First star goes to big open spaces which was one of the draw here. Away from the hustle and tight spaces in other Japanese outlets, this is one of my go to Japanese local family owned restaurant.
Secondly, our food came served in ceramics and not plastic bowls or plates. I don't like hot noodle soups served in plastic bowls. That's another star!
I ordered karage miso based ramen noodles. The crunch of the black wood ear fungus and bean sprouts complemented the flavour of the soup. The half egg was cooked to perfection, with the yolk gooey and egg whites soft but enough to hold its shape. My daughter kept dipping into my bowl and slurped the most of the miso soup up.

Read moreMy all-time favourite restaurant. I always felt at home whenever I was there. Furusato always prepares the food with warmth and care. The lady boss is always friendly and makes sure the customers enjoy their meals and always asks for feedback to improve the service and quality of their food. My favourite foods during winter are ramen with chicken karaage and tempura udon. The udon texture is unique, and so far, it is the best that I ever had. The broth is tasty, and most importantly, I do not get thirsty even after finishing the whole bowl of broth. On a super-hungry day, a bento meal will always be my first choice; it comes in a huge portion at a super reasonable price. Furusato is indeed a restaurant that always takes care of their customers’ welfare and ensures everyone is happy and enjoys the food at all times. I can't wait to go back...
