I've been hearing so much good reviews about this restaurant so decided to meet a friend for lunch there on a Saturday. We met at 11.50am so as to avoid the lunchtime queue, & was glad we did as from 12pm the crowd started to stream in!Prices start from $15++ for a bowl of Ippudo ramen. I ordered the 1st ramen on the menu called Shiromaru Motoaji, basically it is a bowl of thin noodles served with1 slice of Rosu Chasu (Pork Loin), cabbage & kikurage. I made a special request not to add spring on
Prices start from $15++ for a bowl of Ippudo ramen. I ordered the 1st ramen on the menu called Shiromaru Motoaji, basically it is a bowl of thin noodles served with1 slice of Rosu Chasu (Pork Loin), cabbage & kikurage. I made a special request not to add spring onions. According to the menu, this is Hakata-style ramen. The portion wasn't very big, possibly jus nice for ladies. But I was a bit surprised cos I thought traditional Japanese style usu serve big soup portions?
Anyway, not sure if it is cos of too many good reviews I heard, aft taking the 1st sip of the soup, I thought it was just ok only. Nothing so marvellous abt it. Yes the soup base is very tasty, but then it had some ginger taste in it (I'm not a fan of ginger though I dun hate it). But the fact tat there was only 1 pc of chasu & I was paying $15++ for it didn't make me feel good. There was no other ingredients except for some shreds of cabbage & the kikurage.
My friend ordered the Karaka-Men with an extra topping of an egg (Tamago) ($17++, Tamago $2++). It's original pork broth with special spicy miso & ground pork. It looked very spicy / red & he said it was good & delicious.
The iced green tea which we ordered cost $3++ each, is a very small glass of sugarless green tea, exactly like the hot green tea u drink in Japanese restaurants, with ice that's all.
If u ask me whether I would eagerly want to visit this restaurant again, I'm afraid no. I think there are other equally nice Japanese ramen restaurants with cheaper prices too. Even the dining experience wasn't tat great as everyone (unless u specify u dun wan to) shares tables with other diners on long wooden "benches".
