I may have started something dangerous. I tried Uji's Japanese cheesecake yesterday. It was exactly my kind of dessert - not too sweet, fluffy, cheesy. I have never had Japanese cheesecake before, so I cannot gauge if it was better than others, but it was excellent. Note - there seemed to be two cakes that looked like cheesecake - one looked more typically North American. I got the smaller, more cake-like type.

We also got a slice of the mango mille crepe cake, which, while sweeter, was also good.

Another pic of the Spicy Tonkotsu Shoyu Ramen, which was still enjoyable on my latest visit, although you can see that the egg was not as nicely done as the previous time. A warning that they really don't have much in the way of vegetarian options here...

The Spicy Tonkotsu Shoyu Ramen ($11.95) was pretty good! With a rich and porky gravy, toothsome noodles, nicely charred pork belly, tasty mushrooms, and a well made egg, it exceeded my expectations. The spice level was noticeable but not extreme in any sense. Accompanying the ramen bowl are two tasty gyozas. A tasty lunch option indeed!

Ordering is done by filling out an order sheet, paying at the counter, and then receiving an order number on a bunny-themed stick. The food is then brought out to your table (identified by bunny-stick-mounted order number) on a tray. After eating, you take your tray to the self disposal station and distribute its components amongst the most appropriate receptacles.

The Matcha Latte ($4.95) was nicely made and presented, and had all the matcha flavour a person could ask for. I'm not a huge matcha fan in general but this lightly sweetened drink tasted quite good to me.

The Japanese Cheesecake ($3.50 for a slice) is light and milky. This would be a nice accompaniment to a hot beverage!
