Ippudo Ramen @ Mandarin Gallery – YSK

Heyyy guys, are you craving for ramen or are you craving for your weekly dose of YSKeats? 😉 Lets find out!

By the way, if you know how to read chinese, this place is called 一风堂 Fuuyoh! How swag is that sial!! Ok back to the main topic, so I visited this place with my secondary school friends to catch up with one another. Below are the 3 different types of ramen we ordered

Karaka-men $19 (pork broth with sweet and spicy miso bean sauce with Japanese pepper)

Akamaru Shinaji $19 (pork broth with special blended miso paste and garlic oil)

Shiromaru Motoaji $18 (original pork broth)

So I had the pork broth with miso and garlic oil one that day and to be honest it was a very standard bowl of ramen lor

For this price, it is not worth it in my opinion.

Being the first ippudo outlet in Singapore and having so many good reviews written about it, I embraced myself to be blown away but meh..

The soup was slightly richer than normal ramen stalls but that was it. My friends did not gave any compliments as well which basically means it isn’t very good?

If you are confused about whether or not to try Ippudo, let’s just say maybe it was good when it started out? After quite a few years of operation and so many outlets opening, getting slack and complacent is possible. Another possibility may be due to more and more ramen shops opening in singapore compared to maybe 7-8 years back? What makes you stand out? Ippudo certainly doesn’t in my opinion.

That’s all for this week’s post! Peace (:
