On one of the evening, we
decided to stop by Tampopo at Ngee Ann City for a quick grub before
we went for some shopping. At first, I set my mind for pork bone
ramen, at the end I end up with Kura Buta Feast. Black Pig or Kura
Buta Pork are known for their tender juicy meat that melts in your
mouth. The meat from this pig can be consider the best of the best.
For starter, we ordered
BP Gyoza (BP is short for Black Pig / Kura Buta) - $6.80 and Ceasar
Salad - $8.80. The Ceasar salad consist or Romaine Lettuce, cherry
tomatoes and salad dressing. It is simple, fresh and refreshing. The
BP Gyoza tasted clean, tender and melts in your mouth. The chilli oil
on top actually accentuate the flavour of the gyoza.

For Main, we had BP Ramen
- $15.30 and BP Sp Tokusen Loin - $31.80. The broth of the ramen is
milky in colour, due to the long process of boiling the pork bones.
It is thick, robust and full of flavour. The ramen is springy and
crunchy, al dente in ramen way. The egg was boiled to perfection,
where the yolk still ozzing and the char siew just melts in your
mouth. Yummyyyy!! A perfect bowl of Ramen!!
While I thought the ramen
made my day, I was surprised when I tried the Tokusen Loin. Although
it looks thick, I bite through it without any resistance. I don't
think melt is the right term, but the meat just disintegrate when it
touch your tongue. I might be exaggerating, however it is so much
tender and juicy compare to char siew. Supper yummmyyy!! Two thumbs
up!!

As we came in before the
dinner rush, we were able to get a seat comfortably. It take a while
before the waiter approach us to take our order and it is also a bit
difficult to get their attention when we need something.
Overall, Tampopo is the
place to go for quality ramen and yummy Kura Buta pork. Every time I
ate ramen I will always use Tampopo as the benchmark for quality. Cheers !!
