Sanuki Udon @ Udon Kamon |
Eat

range of udon broths in Singapore, including shoyu-based dashi, tonkotsu, house
speciality Japanese spicy magma and tom yum.

Helmed
by Executive Chef Kamogi Noriyuki, Udon Kamon specialises in Sanuki Udon, the
most popular type of udon in the Shikoku region. Made with Japanese wheat
flour, salt and water, the noodles are thick, squarish and have flat edges. At
Udon Kamon, the noodles are freshly made daily.
We
visited Udon Kamon for a quick lunch. LD and I each have Sanuki Udon ($6.80).
It is one of the basic forms of udon, however, this will showcase the actual
quality of the ingredients.

The
udon is thick, bouncy and chewy. It glides through your mouth easily when you
slurp it. The shoyu-based dashi is on point. The umami flavours in the slightly
salty broth seasoned the udon nicely, together with a slice of fishcake,
chopped seaweed and spring onion it is a very comforting dish. Oishi!!

We
also ordered Mentai Takana Rice Bowl ($4.80). A medium-size serving of rice
bowl. Toppings on the rice include pickled leaf mustard, spiced cod roe, onsen
egg, seaweed, spring onions and bamboo shoot. Mixed it well, it produced a
firework in your mouth,

In
each bite, you can taste the tangy and crunchy flavour from pickled leaf
mustard and bamboo shoot, spicy and saltiness from the cod roe, creaminess of
the onsen egg, the briny flavour from the seaweed and intense spark from the
spring onion.
For
additional $2, we have fried chicken to accompany our meal. It is crispy
externally and juicy internally. I feel it can better if the chicken is saltier
and the skin is crispier.

I
also took a quick snap of a friend that is eating Prawn Tempura Udon ($10.80).
It looks so very attractive; I will consider trying this next time here.

Service
is friendly and the food comes very fast. The décor of the restaurant is simple
and zen like. The normally wooden tables and chairs seating are good for a
quick meal; however, I don’t recommend the sofa seating. It looks like you will
be in an uncomfortable position if you are seated at the sofa.

Overall,
Udon Kamon provides a good place to enjoy the Sanuki Udon. The food tastes good
and the price is pocket-friendly. I already anticipating my next visit to Udon
Kamon. Kanpai!! Cheers!!
