Today, we are into Ramen fever again...
we found another delicious ads on Dolce magazine... the Miharu Ramen (sapporo style)
the ads looks tempting, saliva juices is flowing just beside my teeth and gum... and you began to slurp reading the ads...

the little stall is located just inside Gallery Hotel, near Robertson...

with all banners outside the hotel, there is no way u can miss it

 

it is only 12 noon, but the little humble stall is already half pack with people

table necessities are simple, soya sauce, chilli oil, miso paste, chopstock, chilli powder

not really a open concept kitchen, but when are here,, u can already feel the japanese ambience.. too bad the waiteress are not japaneses :)

not really much of selection, but their focus are mainly the Sapporo Ramen, now lets see what we want

this is one of the recommeneded Gyokai-Dashi Ramen, the serving are not really that much compare to the one in Baikohken... but when the bowl is in front of you.. it makes u feels that you are half way there to Hokkaido...

the aroma of the same is really strong and smell good, and i almost finish the whole bowl of soup... the char siew are tender,, and talk abt the egg, this is the best egg i have tried,,, soft not hard, juicy not raw...

as for the ramen, texture is slightly better then Baikohken, bouncy, and slurpy too

my wife ordered a bowl of Shiro Miso Ramen, well  Baikohken is better then this,,, I am not saying that this Miso Ramen is no good, it still give you that aroma that u want, the egg is a really must try thing..

here comes our Boil Gyoza, one thing is for sure,, this has to be consume when it is still hot,,,
but nontheless, it is not as juicy as the one u tried in Lao Bei Jing...

But with the meat stuff in it... it can really jam up your stomach.. so one plate per 2 person will be just nice...

over all we spent S$38.84, some how a little on the high, but it is a good experience for you if you dont have the chance to try the sapporo ramen in japan... you can always try here too...

Both Baikohken and Miharu has their own uniqueness... if you ask me which are the best, I can tell you one thing for sure,,, they both are the best

After visiting our usual optician in Marina Square, we decided to take a slow walk in the mall to see what we can have for lunch..
We have seen this Azabu Sabo many times here, thinking they are the same in Hong Kong, and we have not patronise any of their food at all..
But this time, we decided to give them a try after seeing their great menu set banner outside their entrance...

Spacious and bright environment, and giving its correct touch, you can even arrange tea time with your friends and chat all day long...

if you want privacy, you can even sit behind this window panel too

look at this colourful lunch set menu, not only do they make you feel hungry, with great attractive prices behind it, you really hope that you can order more...

and if are not into their set lunch, you can always choose from their a-la-carte menu too...

after much consideration, we order a Omelette Curry Chicken from the set menu.. when the waiteress start to serve the dishes up to us.. we are shock to find that they are really generous with the portion too...

here you have salad to start with, the greens are fresh and so is the dice tomatoes, and obviously it taste even better with their "own" concoction of salad dressing to make it even more tastier..

the omelette is just right.. not too cooked and not too raw, and underneath the omelette are rice with chicken cube meat and with the little spicy curry go with it, yummy!!!!

as for me, i ordered Sabo Style Seafood Omelette from the A-La-carte menu.. presentation looks great.. let see what they have in for me

it is not the usual omelette that we use to see, it looks more like steam egg to me.. but after the 1st bite, you can really feel the heaven of the sea... prawn are meaty and bouncy, scallop are juicy, squid meat are crunchy and with the sauce that mix with the rice... i think you can sing "too much heaven from bee gees"

here come our Curry Croquette.. the fried skin are crispy and the potatoe paste are blend together with its Japanese curry .. nothing fantastic.. :)

free English tea that comes together with the lunch set, nice china ware that comes with it

and for the whole meal, it cost us S$32.25 / HKD 167 / US$ 21.20..
not only they are affortable, and with the less 20% stamp on the receipt, you can bring this along when u are having dinner, and get all charges less 20%

we have been reading this magazine "DOLCE" since last year, and it is free :) we get most of our eating places from this great magazine, and sometimes it can be quite boring too...

And this particular ads catches my wife eyes, and suggest that said why dont we try this, anyway, it is her Ramen addictive moment, and so why not...

it is satuday late morning, we drove all the way to Boat Quay, before going to the actual details, here are some nice view that i have took...
the eating place .....

the entrance close up

Name Card front - quite cor-porate looking

the back of the card

the sitting arrangement do has some jap feel, cosy corner, cosy sitting place...

old pictures of the ramen stall in japan the good old day

the table setting are really neat and tidy

this is something new,,, the ramen pepper

Colour menu is simple and easy to understand, this is not the only page,, they have one more page that i forget to take.. hehehe

Now, this is what my wife ordered...  Miso Butter Corn Ramen,

as you can see they are really generous with everything,.. the ramen, the bean sprout, and tasty miso broth, the corn, the bamboo shoot..
When u put the ramen into your mouth, the texture is something that you really dont have a word to comment, the bean sprout is really crunchy.. crunch crunch
The broth are not salty, and it taste very very very good, and it really makes you want to finish the whole broth....

as for me, I ordered a Miso Char Siew Ramen..

just look at the char siew, there are at least 5~6 pcs of if, and the char siew are almist 4~5 mm thick, soft, tender, juciy, and it melts in your mouth...
Miso broth taste a little spicy, and a little spicy doesnt kill the great miso taste...

the over all verdict.. this is a great great place to have a authentice ramen, just be careful that the serving are big, but they do have a mini version that cost half the original price...
here is the place:
