I love this place! OMG it's not overly crowded on a public holiday and the ambiance was lovely like a japanese village. order the Hokke lunch set that cost about $11+. Totally worth it. The fish was excellently prepared and a squeeze of lime did the trick in making it extra appetising. Will definitely be back again to try out more unique authentic japanese offerings.

Feel like having noodles again so decided to try Crystal Jade's Black Pepper Chicken Udon dish. Not bad. The udon were al-dente. firm but not hard. Chicken was also ok. But somehow I just can't finish this dish although I was super hungry earlier on. Perhaps after awhile the sauce became a tad flat and heavy so my appetite turned for the worst. Guess I'm gonna try other dish next time.

The rice noodles were QQ and the beef slices were also QQ! Nope. No strong beefy smell/taste Broth was clear, light and garnished with suan cai (Chinese sauerkraut). But for guys, you may wish to order extra noodles. My pal who are a bowl of this goodness was hungry again after 2 hours. Perfect dish when it is raining.

Comfy place for lunch gathering but the food is just average. Had the Kung Bao chicken set meal that comes with a plate of side dishes comprising of some odd veg and 1/2 of a salted egg. I liked the soup though. it was those herbal type of soup. Anyway back to the chicken. Meat was in bite-size, so you don't choke yourself while babbling away over lunchtime with your colleagues. Sauce was just as you would have expected an average Kung Bao chicken dish to be. Not too spicy. Not must character. Perhaps that's where it went wrong.

Indeed, the Corn Ramen is the most unassuming dish in the wide variety of ramen available at Ajisen BUT corn lovers can never resist the sweet allure of corn. That said, Ajisen should consider adding more corn and work on the noodles. Find that the noodles are a tad hard and tasteless. Broth was ok but definitely can be improved. Not asking for too much since Ajisen brand itself as a ramen joint, it has better buck up lest fickle customers flock over to the many other japanese restaurants mushrooming around the island
