This ramen restaurant is a hit with the office crowds during lunch break and is usually packed during lunch time 'rush hour'. Yet the dining feeling is totally different when it opens for business during evenings. I think you should come and eat at different times of the day to get what I mean.

The waitresses and waiters over there are using PDAs to take your orders, making their service more fast and efficient. They briefed on me about the POS (point-of-sale) system that is developed specially for restaurant. They will take your orders, hit a 'send' and out your orders from the POS system to the kitchen printers through wireless Lan connection.

ooh.. this Japanese ramen restaurant also has a branch @ tiong bahru plaza on the second level.

I had been to both. Well, I could say that there is a difference in ambience although using the same food concept. The one at far east square have an unique setting - it has an warm and welcoming home 'feel' - perfectly suitable for group gatherings, couples, families, casual and business meetings; while the branch has a Zen style theme.

Besides their zhao pai cai - which is the fiery hot and spicy ramen, this Japanese restaurant also serves good side dishes such as gyoza, age dashi tofu, prawn tempura, wasabi prawn and sushi/sashimi. Then after your main meal, you can enrich your fulfilling tummy with a good hot sake or their home-brewed hot green tea, and savour their special dessert favourites - healthy juicy fresh fruits ice yogurts to enjoy a wonderful yummy eXperience.

Their charges are reasonably fair, and their customer service is deem prompt and friendly enough.

after reading abt how good it was here, i finally went for the ramen @ Beppu Menkan (Far East Sq) last night & had it at 1 chilli.. since it was my 1st visit, i didn't wanna be too ambitious.

i muz say that the service was prompt, the ramen was full of flavour & it was served with a huge prawn, sweet fresh scallop, pieces of lean beef & not forgetting a rather big mussel by the bowl too.. at 1 chilli, i find the chilli powder didn't overpower the sweet flavour of the corn-based soup... easily thumbs up for me.

tried the salmon sashimi too.. fresh, tangy & great presentation..

the mixed-fruits yoghurt ice sealed the meal in a fruity healthy way.. Wink
