Bab Noodle, Millenia Walk

I was not sure how to tag Bab Noodles. The restaurant does pseudo Japanese & Korean food and also local flavours (like sambal kang kong?!) and fusions. For what their name's worth, it's odd that half the available offerings comes defaulted with rice and for a change of that rice to noodles, would require one to top up $2 more.

Nothing in particular looked outstanding here so I landed myself a tori kaarage & stewed beef in BAB's Special sauce set ($11.90).


"Special" is a word like "authentic". Overused. And probably with no good reason. So it's tori karaage with some cold stiff stewed beef in a sauce that tasted bland. Food felt barely warm. Nothing Japanese about this set. With the exception of that chilli powder condiment at the table. Maybe that was a Japanese brand.


An unexpected ray of light on their menu call Spicy Crayfish Ramen. The taste was actually not bad. In spite of being a little thin, the sauce was quite delicious. Now if they could get better crayfish and make nicer noodles, this could just be superb. Do not quote me on this.
