there.

      That's probably because it is not a regular tonkotsu ramen at QV. That store is pork free (which is what tonkotsu broth typically uses) and only uses chicken.

        yeah i don't understand that store is clearly marked - obviously it isn't going to taste anything alike to a pork tonkotsu.

    • Dumb Dog on 21/08/2023 - 18:39

      They also changed something about the meat and meat quality+quantity while increasing price at Ippudo QV, a ramen joint near Hakata. Where to go now ;(

        Shujinko on Russell

        • thangcuoi on 21/08/2023 - 20:04

          Shujinko charges weekend surcharge from Fri-Sun + card fees. It adds up.

          • kerfuffle on 21/08/2023 - 20:10

            @thangcuoi: So does Ippudo QV.

            Wait Shujinko surcharges on Friday? That's not on.

            • thangcuoi on 21/08/2023 - 20:13

              @kerfuffle: Many places in Melbourne CBD have introduced weekend surcharge, but they should limit it to Sat-Sun.

          Last time I went broth tasted like water and surcharges.
          I like Mr Ramen San and also Little Ramen Bar

          • paddyo on 23/08/2023 - 21:36

            @dasher86: Do you work at any of those two??? :) :) I am always wary of restaurants being slagged off and then spruiking others.

                @dasher86: If Ajisen Ramen on your list. Then please excuse me.

                • dasher86 on 25/08/2023 - 07:02

                  @itstuan: It's only on there as the lowest as I can't recall any where else as bad in Melbourne I have been to.

                  • itstuan on 25/08/2023 - 11:29

                    @dasher86: Ajisen ramen is just average, something I’d eat if no other options. I’ll try Mr Ramen San next time as it got good reviews.

          Shujinko is terrible…

      It might just be a once off. I am a regular visitor at both Hakata Gensuki stores. Never experience the issue you described. I also visit Parco and Shujinko occasionally to change things up. Hakata Gensuki is still my favourite ramen chain in Melbourne.

      • LeonC on 22/08/2023 - 11:09

        It's because they wanted a pork broth ramen (tonkotsu literally means pork bone) from a store that doesn't do pork broth ramen.

    • mahdoo on 21/08/2023 - 20:43

      qv store is the chicken one. Hakata Gensuke does terrible chicken broth.

      Go to literally any other Hakata Gensuke store - just not QV.
