Mathias and I have somehow been craving for good ramen for the past 2 weeks. Last Saturday, I brought my uncle, aunty, and cousins to Momotaro Ramen. Before we went to this place, Mat and I tried another japanese food in another place, and the ramen was terrible, the gyoza was just so so.

Momotaro has one of the best gyoza I’ve ever tasted!

Chicken Gyoza

Vegetarian Gyoza

It was really really good! You can even buy their frozen gyoza.

And the ramen… heaps better than the one we tried the week before.

Mathias ordered this ramen in pork bone soup.

And I ordered mine in chicken soup.

The size of the bowl is at least 10 inches in diameter. I think my uncle and aunty got a shock.

The restaurant is a very tiny little shop. Very near my church. Wish it opens on Sundays though. Will definitely go back to this place to eat!

Take a look at this restaurant’s claim:

-No MSG-

It was the 2nd time that we’re eating here. Not because the food is superbly nice, but because the group of friends that we’re eating with:

1) Prefers chinese/asian food
2) Family with prams/buggies/babies/kids is king in making the decision on where to eat

Environment ok. Got tv to watch olympics somemore.

Staff… ok lah… 2nd time we’re here, that one guy waiter still has that sour grape attitude.

Space… don’t think there’s enough space for a buggy.

Price: $8-$12

After your orders are taken, they serve you a small bowl of soup.

Just 2 cubes of carrots and 1 cube of turnip

The soup is kind of like a complementary starter. Eventhough they were very “generous” with the contents, the soup was alright. Good flavours.

I ordered myself a cantonese fried noodles with chicken.

Chicken very tender! Good sized portion. Could do with a little more salt, tasted a little bland.

Mat, ordered the Spicy Fried Chicken Ribs……

AGAIN!!!

The first time we came here, Mat ordered this dish. And this 2nd time, I think he forgot what he ordered the last time, and when the food came… he wanted to knock his head on the table.

Why?

The 1st time he ordered it, this dish was absolutely tasteless. I think they even ran out of salt that time.

But fortunately, this 2nd time, the dish had more taste. I think they remembered to stock up on salt. But I liked the crispiness of the chicken batter. Nicely done… but then again, could do with a little more salt.

So how do we know whether this restaurant uses MSG or not?

Easy…

We weren’t thirsty after that meal
