"I Will Start Dieting When the World Runs Out of Ramen" is one of the quirky quotes Seoul Xpress displays on their shop front, which got me laughing to myself. It is the latest funky fast food restaurant hangouts that opened in Jurong Point, and as I took a peek at the menu, I thought it seemed to be on the affordable side. With every order at Seoul Xpress, you get a very pretty free packet of tissue paper (But that was not why I ordered twice). The first thing that caught my eye were their Mand
"I Will Start Dieting When the World Runs Out of Ramen" is one of the quirky quotes Seoul Xpress displays on their shop front, which got me laughing to myself. It is the latest funky fast food restaurant hangouts that opened in Jurong Point, and as I took a peek at the menu, I thought it seemed to be on the affordable side.
With every order at Seoul Xpress, you get a very pretty free packet of tissue paper (But that was not why I ordered twice).
The first thing that caught my eye were their Mandoo (fried dumplings) that comes in 7 pieces - $4.50. It was sizzling hot when it arrived after about five minutes, and immediately I couldn't resist popping them into my mouth (and burnt my mouth in the process #facepalm). The dumpling skin was so crispy, yet not too oily. The fillings were meat-based and juicy, each piece consistent and well-done. Yummy!
The next thing that I ordered was the Beef Kalbi Ramen - $5.90 that was on promotion. The soup base is not thick enough for me, and slightly spicy too. The ramen felt like springy good instant noodles to me... well not too bad because I secretly adore instant noodles. The portion is pretty big, with an egg too. There was also a few pieces of seaweed in it.
Nothing too spectacular though, just filling and an "okay" standard.
As I was still feeling slightly peckish, I adventurously decided to order a random dessert on the menu, the Hotteok (Cinnamon Apple) - $1.90 which is a Korean pancake with fillings. I think it tasted more like bread rather than a pancake, the outer crust was only crunchy but a while and soon became tough-to-bite after about fifteen minutes.
The fillings were sweet and the sugar wasn't completely melted either. Not sure if it is supposed to be this way, but it was still an interesting try. However I'll probably stick with the usual ice-cream combination in future.
I think they might be quite short-handed as of now, it seems like the cashier is doubling up as the server too. There is also one manager and some kitchen staff. All of them are so polite and friendly, complete with cheerful smiles!
