Tamoya Udon & Tempura - Freshly-Made Sanuki Udon & Tempura

Just as Golden Mile Complex is known as "Little Thailand" and Lucky Plaza is known as "Little Philippines", Liang Court is known to many Singaporeans as "Little Japan". Liang Court is home to Meidi-ya Supermarket, Singapore's only Japanese supermarket (that is, before Don Don Donki came to Singapore). Liang Court organises many Japanese events and food fairs. Read TheSmartLocal's 10 Reasons Why Liang Court is the closest thing to Japan you can find in Singapore.

Liang Court is also host to a large number of Japanese restaurants. If you have problem deciding on where to eat, let me introduce you to a restaurant on level 1 of Liang Court called Tamoya Udon & Tempura. 

Tamoya Udon & Tempura - Restaurant Front

Tamoya Udon & Tempura hails from the Sanuki prefecture in Japan where they run a successful udon-chain. Tamoya Udon & Tempura in Liang Court is the one and only outlet in Singapore so far, and judging from the huge crowds on weekdays and weekends, I think it is pretty successful in Singapore too. It has been hailed by many established food bloggers as "the best udon in Singapore". 

Tamoya Udon & Tempura - Menu

Tamoya is famous for their udon but there are also two ramen options if you prefer ramen. There are altogether 9 udon options, all paired with their freshly-made udon. 

Tamoya Udon & Tempura - Beef Onsen Egg Curry Udon

This is Beef Onsen Egg Curry Udon [S$11.60], one of the signatures of this shop. Tamoya's thick chewy udon is topped with sweet Japanese vegetable curry, sukiyaki beef slices, onsen egg and pickles. The udon is thick and chewy and it tastes terrific when you eat it together with the sweet Japanese curry. The sukiyaki beef slices could be more tender but their gentle sweetness blends in well with the rest of the ingredients. 

Besides Beef Onsen Egg Curry Udon, Triple Egg Udon [S$9.80] is another dry udon that is prefect for egg lovers. There are also 7 other soup udon to choose from: Beef Udon [S$9.80], Sanuki Beef Egg Udon [S$11.20], Pork Udon [$S9.80], Kitsune Udon Oden Set [S$9.80], Pork Egg Udon [S$10.20], Tojiru Onsen Udon [S$10.20] and Black Garlic Tonkotsu Udon [S$10.80].

Tamoya is not only famous for its udon, it is famous for its tempura too. There are around 10 kinds of tempura to choose from (lesser variety between 2-5pm). Mushroom [S$1.20], Prawn [

Tamoya Udon & Tempura - Oden

Although Tamoya is not famous for oden, I couldn't resist getting a bowl. There isn't much choice, only egg/daikon/fishcake/beancurd skin, but I simply can't get enough of the simplicity of oden. It is S$1.20 per piece, or $3 for 3 pieces.

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...
