Uma Uma Ramen - New Ramen Restaurant at Millenia Walk

I was in Millennia Walk during lunch when I saw that a new Japanese ramen restaurant has opened up on Nihon Food Street, so I decided to check it out.

Uma Uma Ramen is a ramen restaurant by day and a bar by night. It is fully stocked with everything from gin to tequila and bourbon to scotch, not forgetting Japanese sales such as Yamazaki Distiller's Reserve and Hakushu Distiller's Reserve. There is currently a promotion going called Single & Twin Bottle(s) where you can get full bottles at a steal.

Lunch Set allows you to choose an additional topping for your ramen, a side dish and a drink.

This is the signature Uma Uma Ramen, served with mentaiko, chasiu, freshly-chopped spring onions, seaweed and a flavoured egg. The tonkotsu broth is not as spectacularly rich and creamy as Ramen Keisuke Tonkotsu King, but the al dente thin straight noodles make up a little. The flavoured egg is nicely done with a runny centre and the additional topping of menma (bamboo shoots) taste pretty good after being soaked in the broth for a bit.

If you want something a little stronger in taste, I would like to recommend Garlic Ramen, where the aromatic garlic oil adds a nice garlicky touch to the broth. Served with fried garlic, chasiu, white onions, flavoured egg and fresh crispy green sprouts, it is not that garlic once you mix everything up, but if you are still worried about having garlic breath after eating this, just drown a cup of green tea after your meal and you should be fine.

Two of the side dishes I have tried are Pork Belly Kushikatsu and Yaki Chasiu (Half). The Pork Belly Kushikatsu is a piece of pork belly on a skewer that is breaded and deep-fried, but it tatsespretty bland and the shoyu sauce and mayonnaise doesn't make it any better. Yaki Chasiu is a little over-marinated which makes it a little too salty but it is really the toughness of the meat that puts me off.
 
Uma Uma is a great little place for a quick meal of ramen in Millenia Walk, just don't be expecting astounding ramen and you should do just fine. I think the side dishes will go better with drinks and they should be taken out of the Lunch Set because they do not add value to the ramens which are good by themselves.

PAUL

PAUL is a renowned family French bakery and patisserie founded in 1889. Bringing with them them the fine tradition of passion for food and French traditions, PAUL gives Singaporeans a glimpse into French culture and tradition through the delicious and visually-appealing pastries and food.       PAUL's Hot Chocolate is not as creamy as I would have liked it but every last drop is made with good-quality cocoa powder.     Lemon Tart With Meringue is not exactly my favourite dessert, but it looked so pretty that I decided to give it a try anyway. However, it proved to be too sour for my palette even with the beautifully flamed meringue.    Croque Madame is croque-monsieur (grilled ham and cheese sandwich) topped with a fried egg. Emmental cheese, cream and ham is sandwich in pain de eie and toasted till a rich golden brown colour. Topped with a fried egg with runny yolk, every bite is filled with delicious goodness.   Address and telephone n...

O'ma Spoon

                        Korean bingsu is a popular Korean dessert comprising of ice shavings and various ingredients such as sweetened condensed milk, fruit syrups, fresh fruits, Korean rice cake and ice-cream. Bingsu is all the craze in Singapore now and Korean bingsu cafes are popping up everywhere like wild mushrooms.                            Besides bingsu, this dessert cafe also serves usual cafe offerings such as coffee and tea. I have been told that their Signature Oven-Baked Honey Bread is very good. The flavours include Strawberry & Chocolate with Ice Cream, Banana & Chocolate with Ice Cream and Green Tea with Ice Cream.     I was told that   Mango Cheesecake Bingsu   is one of the most popular item on the menu. Oh my, it is a sight to behold! A bowl of shaved ice is topped with sweetened condensed milk and freshly-cut m...

Grandma's - Authentic Singapore Food

Grandma's has been around for quite a while now but I only got the chance to try their food recently when the third outlet opened in Suntec City.        I remember having these prawn crackers when I was little. They are so easy and good to eat, I can finish a whole package of this in one sitting.     I don't usually order Malay food, but the Nasi Bukhari looked so good in the menu, I thought I will give it a try. Fragrant yellow turmeric rice is served with golden brown chicken leg which is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Prawns were fresh and succulent but I don't really like the sauce the prawns are cooked in. What really amazes me about this dish is the beef rendang.          I never knew Bo Bo Cha Cha is so such a delightful dessert until I tried it here at Grandma's. The warm and thick coconut tastes so good with chunks of sweet potato and yam. This is definitely comfort food that warms the heart.   Gr...
