A Ramen Affair @ Daikokuya

Gal had cravings for ramen and suggested Daikokuya @ Raffles City. I have never been to this ramen place before, wonder how would it be like......

having a hard time choosing her ramen ...
and somehow a serious look =p

My Miso Ramen !! It comes with an egg, cha siew, some corn and a nice miso-based soup! To me, a tasty tamago is very impt ! Here, the egg was quite soft and the yolk was not thoroughly cooked, which was a plus point. The char siew was quite soft and tender, but still pale in comparison with the one from Marutama.

Gal's Spicy Miso Ramen. Everything was the same as mine, except for the spicy miso soup. Thumbs up ! Gal like her ramen too =)

We have tried 5 restaurants that specialise in ramen and decided to rank them accordingly to our preference. Here's gal's choice:

1st - Marutama Ramen
2nd - Daikokuya
3rd - Tampopo
4th - Santouka Ramen
5th - Ken's Noodle House

Gal says: "Marutama still tops the list due to its eggs and the char siew that literally melts in the mouth. A close match between Tampopo and Santouka as both are not really nice, especially the eggs. Maybe we ordered the wrong thing. Ken's Noodle house? I dun like the noodle."

And my choice?

1st - Marutama Ramen
2nd - Daikokuya
3rd - Santouka Ramen
4th - Ken's Noodle House
5th - Tampopo

Marutama Ramen still top my list. Daikokuya was second mainly due to its tamago and char siew, which is much better then the remaining outlets. As for why Tampopo came in last? Maybe I ordered the wrong ramen. I ordered the Tonkatsu Ramen, which has a strong Pig taste, something that I dun like. And I gotta pay $2 for a tamago, which was quite blend and the yolk was over-cooked.

By the way, we have yet to make a trip to Ippudo Ramen. Hmm......

A shot for my gal...
