Taking a break from going to Ramen Champion, I visited Keisuke Tokyo today for my ramen fix.
It is one of my favourite ramen places in Singapore, but it is a little off the places that I usually go to so I don't frequent it that much.
Just happened that I was at Suntec, I decided pop by instead.
And they have further made some improvements since my last visit!
After sitting down, the attentive waitress passed me this order form to fill up.
Looking further down the form makes me understand what it exactly is for. After choosing the ramen that you would like to order, you can further customise your ramen using this form by indicating:
- Strength / thickness of the soup (3 levels)
- Amount of oil on the ramen (4 levels)
- Hardness of the noodles (4 levels)
- If you do not want any toppings due to preference (e.g. bamboo shoot, etc.)
While it seems to be possible to customise our ramen at some of the other ramen joints in Singapore, this is by far the most structured way in letting customers customise their ramen. I am further impressed by Keisuke's sophistication!
They seem to have added one more type of condiment to the existing ones - bonito flakes.
With this and others like spicy beansprout and chopped onion, there are even more room to play with your ramen.
I ordered the Tokyo Shio Ramen with egg ($13++) today.
I won't delve too deeply into the ramen today. But in short, it was a good bowl as per the usual Keisuke standard.
Last but not least, there was another surprise for me this visit...
Keisuke is going to open their 2nd outlet named "Tonkotsu King" in Tanjong Pagar on 8 Aug (Monday)!
The new shop is located at Orchid Hotel in Tras Link, near Tanjong Pagar MRT station.
Let's see if I have the time to pop by for lunch on Monday.
