Menya Musashi @ Raffles City

Menya Musashi @ Raffles City

It has been barely a few weeks since the opening of the renowned Tokyo Ramen eatery on our shores but she has managed to draw a consistently long queue throughout the day- at least that has been what I am hearing from many of my friends. With around eleven outlets in Japan, the 1,350 square...
Rakuzen @ Tampines NTUC Income Building

Rakuzen @ Tampines NTUC Income Building

A restaurant serving Japanese fare set at wallet- friendly prices within the heartlands? Rakuzen’s second outlet that is situated right opposite Tampines Sports Stadium, has been gathering a sizeable following since her opening just last year. Committed to offering high quality creations with many of her ingredients  imported directly from Japan, a couple of friends...
Nantsuttei @ Parco Marina Bay

Nantsuttei @ Parco Marina Bay

Yet another Ramen eatery in the mini Japanese gourmet town at Parco Marina Bay (the other being Keisuke Tokyo), Nantsuttei has been drawing a growing fan-base since her opening two years ago. Specializing in the use of Kuro Mayu (garlic oil) in their creations, much hype has been generated about the popular outlet- especially with their...
Standing Sushi Bar @ Queen Street

Standing Sushi Bar @ Queen Street

It has been a while since I have had Japanese food. Since my friend, K and I were around the city area, I suggested that we pay a visit to Standing Sushi Bar, located right opposite Food For Thought since I was pretty much against the idea of making a trip down to Sushi Tei...
Melange Cafe @ Zhongshan N. Road

Melange Cafe @ Zhongshan N. Road

Prior to my visit, I have heard of raving reviews about Taipei’s Melange Cafe and their widely acclaimed top- notch waffles. Melange’s business has apparently grown to be so brisk that they have set up another branch located just two or three units away, just to cater to the overwhelming crowd that the main outlet often receives. When we arrived at the...
Keisuke Tokyo @ Parco Marina Bay

Keisuke Tokyo @ Parco Marina Bay

It has been quite some time since Bryan and I had a meal together and as such, both of us decided to satisfy my cravings for fine and authentic Ramen. Situated away from the rows of shops in Millenia Walk and well-nestled within Parco Marina Bay (which is still within the entire same building itself), we got slightly lost while...
Sui Japanese Dining @ Neil Road

Sui Japanese Dining @ Neil Road

Located along a stretch of shop houses on Neil Road, Sui Japanese Dining recently relocated here from its old premises just a few blocks down. Having been around for a couple of years already, we decided to pay this restaurant a visit after hearing strong recommendations from a friend. With chic and cosy appeal, the...
Freshness Burger @ Causeway Point

Freshness Burger @ Causeway Point

Definitely one of the more uncommon dining venues situated at this heartland mall, the excellent location (just right infront of Woodlands MRT Station) seems to be drawing quite a remarkable crowd for a weekday evening. Anyway, my family and I decided to drop by for a quick bite, judging by the variety of burgers the Japanese fast-food joint...
Gyoza no Ohsho @ Cuppage Plaza

Gyoza no Ohsho @ Cuppage Plaza

My friend, R had decided to bring us to one of his favorite venues to satisfy his craving for good Ramen . I have never been to Cuppage Road and as such, I was slightly amazed when my friends brought me to this small stretch of road beside Centrepoint. Having been more attracted to the popular shopping malls around in town, it was a...
Santouka @ The Central

Santouka @ The Central

One of my favorite haunts to satisfy my Ramen cravings, Santouka is well hidden in the extreme corner of The Central. Directly facing the Singapore River and overlooking Clark Quay, diners are expected to look forward to a no-frills and laid back dining experience at Santouka.  The small and simple restaurant is very popular with...
Noodle House Ken @ Orchard Plaza

Noodle House Ken @ Orchard Plaza

Noodle House Ken is a small ramen eatery tucked away in a quiet little corner along Orchard Road. Located in Orchard Plaza, a small shopping centre with numerous tailors and electronics shops, Noodle House Ken occupies two shopfronts: one with the kitchen and a ramen bar and the other with a bar counter and several...
AJInoMORI @ Holland Village

AJInoMORI @ Holland Village

My attention was diverted when I was about to step into Yoshimaru Ramen Bar by JUMBO;  the large advertisement banner on the wall of AJInoMORI caught my attention. As such, I decided to venture out of my original dinner plans. AJInoMORI is a casual Japanese dining area, hidden in a little corner of the cosy Holland Village enclave....
