This is the perfect soup for cold rainy days! There was alot of pig stomach slices and a fair bit of ginko in the soup. I also found some barley & tofu skin at the bottom of the bowl. It was all very yummy but the star of the show was definitely the soup! It was flavoury and peppery, perfect for warming yourself up on a cold day. Best thing is your get a free one time soup refill, how awesome is that!

I got myself the Hokubee Ribeye Don and added their 63 degree egg for $2. The egg was a huge disappointment - the yolk wasn't runny and the egg white looked slightly greyish in colour.

There was a generous amount of beef in the bowl and the beef itself was not bad. There was quite a bit of fats but it didn't taste oily at all. Furikake was added to the rice and while it was nice, I felt like it took the attention away from the beef. I wouldn't mind coming back to try the other dishes.

I always eat from this shall whenever I'm at Shaw's Food Republic. This time I got the plain rice with stir-fried potato, eggplant, japchae and seaweed. I forgot to stir my rice this time and it ended up a bit burnt because it's served in a hot stone bowl. The rice portion seem significantly lesser then the first two times I was there. I really liked the japchae, whereas the other dishes were ok but nothing to shout about.

The Taj Mahal wrap consisted of tandoori chicken, lettuce, cherry tomatoes, cucumber and red onions in a mint yoghurt dressing. I chose the spinach wrap and I really liked this combination because you can clearly taste the flavourful tandoori chicken paired with the healthy crunch of the various vegetables. The wrap was really big and kept me full (but I didn't feel bloated at all) all the way till dinner. Will definitely order this again!

We were here on a Thurs evening and it was full house with quite a number of people in the queue. It was supposedly a 50 min wait for me, but I got a table after just 10 mins!




I got the Roasted Pistachio for myself and the flavour was pretty intetesting! It tasted like fried garlic chips which I quite liked. What I really liked was the waffle! It was crisp yet fluffy and really fragrant. I could just have the waffle alone with some maple syrup and it'll still be super satisfying!
