This
little stall is simply the best udon in Ngee Ann City. Tsuru-Koshi
name is inspired from the Japanese words, Tsuru means silky and
smooth while literally means going down the throat well or
deliciously chewy (not soggy). So from this, we can expect smooth and
silky udon, and of course deliciously chewy.
The Stall |
Most
of the time, this place is always packed with people. But not to
worry, they turn the table quite fast. Firstly, you need to place an
order at the counter (menu is available on the wall or at the
counter), after you made payment and received your queue number, the
service staff will arrange a table for you. Anyway, just remember to
move your butts as soon as you finished with your meal.
My
Little Devil ('LD') ordered the original yet delicious Kitsune Udon
($7.50 + upsize $2). A simple udon dish, with clear shoyu broth and
sweet beancurd. The broth is clear but tasty. The udon is really the
star here, it is chewy, springy, but silky smooth. Just like as
described in the menu. Delicious!!
I
personally ordered Niku Shiru Udon ($10.50 + upsize $2). The udon is
served cold, accompany with warm soup and stewed Pork. This is on
special offering during the period, not on regular menu. The cold
udon taste more chewy and springy. You can dip in in the pork broth
before eating it or eat the udon first then drink the pork broth.
Whichever way you choose, they are just as nice, especially with
slices of pork belly in the broth.

We also tried their Mini Soboro Don ($5). Sonboro don is a minced chicken on rice. This dish is actually quite disappointing. The mince chicken serving is just measly, not even covered half of the bowl.
Overall,
if you are looking for something quick and delicious after your
shopping in Takashimaya, Tsuru Koshi is a must place to try. I called
Japanese Fast Food Udon. Cheers!!
