Kagetsu Arashi Ramen @ Star Vista Review

Kyahooo~~

I went to try a new Ramen shop at Star Vista a while ago after cosfest :3 

Kagetsu Arashi !

What's special about their store is their 

Special Condiments ~ !!!

I will show you how they look like later ! :D

Meanwhile, here's a sample of their menu set :)

I had their Arashi Ginkotsu Ramen set :3 which comes with Gyoza 

Ee-chan ordered their Teppan Itameshi and a topping of Ramen egg  !!

here's my order

do note that the egg in the ramen itself is not a ramen egg :( 

its a full boiled egg  ! :'(

Luckily, Ee-chan suspected this and had ordered the extra Ramen egg :

Tralala !!

The Ramen egg came whole , but Ee-chan CUT IT IN HALF before I can take a picture of it ! TAT so here's the badly cut half

in you go ~~~

Now, as for the Ramen itself !!

The Noodle

 smooth, firm and with the right chewiness :3 Loves !!

The Menma and Nori is the ole good stuff, as usual  :3

tasty , although nothing new or out of the ordinary ^^

The Cha Shu 

I have not much qualms about the Cha Shu ,

its not as savory and umami as I would prefer it to be , and its a little bit on the tough side 

:( but then again, I always prefer juicy, savory cha shu, and so far nothing can beat Tonkotsu Four Season's Summer set's Cha Shu and Marutama's side order Cha Shu(not the ramen cha shu, but side order one) 

Now, lets move on to the promised Condiments !!

Kagetsu's special in house seasoned chives !! 

Its pretty savory and spicy !! 

If you love something like belachan or any strong, spicy condiments, this is guaranteed to be a very pleasant topping for you ^^ I personally quite like it because I love spicy food~

The special soy sauce and pepper ^^ 

Ee-chan claimed that the soy sauce is unique and tasty ^^ he loves it !

 I feel like its a little bit on the soft side :/ 

so here you have it ^^

Pepper is fragrant but taste-wise is unremarkable 

 

Plus Yukari , something the Japanese usually use to flavor Ume (plum) 

Ee-chan loves the taste , but I personally dont like Ume, and the flavor really reminded me of ume (kinda tangy) so I ditched this after my first try TAT;;;

Ee-chan's Teppan Itameshi

tastes like normal fried rice to me :( Ee-chan was expecting the eggs to be a little bit undercooked but it came out overcooked :( I'm not really into this as I feel that its a little bit overpriced for its taste .. but Ee-chan is on the fence about his :/

Our Gyoza

the Gyoza is surprisingly pleasant ^^ crunchy on the outside, with just enough soft skin wrapping the juicy meat. The garlic is just nice, not too overpowering ^^ so its kindof an unexpected saving grace :)

Overall :) 

The Ramen is all right , not the best in town and I dont think it can beat Keisuke Four Season's or Tampopo's ,  but it is  a decent one compared to some generic  chains like Ajisen ^^ I love the noodle's texture, the seasoned chives, the gyoza and the ramen egg though :3 so they kinda saves the experience ^^ The Teppan Itameshi can be improved I think ( I personally think its not worth it :/ ) . Ambience is good (its not too noisy) :3

Service

the staff are really really really super polite and friendly !! =[]= there's even this staff who keeps on apologizing to us for having us move seat and helped us with our luggage (as Ee-chan and I came straight from Cosfest ) . Orders arrived fast and ....

They provide baskets beside each tables for customers to store their belongings on !! 

I see many lady customers putting their hand bags in xD but I have no hand bag with me x'D so here;s my small wallet hahaha!!

Here's a clearer pic of their menu if you're int ! :)

As an info, 

They're opening at Tampines too if you'e interested  ;D 

~ Randomness ~

aaaaand~ 

Here's what I saw when I went out of the restaurant !! HAHAHA

Larva !!!

xD

I changed my FB cover picture ~ xD !!!

Just a short update :3 

In the midst of my boredom, (although indeed I am supposed to be studying because next week is my exam week T_T) I did some editing and ended up with a new picture, so I figure... might as well change either my facebook profile or cover picture :P 

And in the end , I changed my FB cover picture !!!

from this 

old and not so nice picture OTL

to this : 

a nicer one :3

^^

Hahahaha, 

Lots of learn I still have :3

Now , I have to scurry back to my room to study , 

so ... byebye ~!!! 

^^ 

MinnaCon 女子高生 Mini Photoshoot ~ ❤

Kyahoo~~ 

Did a mini impromptu shoot at MinnaCon with Ee-chan last time :3

Took me  a while to finally open the photo folder and sieve out the nicer ones OTL...

its really like... 

a first world problem ... T_T 

no matter how good your camera, lighting etc is , 

there will always be weird faces /poses amongst the pictures 

and since Im not one of those picture perfect people who looks pretty from all angles 

I have to move to certain angles to get a good photo 

AND ! Even with extra effort put into posing, there will still be photos where I look like aunties hahahaha xD 

SO, 

here are the cream of the crop !! :3

the rest doesnt survive ^^"

Ee-chan helped me add some captions to the pictures just for fun because I am on MC today, taking a break off studying for an hour because I really have no mood studying now T_T <despite it being so close to my exam> 

We're both still learning, so... hope its decent :3 

彼はいつ来るのかな ... ?

今日は~ !!

何かお探しですか？

お名前はなんですか?

いって来ます~!!

and this .. was what I uploaded when I was sick last week xD 

二日間の悪い気分の後で、喉の痛み・

風邪・腹痛のコンボに諦めました OTL... >.<;;;　

ですから、今日は家で...T_T;;;　

こんな感じで落ち込んでます...

「After 2 days of feeling unwell , I surrendered to a very bad sore throat, cold, and tummy ache this morning .... >,<;;;

So... Today , Im stuck at home... T_T;;; 

Kinda felt like this now... 」

Cant think of any caption anymore ... hahahaha x'D 

I experimented a bit with effects here to change the shirt colour... , 

well, still doesnt look natural enough T_T but I really hope to improve...

will practice more given I have the  time ~

^^

いてらっしゃい~!!

That's all :3 

Still way to go , more to learn ^^

❤ Yayoi Ken Review ❤

Hello~ Hello~~~

As you may have known I've been going around doing my usual stuff :

finding and eating nice Jap food x'D!!!

So lately, allow me to share my recent findings with you ! :D

YAYOIKEN !

"More than 125 years ago, a western food restaurant opened in Kayabacho, Tokyo.  At a time when western cuisine was still rare in Japan, “Yayoiken”, as the restaurant was called, is said to have been cherished by many for its pioneering menus. The original owner was the grandfather of Sueyuki Shioi, the founder of Plenus Co., Ltd.

Yayoiken has opened here in Singapore to follow in its predecessor’s footsteps. 

Having successfully developed a restaurant chain in Japan, and then an expansion into Thailand, we are now among you in Singapore to offer you our unique brand and our new location. "

The first time I went there is at the Somerset branch :3

I've been to this restaurant a few times and for the price, I'd say they do give a decent portion and it does taste nice ! :3

They provided us with some pickled vegetable thing which Ee-chan really digs too xD

I'm not a big fan of pickles but yup! This isnt bad at all :D

While waiting for our food to be served, the green tea is served !!! 

Look at the pretty green colour ~ xD 

And ... 

the dishes are served!!

 I ordered Oyakodon +Zaru Udon combi 

because I'm quite a big eater hehehehe xD 

My Oyako don and Zaru Udon !!!!

Taste

It REALLY taste nice 

Worth it?

Yes for the price :3 It taste nice and given the portion , it's pretty filling 

some menu are more expensive tho , so its up to you to order with discretion :3

and they ahve FREE FLOW of japanese rice too if you're a huge carbo eater ;'D

Service

The service is good too (the servers are VERY polite , and when they had to shift our table ,with me and my truckload of bags since I've just finished my bonJapan workshift that day,  they impeccably managed to coordinate such that everything was moved swiftly! ) 

The second time I went was at another branch at Bugis Iluma !! :D

.... cant remember but that was when my Kouhai Natalie gave me her hard-earned MISA's LoL photobook!!! I was like TAT;;;; *tears* 

MISAAAAAAAAAAA!!!! *proceed to ogle at her pretty face all day long *

Hahaha thank you for being such a sweetie Nat~ xD 

Ordered :

same awesome food and portion!!!

In the end... I celebrated my belated birthday party *read it here* there too ^^"" hahahaha... Anyway that's it for today ;D Hope this is useful to you especially if you're looking for a nice place to eat :3 cya~
