Un-delicious donburi

Lunch ... where to go? Ever since I came back from Japan, I am hooked on Japanese food ... once again. I thought I can put my trust in the many Japanese eateries around. Clearly I had forgotten how the run-of-the-mill Jap eateries in Singapore sucks ... big time! Even Waraku is somewhat lacking ...

So today I ordered Char Siew Ramen. The soup is not overly salty, which my Dad and Mum complained frequently when they had it at other places. There are thin streaks of fat in the char siew, which oh la la, MELTS in your mouth! Bravo!!! No sick feeling from the fats here. No pic here, I was rushing into the ramen.

CP order Unagi Donburi. Tasteless was the miso soup that accompanied it. The tamago slices don't blend with the unagi taste. Worst, I doubt they used Japanese rice. It looks like some poor quality rice instead, a bit elongated in shape to pass off as genuine Japanese rice. The rice was cooked too soft and mashed in places. Hey, it tasted more and more like some of the old rice I ate before.

What crap ... crap.



The sake sashimi wasn't any better. Although they gave big slices of salmon, it was tasteless.
