Kazan Ramen Lunch

It had been a long while since we came to this restaurant in Liang Court. We had a small lunch earlier in a sushi place nearby, when suddenly DH had a crave for Japanese curry. 

Both of us shared the food we ordered, they were a bowl of ramen, curry rice with fried chicken and gyoza. 

Ramen Lunch At Shoryu, Carnaby

We were walking along Carnaby Street looking for some shoes and we saw this ramen place, Shoryu. I was a bit hesitant because it was Friday and I do not eat meat. But DH wanted it and I was outnumbered, besides I could have a vegetarian option there. Which I did. My companies seemed to enjoy what they had and I thought mine would have been better if it is meat base. We also ordered Gyoza and Soft Shell crabs to share. Not bad for London!

Gyoza-Ya Lunch

There's a couple of new Japanese dining places at Robinsons' Orchard and one of them is Gyoza-Ya specialising in, of course, gyoza.  We, of course, had to try their gyoza. We thought the dumplings were really nice.

The two of us also tried their Chicken Karaage below, Seafood Fried Rice and Soboro Tofu. We'd like to go back and have more!

Tonkotsu Kazan Ramen

We went back to Tonkotsu Kazan Ramen at Liang Court for lunch. This time, there were four of us and we tried more different dishes. DH stuck on his favorite, Shoyu Ramen.

Miss K, who is currently a vegetarian (we'll see how long this last) had a bowl of fried rice served on hot stone, no pork or any meat, so it was practically garlic fried rice, I would think.

We had a palte of Gyoza, which probably was part of a set. I can't remember exactly which one it was.

I ordered their Kazan Curry  which was in a way like Ramen with Curry Sauce. This dish came with a bowl of white rice. It was absolutely too much for one person like me, to say the least.

Everyone declined when they were offered dessert, but since there were four of us, I took the liberty to order their attractive looking dessert anyway,  Mango with ice cream. When the dessert came, everyone sampled it. It was interesting and I am glad that I tried. It's alright but I do not think I will have it again in the future. It's a big serving.

Wagamama, Manchester

 

Years  ago, when we were in Manchester, we had lunch in Wagamama. On our last trip, I started thinking of this place again, but both of us, DH and I, could not remember the name of the restaurant, hence we could not quite google the address. I, however, still remembered the location, kind of. With the help from DH, to our surprise, we found it in the exact same spot. Imagine the joy we had! Aw.

Wagamama offers a nice selection of Japanese and Asian food.  DH had Chicken Katsu Curry and somehow I ended up with Cha-Chan (Fried Rice). We also ordered a plate of Gyoza. The portion was too large for me. The taste was not spectacular, but the whole experience was great. The service was good and the palce was clean.  It's a place that I'd like to go back to again when I am in town.

Ramen Lunch At Miharu

I like to have Ramen, but I don't like have it too often, especially when it is hot and humid around. Unlike DH who frequents Miharu Sapporo Ramen quite a bit. First of all, it is his favorite Ramen place, and second, it takes under five minutes to walk there from our place. It's too convenient.

Last Saturday, we had a perfect weather for having Ramen. I woke up to a cool morning and the weather remained nice and cool during the day. I gladly joined DH for lunch at Miharu. Both of us asked the waiter not to put corn in our Ramen, we just do not like the combination. He had fish-based Ramen (above) and I had miso-based one.

We also shared some Gyoza. As always. I was unable to clean up the bowl. It was too too much, again.
