Keisuke Tokyo Ramen at Millenia Walk

as i pen down this entry, i realised i ate the ramen 2 weeks ago. OH GOD. dont ask me where on earth did my time fly to, cause i have no idea. i blame it solely to my work. as always, i am tired and sleepy after work.

nvm, i don really like the ramen anyway!! so, its not worth mentioning it off first hand. HAHAHA.
and pui, this awful ramen was meant to be a treat for XX's commencement of work the coming Monday.

its Fridays again! and Fridays are meant to roam around in town searching for good food. it is said to be truly the king of Japanese ramen broth.

but, i dont get all the raves abt this shop!!!! 0.O

there are two Keisuke shops in Singapore – Keisuke Tokyo Ramen at Millenia Walk and Keisuke Tonkotsu King at Orchid Hotel. apparently, the standards of the Millenia Walk branch pales in comparison with the tanjong pajar branch. pls pls, go to the tanjong pajar branch. LOL.

i shall head to tanjong pajar to try the legendary ramen where everyone claimed to be authentically delicious one day. until i tried it myself, else it will remain as a claim. afterall, the branch failed me terribly.

i have tried so many different ramen in Singapore throughout the yrs alr. i trust my own taste buds to determine which suits me best. LOL.

with severely overcooked pork bones, i thought i saw a pig in front of me. not my XX of course. but a real pink pig. oh god. sense the pain. for the first time in my life, i actually detest ramen with such strong pork after taste. LOL. it was too rich, too overwhelming, i thought it was sickening and puke inducing.

Copied this detail from a review:
1.Soup base : original, spicy and peppery
2.Taste of the soup : light, normal and strong
3.Chicken oil : less, normal and more
4.Noodle texture : soft, normal and hard
5.Prices : $10.80 to 15.80 depends on ingredients
6.Diner can opt out some ingredients like spring onion, black fungus and char siew
7.Soup and noodle can be refilled with $2 each
8.Marinated bean sprouts and boiled egg are free flow. (free boiled egg only apply to tanjong pajar branch)

this is free flow. which i don think its very nice. LOL.

no, i am not exaggerating. i didnt even order the strong taste soup. i ordered the normal taste soup. and it turned out to be a disaster. apparently, Japanese must really really like strong porky bone essence taste.

full of collagen.

look at how OPAQUE  the soup is. its opaque. i cannot see through. full of pork. pls imagine a pig there. HAHAHAHA. to me, its too thick, too flavourful, too milky, too salty.

nvm, the fragrance egg didnt managed beat my tampopo standard. this is fail egg. LOL. its not soft and flowly enough.

While I may have preferred the noodles and special char siew over at Marutama, and the tamago at Tampopo, soup base at the paragon ramen (i forgot the name of the shop!)

i am sorry to say but this is the worst of the lot. LOL. it painful eating this. waste my $$. T.T

this is the unique, unusual, non conventional crab based broth.
its so fishy, i see a fish there. i literally, almost puked. OH GOD. this is my worst ramen experience.

even sliced fish soup is not as fishy.
Photobucket

no, i swear i am not exaggerating.

nvm, i shall try the tanjong pajar branch, where everyone is raving.
no one rave abt the millenia branch.
that must be the reason why the restaurant is kind of empty on friday night.
or is it due to F1? no, i choose to believe its due to the sucky broth. LOL.
