Ramen Dinner

Told you, once the parents are away, time for me to fly the coop too, lol. Only joking. We had to bring a fan that was recently bought for repair at Best Denki. So I thought since we would be out, might as well have dinner outside too, right? Makes sense, doesn't it?

We went to the nearest Best Denki which is at Great World City. It took the girls' father about 30 minutes to settle the fan's repair. We went to have dinner around 8pm at this newly opened Japanese Ramen restaurant, Bishamon Sapporo Ramen.

I ordered a Shio Ramen ($12) which came with a piece of Shar Chou, sliced bamboo shoots and sesweed, with additional orders of two soft boiled eggs ($1 each) (to share with the girls). The girls' father ordered a Special Miso Ramen ($13.50) which came with a piece of Shar Chou, sliced bamboo shoots, soft-boiled egg, corn, and seaweed. We also ordered Fried Prawns ($8) and Pork Katsu ($6) for the girls to share.



I think I have tasted better ramen. The soup for both our ramen were too salty for our liking. The shar chou wasn't the kind that would melt in your mouth when you bite into it. The ramen too, just didn't have enough bite to it when you bite into it. I was disappointed with this dinning experience. This is the first time that I wanted to get out of the restaurant as soon as possible.

The saving grace of today's dinner was the Orange Apricot Cake which we had at Cedele. =) I wanted some tea to wash down the saltiness of the ramen. We went to Cedele to have a look and chanced upon the lovely Orange Apricot Cake, lol. The cake was really yummy - the cream cheese frost icing on the cake and the sponge cake was not too moist nor dry. We enjoyed the cake very much and it went well with my peppermint tea. :)




The girls enjoyed themselves on the kiddie ride and "playing" on the XBox console. Future XBox gamers in the making? Lol.
