After a good badminton session, we were hungry and decided to try out this relatively new Japanese restaurant at Northpoint level 1, which often sees long queues. Fortunately there was only 1 family in front of us in the queue at about 1.30pm. The service staff told us that a table would be ready for us soon as they "were preparing it now", but the "soon" became about 15 min and we got even hungrier. Luckily the food were served quite fast after we ordered. We ordered 1 bowl each of the followin
Luckily the food were served quite fast after we ordered. We ordered 1 bowl each of the following: Spicy Tonkatsu Ramen, Curry Cheese Ramen and Crabmeat & Mushroom Omelette Ramen (forgot the nice name they gave to this last ramen ).
The Spicy Tonkatsu Ramen and Crabmeat & Mushroom Omelette Ramen's soup base actually tasted exactly the same, other than the added chilli on top of the spicy tonkatsu version. My friend and I both felt that the soup base was a bit diluted, and the aftertaste was very oily for me. I had the Crabmeat & Mushroom Omelette Ramen without spring onions. There wasn't too much of crabmeat or mushroom in the omelette, most of the time I was merely eating the plain fried egg.
As for the Curry Cheese Ramen which another friend ordered, I tried some of the soup & it was better than ours, thicker with a good Japanese curry flavour. However he thought that it was only average when he finished his bowl.
Overall we all thought this restaurant is nothing much to rave about, perhaps the long queues especially at meal times had given people a wrong perception that it would be a great ramen place.
