Ippudo Singapore (Mandarin Gallery)

i find the urges to vandalise this
Hur hur hur..


Anyways I'm here at Somerset
We'll be having one of my 6,000 farewell dinners
Make a guess what I'll be having today
Hint: Its Japanese cuisine
A. Teppanyaki
B. Ramen
C. Kaiseki Ryouri
D. Bukkake


So what is your answer?


If your answer is B, you're right
We're here at Ippudo Singapore for some Ramen


The menu comes in 2 languages
Japanese and English
with a simple description of the dishes below the item name


The service is prompt and warm
Staff were very attentive and responsive
Offered descriptions about the dishes
and are always wearing a smile
Its amazing


Orange juice
$4
If I'm not wrong, its Sunkiss bottled fresh


Ippudo is a rather famous ramen chain in Tokyo, Japan
They finally opened a chain here in Singapore
The design of the ramen restaurant is pretty unusual for a ramen ten
which is usually small and cozy with bright lightings
Here we can find contemporary furnitures and designs
Its pretty spacious too
I swear its the first time I'm eating ramen in a place like this


On the walls, we have manga of the restaurant
educating customers on the extra services they provide
1. You can choose how chewy you want your ramen to be
2. You can order an additional ball of noodles to add into your soup


Our diners today - Shermaine

KING MING


Agedashi Tofu
$10
Soft and tasty


Gyoza
$6
These dumplings are really mini-sized
for a pig like myself
I personally find the fillings too little
but its pretty tasty, yes


Shiromaru Ramen
$15.00
First, I find that the soup is not thick enough
Ok, there's no second
I've no issues with it other than the soup
If I'm paying $15, I'm expecting super thick soup
The portion size is pretty alright
Ramen taste pretty good


Thin ramen noodles
But the additional egg is horrible
1. The yolk is fully cooked when it should be creamy, soft and semi-watery
2. The yolk is yellow and not orange, why?


Shoyu Ramen
$15.00


Akamaru Ramen
$15.00
I kinda prefer this to my shiromaru
cos the taste is more robust in comparison
and it costs the same T_T


Kaedama
$2.00
I added another portion of ramen noodles
and something felt missing
I realise I din want to eat an additional portion of noodles
but want to enjoy the action of having the chef/cook
scoop and toss the noodles into my bowl
You know? Like Naruto in Ichiraku Ramen Bar
But it came in a bowl, oh well!

Total Damage: $90.60 for 3 pax

General Ratings
Food Quality: 8/10
Food Portion Size: 8/10
Value for Money: 7/10
Beverage Quality: 8/10
Service: 10/10
Ambience: 10/10

Other Remarks: I wouldn't call it contemporary Ramen Ten, it just lost many of the essence you would wish to experience in a conventional one.

Two under-exposed photos by Edwin
Ok, must teach him how to use Manual mode
when I come back to Singapore


Do you know Michael Jackson acted
as the Scarecrow in a remake of
Wizard of Oz, called The Wiz (1978)
and it was a massive flop?


Tampines is becoming a dangerous place
A month ago, a teenage girl was robbed
and stabbed twice in the stomach in the lift
Now we have security cameras
Hurray!

FIN!
